Convert/Import Canon HF M300 MTS Videos to ProRes for Final Cut Pro X with High Quality on Mac

Canon FCP X-Transcode/Edit Canon HF M300 MTS to ProRes 422 for FCP X

To save the storage space of my Canon HFM300 and shoot more ,I used to copy the videos I like from the camcorder to my Mac and delete the others. Recently I want to edit the videos I shot in my graduation year with FCP X and then share the MP4 videos on youtube. The problem is that I do not have the whole BDMV folder and therefore, cannot import MTS Videos to FCP X on Mac. I tried many products and thanks to Aunsoft Final Mate for Mac - 2011 Best Import and Edit Software, it helps me solve the problem. Following I am very glad to share my experience of importing MTS files with Aunsoft Final Mate for Mac and Import and Convert MTS files to Apple ProRes for editing on FCP X.
