Canon XF plugin
Posted by James Marshall on October 12, 2012 at 8:13 amMy new retina Mac with OS 10.8.2 is not allowing me to install Canon XF plugin for FCP 7.3
Any suggestion how I can get my c300 footage into FCP?
Thanks

October 12, 2012 at 3:30 pmYou can use the Canon XF Utility stand alone app (not the FCP plugin). It’s a crappy app but it rewraps the media into a standalone MXF file (which can then be transcoded into ProRes or whatever you need).
Or you can use Adobe CS6 – Prelude and Adobe Media Encoder read the format natively and can rewrap it. You can download the 30 day trial to test it out.

November 15, 2012 at 9:54 pmYou need to google Adam Wilt and 10.8.2 Basically you need to fool the installer into thinking its running on 10.7 not 10.8
We’re still waiting for Canon to come up with 10.8 s/w.

January 17, 2014 at 8:16 amSince Canon XF Plug-in can not help them, only the 1280*720 video accepted. It means you have to convert C300 MXF footages to Final Cut Pro compatible format ProRes 422 .mov with a top MXF Conveter for FCP. I used UFU Soft Mac MXF Converter, which can fast transcode SD MXF videos to Apple ProRes 422 for FCP on Mac OS X with best vido quality. and From this article,you can Learn More about Canon C300 MXF on FCP for editing.
