How to convert/upload/import Canon FS200/FS20 camcorder .mod files to wmv?

You got a Canon FS200 Camcorder and had a hell of a time trying to import the MOD file into your computer. You are running Vista/XP/Window7 and mod file isn't compatible. Is there an easier workflow to convert mod files into a better format for use on windows?

Canon FS200 and Canon FS20 camcorders are small flash memory based, standard definition, consumer grade camcorder that records "MOD" format video files. However, Windows Media Player cannot deal with them directly - and neither can Apple QuickTime.

Question1: I want to know if I will be able to convert and edit the canon FS200 .MOD file. Vista media player had no problem reading the file, but I am very disappointed with the video quality. So does this .mod file need to be digitally re-processed in order to get it to look the way its supposed to, or is the quality right out of the camera as good as it gets? Any thoughts?

Question2: Canon FS200 and .MOD files

I just bought a Canon FS200, and I have a PC. Everywhere I look I read that it's a great little camcorder except that it records in .MOD format. But no matter how much I look I simply can't find anyone who says how to fix this. But I know there has to be a simple way, or no one would ever buy this camera. I need to be able to edit. I would certainly love some help.

The easiest way to deal with MOD files is to convert them to something else, first.

Canon FS200 to WMV Converter is one of many video converters that can convert the Canon FS200/Canon FS20 MOD file into something your players can use (Windows Media Player likes AVI or WMV files; QuickTime likes MOV or MP4 files). Canon FS200 to WMV Converter also can convert from Canon FS200/FS20 .mod files to WMV, AVI, MPG, MP4, MOV, 3GP, RM, FLV, SWF for uploading and playback on Windows 7, Vista and XP.

If you want to edit the video in MovieMaker, WMV is probably your best bet.
