I have a Sony RX100 III which I among other things use to shoot video.
The format options are either AVCHD or XAVC S which I understand is the higher quality option.
Everything looks smooth and great on the cameras lcd but when I import it to my Macbook Pro (2016) I get some problems.
Just playback in VLC looks fine, can't tell if it's really the way it's supposed to be but it's alright.
However when i try to edit in iMovie it's like the framerate drops a lot. I've heard that iMovie sometimes adjusts the whole project to the lowest framerate, but i've tried creating new projects and isolating the 50 p footage to exclude that possibility so I really don't know what causes this issue. The same result after exporting the project as well. Maybe it doesn't have to do with the framerate, just compability issues?
Anyway kinda ruins the camera for me.
The computer is the latest macbook pro and latest OS, iMovie etc etc, so I feel like it should be able to handle it.
Would really appreciate if someone could clear this up for me
