If you are the user of FCP, maybe usually this problem will puzzle you:
when importing MTS from the HDcam or SD card, it will take a lont time to Rrender. So,maybe you will ask: What is Render? Why it’s necessary to render when importing AVCHD MTS to FCP?

What is render?
It is easier to apply several different effects to video. Most editing programs come with a vast assortment of effects. However, without the process of rendering, it would prove to be a frustrating experience to work with those effects, eg, the video playback would be choppy because the computer would have to compute the video and the effects separately.
To understand the render in simple way: your computer calculating things, to get a result. This can be many things like:
-Rendering to show you a preview of effects.
-Rendering to change from one format to another format.
-Rendering heavy effects or color correction.

Why need Render when importing AVCHD MTS to FCP?

Even you can import MTS to FCP, FCP doesn’t have the native support on AVCHD MTS files. FCP will transcode/render MTS AVCHD footages to Apple Prores of MOV on the background. When these MTS files are lying in FCP, actually they are not AVCHD HD MTS files any more but MOV. That is why it will take a little big longer time to put MTS to FCP. Here rendering means transcoding.  

How to avoid the render when importing to FCP?
