Importing media to Avid MC from the New Sony FS7 Camera

[Robert Ober]

[Michael Phillips] “Thanks Robert – a nice concise step by step for “dailies”. One thing I try to avoid is any AAF for clips that have audio tracks. I have found it to be very hit and miss. Video only seems to work well.

Other considerations for users is whether you want to to work at camera source resolution or at project resolution as they may not be the same. If working at anything above HD you will want to select DNxHR.”

Hello,

Thanks for taking a look at it, much appreciated. I put your comments on the page with credit and a link to 24p/wordpress. Maybe the long holiday will allow me to outline the trip back and why I believe it is important.

I am still surprised at how may folks recommend transcoding workflows that don’t allow one to reconnect to the camera originals for grading/finishing. Some of the ol Pros should know better. As you know, some if not many, of the codecs and/or containers that Avid does not support are supported in Resolve and other apps that allow one to trip back and connect to the cam originals.

Ok, …off the box;-)

By the way, I have not had issues with audio coming from Resolve that I can recall.

Y’all have a good something,
Robert
