Best solution to convert sony pxw-z100 xavc video files to FCP X for editing

Not long ago Sony released the PXW-Z100 4K camcorder, which is mainly for pro shooters. This camcorder can record 4:2:2 10-bit (billions of colors) 4K video at up to 500/600Mbps at 50p/60p using its new XAVC format and high-speed XQD memory cards. Besides, HD recording is also available, it can record HD at 10-bit at a healthy 233Mbps for 50 or 60p video. Sony PXW-Z100 also has some striking features, like HDMI Interface for 4K Output and 3G HD-SDI Interface for HD Output, or Remote Control with WiFi.

For Mac users, you may like to edit Sony PXW-Z100 footages via editing softwares on Mac. It's a pity, you can't import XAVC video into Final Cut Pro, iMovie, FCE and Premiere etc. It is recommended that you convert Sony HPXW-Z100 XAVC video to MOV for FCP, and iMovie or convert PXW-Z100 video to WMV for Adobe Premiere. A good XAVC Video Converter shall be able to convert XAVC videos to any formats. I find UFUSoft XAVC Converter as the perfect solution. Here I take Final Cut Pro with the Mac XAVC converter for example.
