  5d and final cut pro 7

  Posted by Edward Neary on June 24, 2010 at 7:42 pm

  Just bought the Canon 5D MarkII.

  Shot a wedding at 30P and I have a Matrox Mini connected to my computer.

  Here’s the workflow using FCP 7 on a MAC:

  upload cards with a USB Card Reader with Apple Pro Res 422 Setting (takes forever!!!)

  Wondering if I have to change settings on the Timeline? (Heard something about people shooting in 24P and changing the timeline settings to 24p in FCP).

  How do I send it out for internet video and dvd’s?

  Can this be downconverted to SD or is it all HD with this camera?

  Thanks

  After conversion to ProRes, when you drag the first file onto the Timeline, FCP should ask if you want it to set the timeline settings to match your clip. Answer yes. Workflows for YouTube, Vimeo, etc. have been discussed many times. Same for DVDs. Search and you’ll find your answers. Also check the FCP FAQ which also has a lot of info. You can always output SD from HD. Search for that, too. It’s all there.
