The Sony PXW-X160 is designed for use in broadcasting, production facilities and on corporate and event productions. It can record in XAVC Intra and Long GOP, enabling 10-bit sampling for HD recordings with a long tonal range, and also the MPEG HD422 at 50 Mbps format now used frequently in broadcast and production. It records in MPEG HD420 at 35 Mbps, AVCHD and DV formats as well. While, there are a few issues when it comes to viewing, importing and editing Sony PXW-X160 XAVC files in non-linear editing software like Adobe Premiere. Luckily, I've figured out an effective way to import Sony PXW-X160 raw footage to Premiere Pro flawlessly. Share as below.
