Just in case you want to test AVCHD import before buying this camcorder.
Note that the clips below are from the PAL model. I used the HF100 with a 0.5x wide angle converter.
Original .mts file for direct import or for conversion using VoltaicHD from shedworx.com :
HF100_PF25_NEUTRAL.MTS (10MB)

Intel Mac users can mount this disk image to import the clip into iMovie 08:
HF100_SDHCcard.dmg (10MB)

Enjoy!
