Once Ingest is complete, START EDITING.
Oh.. but what about XDCAM HD Discs? Well there is something forthat too.

Sony has their own Logging software called XDCAM Transfer. Itworks much like Log & Transfer, but only with XDCAM Pro Discs andSxS Cards. Launch it from Final Cut by choosing Import->XDCAM.
If a ProDisc is mounted onyour computer it should show
up automatically, if not youcan add XDCAM HD or
XDCAM EX footage manually.
