Upload Sony camera video to iPhoto, iMovie on Mac

Do you have a Sony camcorder, the Sony Handycam DCR-SR82, Sony Cybershot  or professional Sony HXR-MC50U? Have a headache on how to import them to iPhoto or iMovie? Yes, the problem is not only for you, many friends like you are meeting the same problem. The concrete example is Hi, "I've searched the forums but couldn't find anything that resembles my problem...I have a 1 month old Sony cybershot w85. After imported 9 rolls in iPhoto successfully, iPhoto says that most files are unreadable...It imports maybe 2 photo's and then i get an error: unreadable files?"


iPhoto is one app among the iLife’11 suite, usually we can upload video to iPhoto then sync it to iPad, iPhone, Apple TV related Apple devices. The Sony camcorders like Sony Sony HDR AVCHD 1080p: Sony CX 160, CX-550V, CX-100, CX-700, CX-150 record AVCHD format, Middle-end Sony Cyber-Shot like Cyber-Shot WX-9, Cyber-Shot W570 record AVI, MPEG-Motion format, and other Sony camera may record AVI format. And iPhoto natively supported format are MP4, H.264, DV, QuickTime MOV format, not the digital one, i.e. This Sany .MOV file is this kind Video: High compression MOV (Image: H.264; Audio: Linear PCM (Stereo)). Now you understand why it can’t be accepted by iPhone, iPad. This .MOV is different from common iPad, iPhone supported H.264.
