Best VPro9 transcode from mts for Movie Studio?

I use Vegas Pro 9b. I have a large number of mts files that client want to edit in Vegas Movie Studio. What would be the best format (reasonable size and quality) for me to transcode to for this client? I had thought mxf, but as far as I can tell Movie Studio doesn't support mxf.

I assume the MTS files are AVCHD. If they have Movie Studio and not Movie Studio Platinum then they can't handle HD of any kind because only the Platinum version is capable of HD. In that case, render them as DV Widescreen AVI files.

Thanks JR. I won't know until tomorrow whether they have Movie Studio or Platinum. If it is Platinum, what HD format would you recommend?

By the way, I plan to use my Production Assistant for the batch render.

PS: Is it possible to apply a color correction to selected clips in the Production Assistant batch transcode?

PSS: Yes, the mts files are AVCHD.

If it is the Platinum version - why not use the AVCHD files natively in there?
