AVCHD Lite Support in iMovie 09 - Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3

Hi,
When I import AVCHD Lite movies from the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3, they don't import correctly and have skips. Anyone know what's going on? Is the AVCHD Lite codec not supported by iMovie '09?

This may or may not help you, but I have read that the ZS3 records at 30fps but it outputs at 60fps through frame doubling. I am not sure exactly how it does this but I believe it is a flag.
I have also read that iMovie does not read the flags correctly to frame double the clip which is why your 39 second clip is outputting at double the speed and completing in 20 seconds.
I also read that it is possible to get iMovie to correct this, but I can not remember the precise steps. You may google for it. Basically it goes like this. You import the movie using iMovie and save it. Then close iMovie. Then you select the movie and (and this is the bit I do not remember) somehow modify a frame rate setting to correct it from 30fps to 60fps. Then open iMovie again and apparently it plays correctly.
Sorry I could not be more help, but god luck with google and hopefully I have given you a few pointers to follow up on.

  • Oh no- new update and still no support for my panasonic lumix dmc-lx2-

    sorry, but i was writing several support-mails and hoped so much, that this new camera could be supported. no way.
    how can it be, that the »Panasonic Lumix DMC-L1« is supported, but the dmc-lx2 not? are the raws different?
    i don't get it…

    Read the slightly newer topic by Pat Gilmour "Lumix DMC-LX1 RAW......" and you can see it is feasible, if not convenient. Note that for the LX2 you have to follow the instructions for the LX1 but write LX2 instead. It works a beauty for me

  • Does Aperture support RAW files from a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ27 camera?

    Please can anyone let me know whether Aperture supports RAW files from a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ27 camera? The Apple Aperture site lists support for DMC-F35 and other later cameras but does not allow a search for others.
    Many thanks.
    John

    Only the cameras on this list are supported:  Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
    Th FZ27 is not.
    For my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 I am using Adobe's free DNG Coverter to convert the RAW files to DNG. It does not always work, but for most of the RW2 files I can work in Aperture this way. The stubborn files I convert to TIFF.

  • Support for Panasonic Lumix DMC G3K

    I have recently bought the Panasonic Lumix DMC G3K and discovered that neither LR or CS5 will support the raw files. The irony is that LR is part of the package when you buy this camera before the end of Aug. When will Adobe support this camera?

    Adobe releases regular update with new camera support. One ought to be along before too long.

  • Support for Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8

    Is Apple planning to support RAW for the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 in Aperture? Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom provide support for this camera.
    Any ideas?

  • LightRoom Support For Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000 camera/lens

    The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000 has been listed as a supported camera since at least LightRoom 5.6 and the equivalent Adobe Camera Raw version. 
    I have both LR 5.7 and LR CC2015.  In the Develop Module, Lens Correction area, there is no Panasonic camera/lens listed in the drop-down list of Profiled cameras in order to enable profile corrections.
    LR does display the Panasonic RAW files without having to convert to another format, but can't apply lens-specific corrections due to its non-listing in that area.
    Why is it not listed and can I get it listed somehow?

    That's probably correct. The lenses from many cameras are not profiled by Adobe. It may be (I'm not sure about your camera) that the lens corrections are already applied by the camera, and so no additional corrections are needed in Lightroom.

  • RAW Support for Panasonic Lumix DMC-G5?

  • Iphoto and panasonic lumix dmc-fz28 raw (.rw2) files support

    It appears that iphoto or max osx does not currently support the panasonic lumix dmc-fz28's raw format (.rw2). Is this true? If so, does anyone know when support will be available? If it is supported today, how do you make it work?

    Since even the most recent updates to iPhoto do not contain DMC-FZ28 importers for RAW, I use the free and EXCELLENT +RAW Photo Processor+ ( http://www.raw-photo-processor.com ).
    For a donation (I gave $10) it will add the feature to open the converted image into the program of your choice. Of course I use iPhoto, which it automatically launches and then imports the image to it's database. Since it also has both batch capability and the ability to pick the image next to the last RAW image in the directory of your previous photo, it's great for importing large numbers of RAW images into iPhoto.
    And the control it gives over your import is incredible, certainly on par with Adobe RAW.
    I actually found the settings I like best and saved them as a profile for my camera (it works automatically for all Lumix cameras, but you can tweak them quite finely).
    Another nice thing about this little app is it is both multicore and multiprocessor savvy. Since it allows you to pick apps to open the imported images in, there's no limit to the the programs you can chose to add to your drop-down list.
    It solved the problem for me!

  • IPhoto does not import HD video/MTS files for Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5.

    Hello, everyone. I'm using iPhoto '11 on an iMac i7. I recently bought the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5, which records HD video (AVCHD Lite). When I insert the memory card into my iMac, it recognizes and imports all photos. However, the videos are left on the memory card, and I cannot even view them in iPhoto. When looking directly in the memory card, I can see the videos (they are MTS files), but nothing will play them. Is there other software I must install to be able to view/edit these video files. I'd like to see them in iPhoto, and then edit them in iMovie like I was able to with my standard definition camera. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I have the same camera as you. You can import the files, but you have to convert them manually first, witch takes a couple of secounds.
    1. Download and install the automator script from this blog and put it in your dock http://blog.sharkus.com/2010/04/avchd-lite-iphoto-importing.html
    2. locate the folder /Private/AVCHD/BDMV/STREAM on your memory card
    3. Drag your desired videofile (e.g. 000001.mts) on the automator script you put in your dock in step 1.
    4. whait (a couple of secounds, depending file size)
    5. Drag your new videofile (e.g. 000001.mts.m4v) to iphoto
    6. Finished
    Do not try to convert more than two files a once, then the script doesn't work properly.
    I hope apple will include support for mts-files very very soon!!

  • Will the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 work with my Intel Core 2 MBP?

    Will the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 work with my Intel Core 2 MacBook Pro and/or will I have to upgrade OSX & iLife (£122GBP).  Have seen that AVCHDLite is not directly compatible with Mac, but the articles are mostly 2 yrs old the panasonic website proudly displays the iPhoto and iMovie compatible icons http://panasonic.net/avc/lumix/compact/zs7_tz10/.  Have chosen this as a quality compact camera with wide angle lens, powerful optical zoom & a marine housing.

    AVCHD is not compatible with iPhoto but is with iMovie - not sure about AVCHDLite

  • Camera Raw update for Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000

    Hi.
    I have Elements 11 and need to update it to open .raw files shot with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000. I can't find the link where I can download the camera raw update.
    Can you please help me?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    The FZ1000 requires camera raw 8.6 which is NOT compatible with PSE 11.
    You will need to upgrade to PSE 13 or use the DNG converter.

  • Panasonic lumix dmc-fz28?

    will panasonic lumix dmc-fz28 raw file (.rw2) processing be added to acr anytime soon?

    You might want to read through this thread:
    Richard Earney, "LR2 Does Not Support .rw2 RAW File" #1, 12 Aug 2008 9:41 pm
    Apparently Adobe and Panasonic are trying to work through some "issues".
    ACR updates generally come out quarterly so you can always hope.
    Also just to let you know, Adobe team members and frequent posters in this forum can get a little grumpy with people who ask about when their camera will be supported in ACR. From the customer side it is a little hard to understand the attitude but from their side I guess it is a little like the kids in the backseat asking "are we there yet" for the 50th time. Just to prepare you a bit.

    We don't know Apple's plans - this is a User to User Forum. Send feedback to Apple that you want your camera to be supported.
    The latest raw support has been released just two days ago, so it probably will be at least a month or longert till the next release. The list of currently supported cameras is here:
