I have AVCHD footage from a Canon XA10, which was shot in standard interlaced 50i mode.
When using Log & Transfer to import it, it is encoded to ProRes 422 as 25p (field dominance is set to none in the clip properties). This is visibly wrong.

[Tina Hedegaard] "A solution could be to use clip wrapper to rewrap the AVCHD to h264, and then transcode it to prores."
That's an extra step - ClipWrap will transcode to ProRes without rewrapping first. ClipWrap also joins selected clips.
