Well, for the question, the previous version After Effects CS4/CS5/CS6 has not yet been updated for 4K support. What's more, due to the format limit, we can't edit all kinds of 4K video files like 4K MP4, 4K MOV, 4K MXF, etc in After Effects flawlessly. How to solve the issues?
Just to experiment I used Brorsoft MXF Converter for After Effects to convert the C300 MKII 4K MXF to MPEG-2 and surprisingly it works perfectly in Adobe AE.
This video app can help you change XF-AVC MXF into a different format (e.g. .mov, .wmv, .mpg) with least quality loss. You should then be able to import the new file into After Effects with smooth editing without any trouble. If you are Windows users, please get the MXF Video Converter. Below is how to.
