I also can't find any video editor do Prores422 but the link I posted
support Prores422 conversion to other formats so you can start from there.

If they scan at 1920x1080 (of course Hi-8 is not in 16:9 so the horizontal
will be less) that would be great. I have seen some equipments just copy the
projected movie with a regular HD Cam, the quality is not convincing.
It looks that they also support output to HD CAM (suppose HDV format), it
should be editable with most video editing software. You can keep the
Pores422 as backup (one day you may find an editor to process it) and use
the HDV file for viewing and editing.
