You seem to know your stuff. I too am having trouble playing the footage from the Canon 5D. I’ve edited tons of stuff on my system including Red footage without issue but I am experiencing stuttered play and dropped frames. It is impossible to edit the piece without seeing the proper flow of the shots. I am running FCP 7 (newest version) On standard leopard. I noticed a couple of things that seem odd to me. The sequence setting chose ODD for the field dominance, isnt this progressive footage? Shouldnt it be none? Also, the frames is 30? Why are you telling people to convert it to 29.97? Any advice would be great.
