Nope. Afraid not. Vegas 6 is the only NLE under $1000 that will take both DVCAM and IMX50 XDCAM files out of the box. Edius I believe only takes IMX50 but not the DVCAM files, unless they have updated the software since I last looked.

actually edius has been editing dvcam files since version one...i don't have vegas 6 yet i heard it had mxf plugin for xdcam decks is that the same as xdcamHD? if so thats great news...

No, I'm talking about DVCAM MXF files from the XDCAM not standard DVCAM files.

XDCAM records two formats. DVCAM and IMX50, and places them in MXF wrapper files. Edius could only read the IMX50 variation of these XDCAM files the last I researched.

Vegas doesn't need a plugin for XDCAM. It accepts it as standard now. It doesn't accept XDCAM HD files yet though.

ahh i see so edius is the only under $1000 that will edit xdcam hd files...

Umm no. I don't think Eduis 3 accepts XDCAM HD files either. Maybe after NAB.

sure does it has been for the last two months...

There's nothing on the Canopus site that says anything about XDCAM HD. Only support for XDCAM SD (and the last time I researched it for an article for Showreel they only supported the IMX variation).
