Yes, I was playing with the Canon the other day (thinking about
purchasing one) and the media imports fine into MCS 3.5, OSX.
Have to think WinXP/MCS4 is the same.
It's not AMA, but the import goes very fast -- did not formally
time it, but it seemed to be just the time needed for a copy of
the file. If I recall (this was 3 weeks ago) you had to select
the mxf files of the clips individually -- and since each clip is
nested inside its own folder, it was a bit of a pain. (But I also
was testing AMA on a 5.5 seat we have, too, and had a little
trouble making it work right away.... I may be remembering having
to select clips inside their individual folders from the AMA
tests...)
