According to the latest record from Amazon, Sony PMW-F5 is enjoying the fastest-growing sales in the first quarter of 2013. It surprised no one since we all know that PMW-F5 has got splendid features and stunning capability of shooting HD videos. XAVC was a video format developed by Sony, targeting at pushing the development of 4K videos in both consumer and professional industry. It can support videos of 4K resolution（4096×2160 and 3840×2160). Both Sony PMW-F5 and PMW-F55 camcorders take XAVC as the default format. At present, there is not much application/software capable of supporting XAVC footages: Adobe Creative Suite 6, Avid, Final Cut Pro X, Grass Valley, Quintal, Rovi Main Concept SDK and Sony Vegas Pro 12.
