    Workflow Advice Needed – Canon 60D & Canon HV30 – 24P

    Posted by Russ Griffin on May 2, 2011 at 2:09 am

    Can someone offer some sage advice regarding an understandable workflow for importing and editing footage captured from a Canon 60D and Canon HV30? (Both cameras will be shooting footage in 24P.)

    Thanks very much!

    (I’m using Final Cut Studio 3.)

    Make sure to download the drivers for log and transfer on Canons website. Bring in and edit as ProRes.

    You may have to reverse telecine the hv30’s footage to get true progressive footage. I believe, like the hv20 that I own, the hv30 shoots 24p in a 29.97 interlaced wrapper. The hv40 is the first of the series that shoots native 24p.

    You can easily reverse telecine the footage via Compressor. I’d heartily recommend doing this before performing any editing.

    Will be anxious to hear your progress with the 60D. Hoping to save up for one of those

    Hi Dave,

    Thank you so much for your help. That’s exactly what I think I have to do with the HV30.

    So, this is how you do that, correct? https://support.apple.com/kb/HT2410

    p.s. – The 60D is great so far. Go get one! 🙂
