Transfer Video from Sony Camcorder to iPad
Have some great video clips filmed with your Sony camcorder? Don’t you want to recall the best moments on the big screen of your iPad? Basically, when you have taken a video clip with your camcorder, you can transfer the video file to your computer for playback. However, camcorders like Sony and Panasonic capture video in the AVCHD format. It is a file-based format for the digital recording and playback of high-definition video and for use in high definition consumer camcorders. Some Windows 7 editions are able to import and play AVCHD video natively, having files with extensions M2TS, MTS and M2T pre-registered in the system, while others do not support AVCHD files itself and you must install a third-party player. The default media player from Apple (QuickTime) will not play AVCHD natively.
The playback of AVCHD files on PC or Mac is not so easy, not to mention to play them on the Apple iPad. So how can we transfer the recorded AVCHD files to iPad for playback? Here, we simply need Video Converter App to get this done.
