Canon 5D Mark II, 30fps converting to 25fps

Hi, could You please recommend me the best way to convert native 30p from Canon 5D MarkII,
(using Compressor 3.0.5. or MPEG Streamclip), to 25p? After conversion the movement is jarky not fluent enough.
Thank You
Libor

See my reply in this thread, where some standards conversion options are described in point 2:

  • 30fps Converted to 25fps. New Duration 20% Longer But Audio Sounds OK???

    Could be a Compressor or FCP question!
    I have some 1280x720p M-JPEG footage recorded at 30fps from a still camera and unfortunately I live in PAL country.
    So I made 2 ProRes presets in Compressor to "alter" the footage to 25fps. The Frame Control settings are shown below.
    Note the "Rate Conversion" details at the bottom of each preset.
    The first one results in a 20% increase in the duration whilst the second one plays back in the original video's time.
    The second one takes more than 10 times longer than the original video to convert, whilst the first one takes around 65% of the original video's time to convert.
    Now here is the odd thing!
    The 20% extended video made quickly with the first preset SOUNDS OK !
    I was expecting the dialogue to sound dreadfully slow with a noticeable lowering of the voice pitch.
    In fact, only when I compare it to the original very carefully, do I detect the slightest hint of it being slower.
    Any person listening normally would be unaware it had been slowed down.
    As for the pitch . . . . . . that is absolutely perfect . . . . . . exactly the same as the original.
    Can anyone explain these peculiar results or am I simply hallucinating?
    Incidentally, I can detect a slight slowing of the action, but as it doesn't have a serious effect for the type of video I shoot, I think I will stick with the quick conversion for most subjects.

  • I keep reading that i need converter software to import Canon DSLR (Mark II or D6) H.264 MOV file to iMovie? True? I'm confused.

    I keep reading that i need converter software to import Canon DSLR (Mark II or D6) H.264 MOV file to iMovie? True? I'm confused.

    iMovie 9.0.9 is the latest version you can run unless you upgrade to the Mavericks operating system (OS 10.9).
    Your profile (at the bottom of your post) mentions OS 10.4.11 (Tiger) which is why I mentioned that.
    The list of supported cameras is not comprehensive  but articles such as:
    https://getsatisfaction.com/apple/topics/make_canon_eos_6d_h_264_1080p_footage_e ditable_in_fcp_imovie
    do indicate that conversion is needed before import, at least for iMovie 9.  Although it's a recent article it doesn't specifically mention  iMovie 10.
    iMovie 10 has a very much changed interface and a different folder structure so upgrading is not trivial so I would not advise rushing into upgrading.
    Maybe someone with knowledge of this camera can help.

  • Help needed: Canon 5D Mark II video to Apple TV conversion

    I'm new to Apple TV and would appreciate any advice.
    I have been taking Full HD video 1920 x 1080 using my Canon 5D Mark II. Would like to play these files through Apple TV. What do I need to do? Do I need any conversion tool? If so, any recommendation?
    Thanks in advance!

    Just picked up a 5D II myself, having waited for what seemed like an eternity for a 5D replacement.
    You have 2 options for video on the 5D II
    SD - 4:3 at 640x480
    HD - 16:9 at 1080p 30fps
    Both are encoded as h264, but even the SD seems to have far too high a bitrate for AppleTV in my limited tests so far.
    Neither format will play without conversion - the 1080p 30fps is beyond AppleTV spec so you will have to convert it to 720p at 24/25fps or less (max it handles in theory) but that changes the frame rate which is not ideal so you may be better going for 960x540 at 30 fps. Both have bitrates which are too high - you need a max of 5Mbps for AppleTV. Both record audio as mono WAVs (unless you connect an external mic) so you need to convert the audio track to AAC at 160kbps or less, don't change the sample rate.
    I've not had much time to play but have done a couple of conversions in QT Pro and others direct in iTunes - too early to comment on quality of conversions yet - as I'm sure you've found doing manual focus can be quite hard while looking at live view and will take some practice.

  • How do I convert a 25fps shot film into a 1920x1080px@50fps quicktime/photojpeg or h.264

    Hello,
    I shot a film with a canon 5d mark II (25fps) and cut it on Final Cut Pro. Now I've been told, they need 920x1080px@50fps as quicktime/photojpeg or h.264 with high Bitrate. How do I convert my video into that using either Final Cut or Compressor or both?
    Thanks

    In the Compressor Inspector, in the Video tab, under Video Properties, you can change the size. There is a Change QuickTime Settings button where you can change frame rate.

  • (Windows) Premiere cs4 with Canon 5D Mark II

    I'm seriously considering buying Adobe's Production Premium, but I am extremely concerned about Premiere's support for the files outputted by my Canon 5D Mark II, h264 .mov 1920x1080p 30fps.
    I've done a lot of research and it seems as if a lot of folks with a lot more experience, better hardware components and 3rd party software packages haven't been able to find a workflow that is reasonable in terms of effort and time required just to get a project going.
    Can anyone give me a reason why I shouldn't seriously consider moving to an Apple solution with FCP Studio over production premium cs4 with premiere and after effects?
    Thanks for your honest opinions!

    If you want to stay on PC, would be the main reason.
    I dont know how well FCP handles it; but typically fcp converts everything to an intermediate format (pro res)
    I am definitely cringing at the thought of ditching all of my PC components (well, I suppose I can re-use the hard-drives at least in the Mac Pro if that's what I get). I do like a lot about windows, and being able to upgrade my stuff to my own liking rather than being stuck in a closed ecosystem. I also game a lot so that's a consideration too.
    The way FCP converts the video to Pro Res sounds pretty smart and definitely take the guesswork out.

    Best one I can think of is that it would be an Apple solution.
    The better solution would be to get a real video camera for video production.  While the world of DSMC is rapidly approaching, we're not quite there yet.
    Thanks for your reply, Jim!
    I agree making the switch to Apple and Final Cut Studio might not be the best solution.
    I cannot really speak to getting a "real" video camera just because Premiere cs4 can't seem to play nicely with the camera I currently have.
    I am able to drag and drop 5D Mark II .mov files straight into imovie 6 HD, have it import (40 gb of movies in 4-5 hrs) and then edit away with no delays on a Macbook (non-pro) with no problems whatsoever. Playback, cutting, transitions, effects are silky smooth. Imovie 6 HD came with my Macbook when I bought it in December 2006. Premiere Pro came out last year didn't it? What gives?
    There are people making some "real" good stuff out there with this camera and I love its ability to use all of my Canon lenses (four), high capacity memory cards (ranging from 8gb to 32gb) and camera batteries that I already have. Buying a new, but "real", camera would mean learning a whole new camera system not to mention having to buy all of the accessories, lenses, batteries, memory cards (a Panasonic P2 16gb alone is $800 USD) and carrying all that extra stuff around. If I'm on vacation for instance every morning I would have to make the decision of carting around either the still camera or the video camera instead of just bringing something that could do it both, and potentially miss either a once in a lifetime still or video.
    I'm a photographer by trade but I'm getting into video production because I feel like I will need video editing/production skills in the future or I'll be left in the dust. That isn't the only reason of course - I've always wanted to shoot video but couldn't afford or justify a quality camera until now.
    Jim why do you prefer Premiere to Final Cut Pro on the Mac?
    Thanks again for replying.

  • Exporting Canon 5D Mark ii footage..

    I'm fairly new to final cut, im running a Mac Pro, 2 X 3 Ghz processor, 10GB memory, 10.6.2 snow leopard... and i still find myself having to render at every edit in the timeline, and now im having trouble figuring out how to export correctly to get the highest possible quality on youtube and/or vimeo
    here's what i have done and researched so far:
    i took my original canon 5d footage into MPEG streamclip and converted the files into Apple ProRes 422 (LT) at 30fp, i then created a custom setup in final cut 7 with the following presets:
    SEQUENCE PRESET: Canon 5D Mark ii footage (duplicated an Apple ProRes 422 (LT) 1920X1080 30p 44.1ghz audio)
    CAPTURE PRESET: DVCPRO HD 1080p30 48kHz (i won't be capturing in fcp since i've been using MPEG streamclip
    DEVICE CONTROL PRESET: FIREWIRE NTSC
    VIDEO PLAYBACK: (sometimes i have this set at Digital Cinema Desktop Preview - Full Screen so that i can take advantage of my other monitor, but it tends to drop frames faster in playback, so i usually have it set to "none")
    AUDIO PLAYBACK: Default
    now my question is, how do i correctly export this? i tried a couple different ways, some had skipped frames... others the audio was off... another setting made the colors way too contrasty after exporting...
    also how can i solve this "rendering" issue... did i make a mistake in the beginning in setting up the timeline (btw , the sequence matches the same settings as the footage... ) i'm also playing back at "safe RT, medium quality, half frame rate..." not sure if that matters..
    so yeah, my two main questions are, correct export for this file, and any help with render issues?
    thank you..

    oops.sorry...
    here is a link to what i uploaded using Quicktime X directly to youtube..
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3q19YDSdWE
    it doesn't look as good as i think it could...and it has a HQ option instead of HD? i don't have quicktime pro so i couldn't export with exact settings, just directly to youtube... how can i export w/ final cut .. when i export using quicktime conversion and using Apple Pro Res, it ends up being a 1.34gb file and its only 1 minute... would i then need to compress it?
    and yes i need to get rid of all the layers i have in the timeline.. maybe that might help but it was giving me the rendering "RED" color even in the beginning when i had 1 layer..
    i changed audio to 44.1 because i read it somewhere online i believe it was under phillip bloom.. suggesting to change from 48 to 44.1 for all canon 5d footage.. ? im not sure why though..

  • Converting 24 - 25fps

    I shot a music video on a Canon 5D mark II at 23.98 edited and completed in final cut pro until I was left with a Pro res 422 master.
    I've now been asked for a 25fps version.
    I've tried doing a conversion in Compressor but I got strange ghosting in the frame rate I also did one in cinema tools but the whole thing was speeded up by about 20 secs.
    Can someone give me a workflow breakdown on how to do this without it shrinking the running time, knocking it out of sync or ghosting the image.
    Thanks.

    If you want good conversion, you need to take it to a post facility with a Terranex or other high end converter. This is an odd frame rate to convert...STANDARDS conversion. I'm having to do the same thing...but 29.97 to 25fps.

  • Images from Canon 7D mark 2 will not open in Photoshop CS6

    Images from Canon 7D mark 2 will not open in Photoshop CS6

    Hi Ferdinand12345,
    Cannon 7D mark II has been included in the ACR 8.7. I would advise you to wait for the 8.7 camera raw to release.
    In the meanwhile you can go to labs.adobe.com and download the 8.7 DNG converter and convert the files to DNG and then try to import.
    Thanks

  • Camera Raw Support: how to open Canon 7D Mark II Raw files in CS5.5?

    I bought CS5.5 only a year ago and a Canon 7D Mark II a couple of months ago.  CS5.5 won't read raw files and I can't find a camera raw update that works with CS5.  Did Adobe quit supporting CS5.5 only a year after they sold it to me or is there a way to update camera raw so it will work with my camera?

    CS5.x is obsolete software and is no longer supported by Adobe ever since CS6 was released.  The last version of the Camera Raw plug-in to run with CS5.x was ACR 6.7.1. There will be no further updates for CS5.x.
    You need to look for, download, install, launch and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.8 on each batch of raw files that cannot be opened in ACR 6.7.1.

  • Canon 7D Mark II files won't open in bridge or photoshop

    I am using photoshop CS5 and purchased a canon 7D Mark II and my files won't open. I updated to the photoshop 8.7.1 and my files still won't open. How do I fix this?

    Assuming you mean ACR (Adobe Camera Raw plug-in) 8.7.1, not "Photoshop" what you write makes no sense.
    ACR 8.7.1 needs at least CS6 to run.  You will never be able to open your raw files from that camera directly in CS5.  There will be no further updates for the obsolete, unsupported CS5 applications.
    You have to go the free, stand alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1.  Locate it, download it, install it and then launch and run it on ever folder of raw files to convert them to raw DNGs you can then open in your CS5 setup.

  • Adobe Camera Raw in CS3 is having problems with the RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark II

    Adobe Bridge will import the CS2 raw files from the camera card in m Canon 5D Mark II but it will not create thumbnails nor will it convert them to DNG. I want to update the raw reading software but the update page indicates that it only updates into CS4. Will I have to upgrade to CS4 before I can import from my new camera?
    ML

    The dng converter does indeed work but it adds an extra step to the workflow. Raw files from my Canon 40D are exported and converted to dng in Bridge in one step. Now I must add the extra step of using dng converter. Can I upgrade Adobe Bridge's raw capacity so that I can import from my new camera in the same efficient way? I would prefer to do this without buying CS4.
    thank you -- ML

  • Canon 5d Mark ii and Camera Raw in CS3.

    Bought a new camera, Canon 5d Mark ii. Cannot open the RAW files. Can open them from my older Canon camera. Not sure which Camera Raw comes with CS3. Not sure if I have to upgrade. If I do need to upgrade to at least CS4 that may be doable. Otherwise OR until I do, am I better off just using the Canon software for now? Advice please!!!

    That camera was supported for the first time in ACR 5.2, which ran with Photoshop CS4.
    If you are not planning on upgrading your Photoshop to CS4 or CS5 right away, you need to download the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter version 5.7 to convert your raw Canon files to DNG raw files first.  Then you will be able to open those DNGs in Camera Raw in CS3.
    You should update your ACR in CS3 to version 4.6 ASAP, though.  ACR 4.0 is woefully obsolete and nobody should be running that old version.
    Be aware, however, that you will be leaving a lot of image quality behind by staying with that old version of ACR in CS3.  Camera Raw 5.7 (the current and last version for CS4) is light years ahead of ACR 4.x.   ACR 6.1 (currently a Release Candidate) which requires CS5 is even a bit better than ACR 5.7.
    ACR 4.x is really old technology.  If you can afford that camera, you most certainly can afford to upgrade to CS5.

  • Upgraded Adobe LR 4.1, CS6 Beta & got the Canon 5D Mark III, WHEN is next dot release Camera Raw?

    I Purchased the Upgraded Adobe LR 4.1, CS6 Beta & got the Canon 5D Mark III, Mac Pro server update to Lion, WHEN is next dot release Camera Raw? My workflow has trippled in time because of this issue. I'm so frustrated with having to convert images in a slowed up piece of crap canon software package and then wait another decade for the newest LR to load the images I could crap fire! Come on Adobe, where's the release? After a few grand you'd think we'd get a better response time. As for Canon, they are not consistant with community software sharing and can kiss my *!! because to leave Adobe hanging sux!
    There should be new laws that penalize jerks that screw with workflow!
    Time is money, let's go Adobe!

    "so there are no Adobe staff here to see your rant."
    Oh, they're here    and they see it...
    BTW this might help?
