Import/Play MTS on Quicktime Media Player from Panasonic GH-HMC70 1080i AVCHD

Panasonic AG-HMC70 records videos in AVCHD 1080i (1440 x 1080) format. It complies with the latest H.264 motion image compression standard, which forms the basis of the AVC-Intra codec used by P2 HD broadcast systems, and employs the High Profile standard to improve compression efficiency. When you connect AG-HMC70 to iMac, the Apple computer does not recognize the AVCHD files.

So how can you backup the movies on Mac and play AVCHD on Mac QuickTime any time you want?
