   AVCHD SUCKS!! Why do they keep using this codec in new cameras?? People at my store return these crap cams 3-6 times a day. absolutely Rubbish and choppy pictures full of artifacts.

   Take my advice stick with HDV. Tape. It has a fast bitrate and better picture.

   AVCHD is the future of video codecs. HDV is dead. AVCHD started out in consumer cameras but has now moved into more professional cameras like Panasonic’s HMC150. HDV is mpeg2. Which was designed for delivery of DVDs. Canon and Sony just engineered a way to capture it to tape. AVCHD was designed for image acquisition. The choppy pictures and artifacts from the cameras being returned are due to a small chip in the camera, not the codec. AVCHD will soon replace HDV tape cameras.

   While mostly correct, I can probably edit the same footage using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 on a Core i7 950 (which is quite cost efficient), with one of nVidia’s Quadro series for boosted editing performance for about the same price, and look just as good.

    Guys FYI… This video was uploaded 2 years ago… For sure by this time almost all the editing software can edit your AVCHD with the right hardware…

    Hands down…

    Adobe CS4 is the most powerful multimedia software today…

    I have recently purchased an AVCHD camera and at first I was extremely happy and thought how great it is to have an HD camera….UNTILL I tried to do anything with it. If u want to edit the footage it starts a huge problem and to me any camera beign sold with AVCHD shoud have a warning sticker. Why should consumers b forced to buy yet another product (software) just to do some thing as simple as edit. AVIOD AVCHD CAMERAS, save up an extra 2 or £300 and buy a better camera

    @buggerbuns I hate it too. Editing AVCHD is a resource hog and I am forced to try new editing programs. I hate it! I am going back to miniDV.

    A little disappointing that a video about AVCHD editing should be out of focus and have very poor sound.

    AVCHD editing is virtually impossible on a Duo Processor Pc with 2 GB of Ram.

    I have a Panasonic HDC-HS300
    Updated my machine to i5, 3gb ram, 1tb HD, Nvidia Gforce gts250.
    Bought power director 8 and Adobe Premiere Elements.
    It was a waste of money believe me.
    Power Director 8 is the best of all but needs some updates.
    Premiere Elements take a lot of time and resource.
    My tip
    Get away from AVCHD
