Import Sony F65 MXF to Premiere Pro CS6/CS5/CS4/CS3 on Mac/Windows

Can't import Sony F65 MXF video to Adobe Premiere Pro smoothly? In this article will give you the answer how to load and ingest Sony MXF footage to Adobe Premiere Pro CS6/CS5/CS4/CS3 for smooth editing. 

Sony F65 users include some of the most world's most demanding cinematographers. It's an advantage you can exploit no matter what your delivery format: true 4K, supersampled 2K or supersampled HD.



I have 4K footage shot on the Sony´s F65 I'd like to composite with in Premiere Pro. The files are saved in an MXF container.It seems that cs6 natively desn´t support this file, is there a plug-in available for Sony's SR RAW codec? Thanks in advance!
Many nonlinear editing programs including Adobe Premiere Pro (CS6/CS5/CS4/CS3) don't support importing MXF encoded files directly. So here comes up the question: how can we import Sony F65 MXF recordings to Premiere Pro without any problems?

Method 1. Sony MXF plug-in. Use the plugin to create a single MXF file of your spanned clips on the memory card and import the new file into the project.
Method 2. To solve the incompatible trouble you’d better change Sony F65 MXF a native format for importing to Premiere Pro (CS6/CS5/CS4/CS3). To get the best quality with 5.1 sound, you can MXF to MPG. If you also want to play it with QuickTime, you can reformat MXF to MOV videos. If you want to get a smaller file for quickly editing, you can encode Sony F65 MXF to WMV.

As you seen above, Pavtube MXF to Premiere Pro Converter for Mac is the best choice for you, and it is capable to convert Sony F65 P2 MXF to Premiere Pro efficiently and stably.
