Finally Premiere Pro comes of age with CS5.5 and we now have an AVCHD preset for 1080 50p which is just on time for the new camcorder from Sony, the NX70 which has 1080 50p built in.

It only remains for us to see if Final Cut Pro 10 is equipped with the same preset though I have no doubts that it will have. The major fly in the ointment is the boxes that ingest and output video to my monitor the AJA io HD, as yet it has no preset for 1080 50p, I hope AJA address this otherwise I move over to Matrox.
