    Should I of 5D H.264 to ProRes?

    Posted by Kew Lin on August 10, 2011 at 10:40 pm

    Hello,
    I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 and I have some footage shot on Canon 5D Mark II. Premiere can edit the H.264 footage without having to render on every edit I make.

    Should I convert it to ProRes 422 anyway through a mac? This question arose when I heard that it is better to do compositing and colour grading on transcoded ProRes 422 footage even though there is no increase of quality.

    Can any experts here verify please?
    Cheers!

    Hi Kew,

    Nope, no need to convert. When you bring footage in Pr CS5, it’s upsampled to 4:4:4.

    That is great, instant verification, thanks!
    Anyone begging to differ?
