  Premiere Pro CS6 and Apple Pre Res Compatibility

  Posted by Jason Bradford on March 10, 2013 at 5:50 pm

  I have been shooting for a few years with a Panasonic AG-HPX170 and I am considering purchasing a Nikon D800 and possibly the Atomos Ninja 2 or Sound Devices Pix240. Both of these use the Apple Pro Res Codec. I use a Mac for editing with Premiere Pro CS6. My question is are these compatible, or is their a better option that you can recommend?

  Jason,

  I cut a lot of ProRes (HQ) 422 in PPro CS6. Currently I am editing transcoded media from RED footage to ProRes and it works wonderfully.

  PPro has no problems handling ProRes as a format. It’s smooth as butter.

  With either the Ninja or Pix240 you can record in ProRes or DNxHD. Both formats work fine in CS6. I use a Pix240 and record ProRes for several shoots per week.

  You can also get a Blackmagic HyperDeck Shuttle and record Uncompressed (as well as ProRes and DNxHD) if space is of no concern to you:
