5D Mk2 set to 1920×1080 24fps but files are 1280×720

Darren,

The original Canon 5D Mark II’s about 5 years ago came only with NTSC American video speeds, which was fixed by a Firmware Driver Download from Canon’s web site.

This Firmware Update fixed more than NTSC to Pal operating and made the camera very easy to use for Australian Broadcast other wise you did a speed conversion on the timeline .

This may be your problem.Phone Canon to see if your camera is current.

I do not know what this problem is, but I can tell you what it is not…

This is not a Premiere issue. Premiere does not in any way shape or form change the resolution, size, or properties of a clip that is imported… no matter what your project settings or timeline specs are. It simply cannot happen, it doesn’t work that way. Files are imported “as is,” they are not changed, transcoded, or modified in any way by Premiere through the act of importing them.

Even if you had a Premiere sequence set to the lowest possible frame size and resolution, and with some different frame rate, when you import, say, a 1080 23.976 clip it will still be a 1080 23.976 clip when you import it, and it will still have those specs after you put it on a timeline.

If you have these “incorrect” file specs not only in Premiere, not only on the one computer, and on multiple ways of viewing the clip (say, just watching it in something like VLC player), then that is what the clip specs are… nothing is happening to it.

I’d say it is obviously a camera issue… I’m 99% sure of that. Either the record specs are not set to what you think they are, or there is a camera problem that is causing the clips to be recorded at specs that are different than what your settings are.
