You can not edit .mxf video files in Premiere Elements.

Your Canon XF100 is a $4000 professional camcorder. You'll have much more success editing this video with a professional program, like Premiere Pro CS5, rather than trying to edit it with a $75 consumer product.

Sounds like you work for Adobe...I know you can't use .mxf just wondering if you can convert and use. Elements will do everything I need to do. I don't edit feature films. I also know how much my camera was($3000), and elements was $100...none are the issue. Just wanted a program a little less in depth to do quick editing with, I'm new at this.

And no, chevy, I do not work for Adobe.

But I've been helping people out on these forums for several years, and I know that the program is designed to work with consumer camcorder formats. People who've to use pro or non-camcorder formats usually just end up frustrated.
