Canon XF 305 Media

It appears that support has been cut off from the Canon XF series cameras. In FCP 7 its no problem to Log and Transfer footage from the CF Cards they use in NATIVE format, so I dont have to worry about transcoding..just have to copy my files over. Now, FCP X wont even recognize the CF card as anything valid.
Anyone have any thoughts on this? Am I missing something. And, no, hooking up the camera directly and transferring from there isnt any better.

Thanks,
I appreciate the answer, but I actually work in live events where were pumping out DVDs for sale of the event within 90 min of it occurring..and transcoding is not an option for the footage..one of the main reasons we got the camera was the superfast workflow with FCP (7) and Native support from apple/canon so we just had to import the files form the card, and edit them natively, add our chapter markers, export/compress, and send to DVD SP (which reads our markers from editing for the absolute necessity of a CHAPTER MENU).
Apple really jumped the gun on this release..it should have been a public beta for user feedback at best..

  • Canon XF 305 media into FCP problem

    Hello
    I used two XF 305s on a shoot yesterday and then ingested the files with Log and Transfer into FCP. Worked fine with the 3 cards from one camera but Log and Transfer didn't see any of the 3 cards recorded on the second camera. I tried to add them manually but got an error message saying the folder contained unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. The cards are viewable in Canon XF Utility and seemed to have the same properties as the 3 cards that worked.  I tried making a backup and transferring that in FCP but same error message. The only way i can get them into FCP is to export to MXF and bring them in with XDCam transfer which doesn't seem to support anything bigger than 2 gb and the audio is out of sync. Frustrating day!!! I'd be SO grateful for any answers or guidance!
    Thanks
    Deborah

    Hi Deborah,
                      I don't mean shutter speed, I mean framerate, two different things. If you shot 50 frames per second (50p) as opposed to 25 frames per second which is 50i, Log and transfer won't recognise the clips.

    How do I get what I shot onto the timeline in PE9?
    I no longer have the camera.
    Thanks.

    I think that it depends on the day of the week, or the phases of the Moon?
    Maybe someday, Jive and Adobe will be able to fix Forum Search. In the "good old days," it was OK, to OK+, and then came Jive. About the time that the MOD's finally got things working with Search This Forum query boxes, Search broke and big time.

  • Best frame rate , resolution and shutter speed Canon XF 305 for chromakeying

    Hi,
    I have to shoot some footage with the Canon XF305 (green screen Chromakeying) And the only progressive frame rates I can choose are ( 25P 1920x1080) or (50Pand 25P 1280x720).
    What shutter speed do I have to use?
    What will be the best quality choice for keying?! The output will be Vimeo at the end. I have a Xenon 6core 3.2, Memory 24 GIG, GTX580.
    Of course I know the best resolution, but I mean the best choices for keying.
    It's done in PAL.
    Thanks David

    A high suhutter speed is improtant for crisp edges, especially if your codec is not frame-based, because your subjects will have little or no motion blur. 125th seocnd at least. faster if you can get it. Requires lots of light. You must not trade off depth of field because focus is critical to good keys, too, and you must not add gain because noise will degrade your key.

  • FCP7 Log and Transfer, Unsupported Media . . .

    Last night I used two different SDHC cards in my Canon Vixia HFS100.  FCP7 will import clips via Log and Transfer from one, but not the other.  It just ignores everything on it (but I have 1.4 GB of recordings on it). 
    When I copy the card to a hard drive and point Log and Transfer to that folder, I get the message "CANON contains  unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure"
    Before using this card, I did a full initization of the card.  I compared the directory structures of the two.  They appear identical.  I haven't messed with either in the Finder.
    How do I tell what is wrong?  How do I fix it?  Or should I just try converting with something like Voltaic?  I'm an FCP beginner.  So, I would rather not stray too far from its work flow.
    Thanks!

    On the card that you are having trouble with:
    1) make sure there are no still images
    2) make sure there is no non-hd video (log and transfer works with AVCHD HD video clips, not MPEG SD clips)
    3) if possible, all the hd video clips should be of one quality/size/format setting
    4) in the log and transfer window, click on the gear shaped icon in the top center of the screen to set the Log and Transfer Preferences:
    Set the Import Preferences for AVCHD to Plain Stereo:
    Click OK, then restart FCP, reconnect the camera and try again.

  • Working With Canon XF300 Files

    Hi everyone,
    I rented a Canon XF300 for a live event shoot yesterday, and now I am trying to get the footage into an editable form. The two hour event was broken up into numerous .mxf files (The container file that the Canon XF300). My main concern is how to merge those separate files into one large 1.5 hour file, to make the editing process smoother. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am using the CS suite for this job, but I also have FCP7 on my system, in case the workflow involves that software...
    Thanks in advance!
    Joel G.

    I'm faced with a similar problem as the OP. I can't find a way to join 2 or 3 clips together so a sequence can be edited as one. I'm on PP 5.0.3.
    Apparently (and I can't confirm this) for Panasonic P2 files, Premiere works out which clips are supposed to be contiguous (using the metadata) and joins or merges them in some way.
    This does not appear to be the case for Canon XF300/305 MXF clips.
    Has anyone come across a workflow for joining or merging MXF clips for use in PP 5/5.5?

  • Red Frames and .mxf read failures PP CC 2014 8.1 update. Oct 6.  Anyone else see the new update fail? Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    I cut 9 hours worth of broadcast video in PP CC 2014 8.0. (The yellow interface.) I had no issues. It was all great. For some reason, before I exported the finished cuts for broadcast, I updated the Adobe CC 2014 suite to v1.8.0.447 (PP has the blue interface). I feel stupid. I broke my own rule of not updating software until the projects you work on are done. Now I can't open this project without Red Frames in my timeline and in my exports. I have been reading about this Red Frame that seemed to first appear in PP CC 7. (Maybe even as early as 2006) I never had the problem then, I run Premiere Pro everyday.
    My Issue seems to be a bit different than most of the issues that have read. I have cleared the cache, & I have ditched the preview files. This did not fix it as stated it would in previous forum posts.  I have moved the footage location from a server to a local thunderbolt SSDrive and renamed the folders and re-linked the video footage. Still Red Frames.
    What is odd, is when I boot up the project and after all media has loaded, it looks like it is going to work for a few minutes. I get happy and scrub the timeline checking for the red frames, hoping the problem solved when I cleaned the cache etc.. Everything seems to be fine, audio synch, picture, lower thirds and graphics all appear fine. Then the red frames appear over time, and by 5 minutes after scrubbing, I see mostly red frames. Audio is still there though. Even weirder, is that when I resize the height of the video track, the red frame comes and goes with no real pattern.  The clip preview picture flickers with the red frame. The red frames export through through Premiere and through a Media Encoder cue which say .MXF read error so I'm hooped. ( it does render the video, but has the red frames )
    I run a Mac Pro;

    I am noticing something interesting with my source footage folders. I am getting some .mxfindex files with really long names, like temp files almost, that don't go away. I still get Red Frames after deleting them, clearing cache, changing drive locations and file and folder names and relinking. When I delete these long files the software wont boot the project very well and crashes a few times before it opens, still with red frames. This problem with this project occurs on every computer (4)  in the studio, which are the same as mine, we all updated at the same time. 
    Files look like this:
    What happened in that update? Is there a fix for this? Any suggestions? If not, Is it possible for me to roll back my whole CC 2014 version to 8.0?  I am terrified to open any other of our projects... I am under time pressure and am starting to do the re-edit of this in CS6 which seems to run flawlessly, but because of Adobe's RIDICULOUS FAIL in backward compatibility, I can not open this project in anything but PP CC 2014. 120 hrs of lost editing will certainly have me scratching my head about continued use. Any suggestion, links or information would be appreciated.
    Thanks .

    You should still have a Premiere Pro CC 2014.0.1 (8.0.1) project file available to you by default. Can't you go back to that version and complete your project? That's what I'm recommending those having this problem do.

    As long as you ingest the footage via the Media Browser and do not update the project file, you shouldn't have issues like this. I have heard complaints in new projects with Premiere Pro CC 2014.1 (8.1), so I have reopened a previously closed bug.

    Sometimes, deleting sidecar files can help the situation but not always. It looks like you are having trouble when deleting them.

    A bug that was fixed for red frames in 8.1 was somehow broken by the time we shipped this version. We have reopened the bug, but currently, there is no fix.

    Yes, see my blog post here: Install a previous version of any Creative Cloud application
    Included in the post is a patch for Premiere Pro CC 2014.0.1 (8.0.1).

    You can always try exporting a FCPXML for backward compatibility, but for complex sequences (like multicamera), this isn't always an option. There aren't many NLEs providing backward compatibility, sorry. Feel free to request that, if you like, here: http://adobe.ly/feature_request

  • Video looks ok in source window but distorted in Program window.

    I am trying to work with video clips shot using a Canon XF 305 at 1280 X 720 at 60P FPS.  Using the Canon XF utility, I have injested the clips from the card to my hard drive where they are stored as MXF files. Using Premiere’s media browser, I imported them into bins from my hard drive.  I set up the sequence to match the clips settings . The video looks fine in the Source window but when I bring over onto the timeline- the same clip looks distorted with artifacts in the program window. I then used Adobe Prelude to convert the MXF files into ProRes 422 LT files with same resolution of 1280 X 720 at 59.94 frames FPS.  I used the media browser to bring those pro-res clips into Premier and set up another new sequence to match the clips setting.  I get the same problem- the video looks good in the source window but terrible in the program window when I bring them into the timeline.  They are completely distorted with artifacts.  This is the first time I have tried working with 1280 x 720 60p fps clips.  I have successfully worked with 1920 X1080P 30P clips from the same camera with no issues.  Any ideas on what I am doing wrong and how to correct my workflow will be appreciated.
    I am using a 2009 Intel Mac Pro with Snow leopard 10.6.8

    Is your 'Playback and Pause' resolution set to 'Full' for your program monitor?
    Also, why not just drag one of the clips to the 'New Item' button at the bottom of the project window to make a sequence with the settings of your clip?

  • My CF card reader no longer works with OSX 10.9

    I am a video editor, I shoot my content on a Canon XF-305 which creates MXF files on CF cards. Until I updated to OSX 10.9 everything was fine and I used to insert the CF cards into my Kingston FCR-HS3 USB card reader and then import/convert the footage accordingly. However since the OSX update I can no longer access my video footage on my Mac. The card reader constantly throws up a generic error message through finder that says 'disk not ejected properly' even though it is still plugged in. I've only managed to import a few seconds using pavtube MXF converter before it all goes wrong. I have used FCP X, Canon disk utility, and pavtube MXF converter - all are up to date with drivers and software and none of them work anymore!
    Just to let you know I've contacted Apple and all they said is to check all drivers and software are up to date - which I have done, although Canon has not released any OSX 10.9 plug ins or drivers yet - which might be a problem.
    Kingston does have a firmware update, but only for PC.
    My thought's were to go back to OSX 10.8 but apple told me I had to use Time Machine for this and the last time I backed up was ages ago and I will lose too much important data.
    Someone please help???

    Had the same problem with my Kingston FCR-HS3 Cardreader (FW 0123, bought Aug. 2012) when using it on my Macbook Pro Retina 2012 with MacOS Mavericks 10.9.1 on the USB 3.0 port. Trying it on my MacPro Early 2008 with MacOS Mavericks 10.9.1 on USB 2.0 port everything was okay.
    When trying to update the firmware of my cardreader to version 0131 (on a Windows 8 notebook) which is only available for Windows, I had an error several times and could not update. After changing to another USB-Port on this notebook everything went okay.
    Now my cardreader is working fine and I even notice a rise in transfer speed from 100 (before) to 120 MB/s when using fast CF-cards (600x or 1000x).

  • MXF files show up as Red on timeline and in export

    Like many others on here, I've become the latest victim of the "red screen of unending frustration." I've been working freelance for a company for a few months on this project, and just this week when I was set to submit the final versions, the red frames reared their ugly a** heads.
    They didn't show up until I exported through AME (yes, all my products are up to date - that was the first thing I checked) and some of them had issues, some didn't. I've noticed some things about the files that are giving me trouble. The files are all:
    - MXF files from the same camera - I didn't shoot the footage so I don't know what exact camera was used (the files are named AA016401.mxf -  a naming convention similar to that of the Canon XF 305 that I use at my full-time job)
    - Spanned to at least three mxf files
    - Blue screen footage (doubt that has anything to do with it)
    Every instance of the problem file has this issue - it's not just frames, it's the entire clip on the timeline that shows up as red.
    I've tried clearing caches in both AE and PP. I've tried moving the files to my local drive, renaming, refreshing, etc...nothing helps. I've tried using Prelude to convert them to .mp4s or .movs...that just froze my computer multiple times. I've tried restarting programs, the computer, ejecting and reconnecting the thunderbolt drive. I can't get anything to even make me feel like it's helping.
    Since I know someone will ask - I'm using a Mid-2011 iMac (I don't do lots of editing at home for obvious reasons!), running OSX 10.8.5 with 12 GB RAM. All footage, stills, project files, etc. are connected with a Thunderbolt external with plenty of space on it. I'm sure there is some vital piece of info I'm forgetting to include.
    PS - I usually hate it when people point out that this is their livelihood and they get pissed that their problem isn't fixed ASAP...well, now I hate myself, cause that's how I feel. C'mon Adobe. Fix this.

    Yeah - they froze my computer, which made me originally think that Adobe/Premiere/AE had done something to change the original file - crazy, I know.
    I took the drive with me to work and transcoded the problem files into MP4s and had no problem - which now makes me think that my computer at home needs an upgrade (*spoiler alert* it does). I don't have CC on my computer at work so I couldn't check to see if I was having the problems on a different computer or not. But I did notice that in the original MXFs in Prelude there were no red frames, unlike on my home computer where Prelude was showing me lots of them, presumably the parts that are on my PP and AE timelines.
    I'm going to hopefully be replacing the problem clips from the MXF files with encoded MP4s tonight, so I'll report back with anything that goes well or not.
    Fingers crossed.

  • Error Code 88 with Pixma Pro9500 even with art margins set correctly

    I'm getting error code 88 (from the Canon Pro9500 series print monitor window) when attempting to print on an A3Plus art paper (Hahnemuehle William Turner), even though I have the paper size set correctly (in the Photoshop Print Dialog, Print Settings) to "Art A3+ (Margin 35)". 
    (Furthermore – though most of the following options probably have nothing to do with the problem, and are probably the correct or allowable settings anyway – I'm using Canon Color Matching; Media Type: "Fine Art Museum Etching"; Paper Source: Front Tray; Print Quality: High; and am printing in color, not grayscale.  Color Options are all left set at zero.)
    I’m printing from Photoshop CS5 Extended, Version 12.0 x64, using an iMac with MacOSX10.6.8.  The Canon Printer Driver is “Pro9500 Driver – CUPS Version 10.51.2.0”, recently installed (or re-installed) just the other day when I was trying to deal with this problem (I didn’t check the CUPS version before reinstalling the driver, so I don’t know if this could be relevant).
    (I also attempted to print by setting, in Paper Handling, "Scale to fit paper size", with Destination Paper Size set also to the suggested Art A3+ (Margin 35), although I never had to do this in the past, and so I don't suppose it matters. Still, this did not help.)
    I had the same problem attempting to print on an A4 art paper, as one is supposed to do, using front loading and the paper size set to Art A4 (Margin 35), with Media Type set to "Fine Art Premium Matte" (it was a matte art paper).  No go; I got error 88.  I was able to print on the same sheet by setting "Matte Photo Paper" (while still using Front Loading), but this is not the media type one should use for such a paper.
    In the past few years I have printed 8-bit files, in both AdobeRGB and sRGB, on A4 and A3Plus art papers, in both color and grayscale, always using the art margin settings, without any such difficulties.  Typically I use Color Management by Printer, or “Canon Color Matching” (though I experimented with the use of dedicated paper profiles and Color Management by Photoshop).  Lately I’m trying to print 16-bit files, generally Photoshop PSD or TIFF, with a document profiles of sRGB, AdobeRGB, or ProPhotoRGB.  Of course I tried several times to print from an 8-bit file, and once using Color Management by Photoshop, but got error 88 just the same.

  • IMac, iPhoto not printing correctly

    I have an iMac and print to a Canon ip4200 wirelessly. I bought the printer from Apple with my iMac and have tried to print 4x6 photos to the printer but it doesn't print correctly. I went through the print setup in some detail choosing the canon printer, the media (Canon 4x6 photo paper), yet the preview window comes up with red text that it cannot be setup to print like this. I have double-checked the canon manual and the paper is in the tray correctly. What am I doing wrong?
    Thank you
    Clyde

    It's probably a setting in iPhoto that is causing it. I don't know about the later versions of iPhoto as I am still using version 4.03 but if I remember correctly one thing you have to do is to crop the photo to 4 x 6 and then make sure the settings in both iPhoto and your printer match.
    You may have more success asking this question in the iPhoto forum as that is where the real gurus for that application hang out!
