The Canon XC10 is a compact, lightweight video and digital stills camera that brings professional 4K quality to aspiring filmmakers and enthusiasts. It can record UHDTV standard (3840 x 2160) 4K footage to an internal CFast 2.0™[i] card at up to 305Mbps - or Full HD (1920 x 1080) footage to an SD card at up to 50Mbps, with pro-standard 4:2:2 colour sampling for high resolution performance.

Canon’s new XF-AVC H.264 codec supports recording in both 4K and Full HD quality, enabling easy integration into industry-standard Non-Linear Edit systems.

However, MXF files are not the ones that can be recognized by Premiere Pro or Avid Media Composer. Up to now, Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 seems to work fine if you import your MXF footages directly from cameras, but if you have already copied MXF recordings to your HDD or you download them from somewhere, the importing error may jump out.

In fact, before getting Canon XC10 4K MXF files into Avid Media Composer/Premiere Pro, we'd better convert MXF to DNxHD MOV or MPEG-2 first. these formats will allow you to drop your 4k MXF files directly into Media Composer , Adobe Premiere without rendering.
