Convert/Compress Panasonic LX7 1080 50p/60p MTS to AIC for editing MTS footages in iMovie/FCE

Summary: MTS to AIC Converter: This article will show “How to change or Compress Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 1080 50p/60p MTS to AIC Codec for iMovie or Final Cut Express editing on Mac Mountain Lion, Mac OS X Lion, etc.
 
Welcome to my blog. As a Camera fan, I often attention the latest release of the Camera. On Jul 18, 2012, Panasonic announced the 10MP DMC-LX7. The route it has chosen is to retain the same form-factor but add the fastest lens we’ve yet seen on a compact camera. Its 24-90mm equivalent optic has an aperture range of F1.4-2.3. To make the most of the fast lens, Panasonic has added an aperture ring around the lens barrel, alongside a 3-stop neutral density filter that has its own external control point. The lens also employs Panasonic’s Nano Surface Coating to reduce flare and ghosting.

60p (NTSC) / 50p (PAL) Full HD Video Recording
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 records high-resolution full-HD 1,920 x 1,080 60p (NTSC) / 50p (PAL) videos in AVCHD Progressive (MPEG-4 / H.264) format. Upgrading the full HD recording capability from interlaced to progressive, subjects with fast motion or fine details are reproduced even more clearly.

Twice the Information of Interlace Recording
1080/60p / 1080/50p (progressive) conveys about twice the information of 1080i (interlace) recording. It creates intricate detail and silky smooth motion. Even when subjects move quickly, afterimages are minimized to create more natural images.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 Key Features

• Fast F1.4 – F2.3, 24-90mm equivalent lens
• Built-in 3 stop neutral density filter
• 10.1 MP multi-aspect ratio ‘High Sensitivity MOS’ sensor (1/1.7″-type, 12.7 MP total)
• ISO 80-12800
• Aperture ring around lens barrel, combined ND/manual focus control on rear
• 11 fps continuous shooting, 5 fps with AF tracking
• 920K dots 3″ screen with Anti-Reflective coating
• Full HD 60p/50p video, built-in stereo microphones
• Port for DMW-LVF2 accessory electronic viewfinder

Canon H.264 MOV to FCP Converter-Convert Canon 650D (Rebel T4i) MOV to ProRes for FCP

Categories:

Final Cut Pro

by

Canon’s entry-level ‘Rebel’ series has enjoyed continuous success in its film and digital incarnations for more than two decades. And Canon EOS 650D appears to be designed to meet these challenges head on, with new features aimed at improving its live view and video performance. Firstly, it becomes Canon’s first SLR capable of continuously tracking and maintaining focus on a moving subject while recording movies. This may not sound like a big deal – lots of cameras claim to be able to do so.

Canon 650D (Rebel T4i) videos are saved in 1080p30 .mov with H.264 as video codec and stereo sound with internal or external mics. Other cameras in ‘Rebel’ series, like Canon EOS 550D (Rebel T2i), Canon EOS 600D (Rebel T3i), and Canon EOS 1000D (Rebel XS) also records videos in H.264 MOV format. But this MOV video format came from EOS 650D is a FULL HD format that is highly compressed, its mov formats can not easily and directly import and edit on Mac with FCP, FCP X, iMovie, FCE, Avid, etc .

To edit recorded MOV footages in FCP, Apple Prores video is highly recommended because you can enjoy a smoother and faster editing process. Pavtube’s HD Video Converter for Mac, a top Mac Canon h.264 MOV Converter for FCP, released by Pavtube is a excellent tool to transcode MOV to Apple Prores.

For Canon EOS camera users, it is a best choice to import MOV footage from Canon DSLR to FCP.

Step 1. Load H.264 .mov footage to Canon T4i MOV Converter. 
Transfer h.264 encoded .mov files from Canon T4i camcorder to your Mac HDD via USB cable. Run Pavtube HD Video Converter for Mac as a  Canon H.264 MOV to FCP Converter, and click the “Add” button to load .mov footage.

Step 2. Set a FCP friendly codec (e.g. Apple ProRes 422) as export format.
Click on “Format” bar and set a FCP friendly codec in dropdown-list. You are advised to follow “Final Cut Pro” template and choose “Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)” as export format. H.264 codec has a much higher compression ratio than Apple ProRes, so the ingested files are significantly larger than the original files. If you prefer smaller file size, choose “Apple ProRes 422 (LT) (*.mov)” instead. The “Apple ProRes 422 (Proxy) (*.mov)” format offers file size at SD levels and is recommended for 480i/p and 576i/p shootings. The Apple Intermediate Codec (*.mov) under “QuickTime Movie Format” template is recommended as an optional format for converting Canon T4i MOV files to Final Cut Pro.

Step 3. Set possible best quality for FCP editing.
Click the “Settings” button and customize proper video/ audio parameters if necessary. Video size, bitrate and fame rate are flexible and can be adjusted as you like. E.g. Set video size to 1920*1080 when you feel like to keep 1080p as the source file features. Or set “original” in video bitrate drop-down list to keep best quality. You may skip this step as well as default format works well with FCP too.

Step 4. Start the process to Convert Canon Rebel T4i(650D) mov files to ProRes 422 for FCP workflow by clicking the big “Convert” button.

Tips: Before you try to do the conversion, if you are also a FCP X user, please make sure that you have installed the Apple ProRes Codec manually since the FCP X asks users to install it by themselves.

Once the conversion is finished, you can click “Open” button to get the output files effortlessly. Now you have got it right, feel free to import and edit converted  load Canon Rebel T4i 650D mov files to Final Cut Pro.

Additional editing features of the Pavtube Canon MOV to ProRes Converter:

Solutions to the problems with Canon XF Plugin for Final Cut Pro

Categories:

Final Cut Pro

by

Canon developed Canon XF Utility for exclusive use with movies captured with the XF camcorders (XF305/300/105/100) and Cinema EOS C300 camera. The Canon XF Utility offers various options for managing and playing back clips recorded with the camcorder with which the software was supplied. Mainly, Canon XF Utility lets you do the following:

* Checking and playing back clips – Display a list of all the clips recorded on a CF card, search the list and play back clips.

* Saving and writing back clips – Save clips that were recorded on a CF card to the computer, or write back preciously saved clips from the computer onto a CF card.

* Creating and editing User Memo profiles – Create, edit and save User Memo profiles on SD memory cards. Later, you can load a User Memo file from the SD memory card to the camcorder and embed this information with the clips you record.

Canon XF plugin helps users a lot while importing Canon .MXF footage to work with non-linear video editing programs. However, users still have problems one or another when utilizing the software, especially with Final Cut Pro on Mac OS X. We have a collection of frequently asked questions about Canon XF Plugin for Final Cut Pro here, and aim to provide available solutions to these issues.

Problem 1

“We are using FCP 7, and as far as I know it does not read Canon C300 files natively. We tried Canon XF utility, with very limited success, on few different machines. Main problem with that piece of software is that it expects to see compact flash cards straight from the camera and doesn’t seem to work very well with folders on an HDD. Is there a recommended workflow for us to move MXF files from an HDD to FCP 7?”

Solution to Problem 1: It is strongly suggested to convert MXF clips to Apple ProRes 422 using Pavtube Canon MXF Converter software, because FCP 7 needs to have all the footage on a timeline in the single codec, otherwise it needs to render everything and does not preview clips in realtime. The Canon Camera Video Converter tool is able to load MXF files directly from your camera, or read from a folder stored on your computer’s HDD or an external hard drive, as well as separate .MXF clips out of the camera’s original folder structure. Plus, this solution is particular helpful when you need combine footage coming from different cameras with different video modes. Best of all, it is capable of keeping multiple audio tracks in your source material.

Problem 2

“Hi, I am about to begin editing a film shot on Canon XF100. I have a hard-drive onto which all of the raw files were dumped, and am now trying to find a way of working with the files. As far as I can make out everything was copied as it should be (i.e. with the directory structure intact):

I have installed the Canon XF plugin for FCP. Problems arise when I try to use Log & Transfer to transcode the MXF material. I have tried Native/Pro Res 422/ ProRes LT/in fact all of the options from the drop down destination menu, and keep getting the same problem: namely, that about 80-90 percent of files are only transcoded in part. What I mean is that a 5 minute clip ends up as only 10 seconds. I have FCP 7.0.3 and the relevant Canon XF plugins…Now I’m at a loss as to what to do… Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can start editing this film on FCP?”

Solution to Problem 2: It seems that Canon XF utility somehow messed up when rendering the MXF media for use in Final Cut Pro 7. We heard people have troubles with EOS plugin of similar nature. Can we L&T footage without utilizing Canon plugin? Actually, there are a large number of Canon MXF converter programs claiming to be good at transferring MXF media files to Apple ProRes 422 for FCP. The thing is that it’s difficult to make audio and video always in sync in the generated ProRes MOV files. As for video and audio synchronization, Pavtube Canon MXF Converter does a good job. So, it’s wise to use this software for MXF to FCP ProRes codec conversion.  

Problem 3

“I especially get confused when I need to download the plug-ins from the Canon site, which is a real mess! I have MXF footage shot on the Canon C300 and I’m trying to convert it from true 24p to ProRes 422(HQ) 23.976. Does anyone know an easy-to-use converter to do this?”

Solution to Problem 3: Pavtube Canon Video Converter will shed you some light on this problem. More than encoding true 24p C300 MXF files to ProRes 422(HQ) 23.976, it can also rewrap MXF to PrpRes 422, ProRes LT, ProRes Proxy, and ProRes 4444 to fit different FCP use.

Problem 4
“I’ve run into a problem with a project. I copied the entire card file structure of XF305 onto a hard drive, installed all the right codecs…and it’s telling me the file structure is invalid.”  

Solution to Problem 4: Final Cut Pro users often meet unknown errors when editing Canon MXF clips. Fortunately, we always have workaround to deal with these incompatible issues. Simple convert MXF files recorded by a Canon camera to Apple ProRes 422 via using a Canon MXF Converter, this is the simplest solution.

Basically, with the versatile Canon Camera Video Converter, it will be possible to let Final Cut Pro touch MXF material shot on a Canon XF305/300/105/100 and C300 camera even without utilizing Canon XF plugin.
