Day 1 with Final Cut Pro 7 not going well….Any assistance is appreciated….
Hello to all. I am brand new to the forum and to FCP.
I have been using Premiere for a while and decided to switch.
I have a Sony PMW EX1-R and I am using the Lockable Card Reader with Lexar SD card (as opposed to SxS) for recording. I formatted the card per Sony’s instructions.
I cannot get the footage into the FCP preview screen no matter what I do.
I have done the software updates and even downloaded a plug in from Sony’s website to try and fix the issue, but still nothing.
When I play the footage in the camera, it works perfectly. When I import it to Premiere CS5 it works perfectly.
Can anyone tell me how I need to set my camera settings and my FCP settings so I can get the footage in somehow? in .mov if possible?
Thanks in advance,
George

You must install the “SONY transfer” application and read carefully this;
