Transfer files from panasonic camcorder (HDC-HS300)

Hi there -

I am using the new Panasonic HDC-HS300 Camcorder that records in the AVCHD format. All working fine. I loaded up my Final cut express software, all fine - but I can't seem to get the vide that I recorded into the software. I haveconnected the USB from camcorder to Mac etc but nothing is being transferred. It seems that all I am getting from the Camcorder is 'Thumb.TDT' & 'Thumb.TID' files, which when I drag into FCE 4 it says unsupported or not a known file....Maybe the actual video files or somewhere else?. It seems to be a bit of a task to get this up and running or probably just my own lack of experience. I remember using a simple digital camera with video facilities and as soon as I plugged it in to the mac, the files were opened right away in imovie. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions, tips or help.
