Sorry I was not clear…I am using a card reader so let’s table that. But…your suggestion of creating another folder is interesting workaround (though a ridiculous extra step in the grand scheme of things).

I will give that a try…or do the importing using the EOS Plug in in FCP 7 (to get my selects and make a .dmg file of the whole card) then restarting my lion/FCPX drive and simply importing the “Capture Scratch” file I created using the EOS Plug in.

To not be able to import from camera (or more precisely from the card in a reader) from a 5DMk3 is…dumb.

Uh, Not for nothing but I can tell the difference between my camera and a card in a card reader.

So you are saying that there are demons in my camera and I was able to do something you are not supposed to be able to do?

Thanks for all the input…importing works fine now. I have no idea why it did not before as I followed the normal procedure. Works now so thanks.

Thanks for the link Chris. Your post reminded me that I actually have an FX factory plug in with Globes (one of the Japanese plugs). I just checked and that particular plug does work in Motion 5. I know exactly what I can do and am good to go. Thanks again!

Even though I am still wiggling my way through the new interface, your “instructions” worked flawlessly. I have another question though, I am on and early 2009 Mac Pro with a stock video card. The performance of Motion 5 is on the slow side…and when I add a filter like Volumetrix is slows to molasses.

If I thought there was a new killer Mac Pro on the way soon I would wait…but absent that I assume I need to swap out the stock card with an ATI Radeon HD 5870 Graphics Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro (Mid 2010 or Early 2009) at the low low price of $449. Yes?

Mark…

I can say with absolute confidence that no matter what way I think it should be done in Motion I’ll be wrong about 70% of the time. Thanks for the course correction.

Thanks guys…seems kind of silly that you have to trick FCPX but whatever works, right?

Nope…

In addition to easing over to FCP X…it’s clean installed on a fresh drive with Lion as the OS…so there are numerous mysteries, Image Capture notwithstanding.

It occurred to me that there are about 5 stills on this card…so I guess that’s why Image Capture is intruding on the process. But I do close it and it just keeps popping back up. I’ll go shoot a clean card with only video to take that of the equation.

Thanks…
