L&T is a lot like Avid's AMA. It's a plug-in API that camera manufacturers can use as a hook to get files into FCP. I think it's mainly up to the camera manufacturers to write the code for their appropriate drivers. In some cases, there's the option to transcode and in other cases it's only a rewrap into QT.

FCP natively supports the codecs used for XDCAM, HD, EX, but not the native file wrappers. Since Sony's utility does the rewrap, but L&T doesn't, I presume it's because Sony is dragging its feet.
