Does fcpx support panasonic lumixG5?

The title says it. I see from the list over supported cameras that g3 is listen as supported, but I wonder if annonse kones if the lumix g5 is supported. Looks like a good camera for my use, but it's a dealbreaker for me that I can import the film I capture straight into fcpx without any hassle.

Sure looks like it will be more than fine. Lots of camera/camcorders aren't listed, though they work fine.

Does FCPX support .exr files?

Does FCPX support .exr files?

Industrial Light pioneers this codec; HDR (high dynamic range) file. I'm not sure FCPX accepts it natively, so you may need to convert it to Apple ProRes first. What camera are you using that records exr? Also see link below:

Does FCPX support 60p?

Does FCPX support 60p?

Hi Tom,
I'm using a Sony HDR-CX130 and shooting in 60p for best quality (and hopefully best for FCP editing).
I downloaded trial version of ClipWrap to enable usage of the MTS files. Your forum discussion headed me in the direction of ClipWarp by the way. My question is which Output Format to use. By the way (and I realize how tedious and time consuming it might be to repeat or paste a link to the info) it would be so very helpful to us new to many of these things to include details of how to use the recommended item. I am guessing that you have ascertained that the "Use ClipWrap" alone can be a wee bit frustrating. Ok, as to the question, I find these available options for output format along with the file size for 1 minute that the trial version will process:
     Rewrap (don't alter video samples)         60.5 MB
     Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC)           427.2 MB
     Apple ProRes 422                               612.9 MB
     Apple ProRes 422 HQ                         915.9 MB
     DVCProHD                                            489 MB
     DV                                                     128.9 MB
     HDV                                                   113.3 MB
All generated an .mov file.
I've eliminated the last 3 as they seem to distort the aspect ratio (and resultant image squishing the side making the image taller and thinner than actual.
I thought I read previous postings from you that indicated one only need to Rewrap. That made the first choice appear to be the appropriate one. When viewing the .mov file with Quicktime, the audio was as expected but the video image lagged, dragged, stuttered, froze while the audio continued as expected. Yes, it is an antique by today's standards - I am using an old G5 and waiting for Apple to come out with a Mac Pro that has a thunderbolt connection but I thought that info might help the diagnosis. In addition, this file entered into FCP brings the machine to its knees as well producing the spinning beachball of death.
The choices 2-4 above generated a Quicktime file that worked like a charm. I have not attempted to import into FCP as I am thinking I could get the answer to my question more accurately from here rather than a lengthy trial and error session that might also include something I am overlooking - not a pretty site several months down the road.
Ok, which Output Format should I use when I want the following in order of importance?:
     No loss in quality (that is the reason for HD in the first place)
     Ease of use with FCP
     Fastest when considering editing, final encoding, burning, etc. in FCP and DVD Studio Pro
     Speed with which ClipWrap does its thing.
     Some consideration of disk space but this is very low in the list. Disk space is cheap and I don't mind adding drives. I am planning a large raid storage purchase in the near future that will communicate using thunderbolt.
Thanks for all your help - you are the best.

Does FCPX support import/editing/export of 1080/60p?

I have a Panasonic HDC-HS900 that shoots 1080/60p. I know it's not part of the AVCHD standard, but I am hoping that FCPX will support this video.

I have the Panasonic TM700 and it will not import these files. Your best bet is converting them to Apple Proress LQ with Clipwrap

Does iMovie support Panasonic DVR-D300 mini RAM disc camcorder?

The camcorder manual indicates that Mac OS X 10.4 is the last one supported by iMovie. Is there an up-date available for v.10.5.2 and up?

Forest brings up a good point. What type of media (DVDs) are you using? The D300 supports DVD-R, but I use DVD-RAM. It might appear different to your Mac depending on which format you use. If you've recorded onto DVD-R in Video mode, then you will need to finalize the disc as Forest says. From that point it will be viewable in a regular DVD player as well as on your Mac. There is free software available called mactheripper which will rip videos from DVDs for you (whether from your camcorder or regular DVDs), and from that point it's the same procedure with ffmpegX to convert them to DV for use in iMovie.
I know this is a lot of hassle, but once you get your workflow down it'll be easy for you.
Since we do seem to be the only ones using the Panasonic DVD camcorder, and you want to use iMovie and I have been successfully, I'll let you know how my workflow goes. First, I use DVD-RAM discs in the camcorder in VR mode. This allows you to erase and reuse the discs once the footage is safely on your Mac. When a disc gets full, I connect the camcorder to my Mac with the USB cable and turn it on. The camcorder's power cable must be plugged in (not running on the battery). Then I open the Pixe VRF Browser software and select the DVD-RAM device from the drop-down menu. It ejects the disc and asks you to reload it. Weird, I know, but you'll get used to it. Then it scans the disc and shows thumbnails of all the clips. I highlight all the clips and use the copy function to get them to my Mac. I store all the clips in their original MPG format and only convert to DV the clips I want to use in iMovie.
Let me know if you have more questions. Remember, once you get it to work once it'll be easy for you.

Does FCPX support AVCHD-lite? confusing info ...

AVCHD with 720p isn't explicitly listed, although on the Supported Cams List, I read devices using this format.
anyone any insight?

This is not correct. iMovie 11 'supports' AVCHD Lite only in the sense that it will convert AVCHD Lite streams to (much bulkier) Apple's AIC streams. There is no native support for AVCHD Lite in iMovie 11. iMovie 11 does support a number of other H.264 codecs natively, but this does not automatically mean support for AVCHD Lite.

Does FCPX support 1080p?

I have a Canon HF G10 that is set to shoot in recording mode MXP with a fram rate of 60i. When i import the video into FCPX i see 1920 x 1080 | 29.97 fps 1080i HD under the info tab for each clip. How do i get it to 1080p?

60i is easier, with correct settings 24p is better, and I slightly disagree with sensei Wolsky …

was a short, illustrated essay I once wrote in this neverending debate ....
due to its inherent blurriness, interlaced feels, esp. on fast (horizontal) subjects, better.
for the price of a resolution loss.
you can accomplish a 'better' smoothness when following basic rules of cinematography, using a slow shutter-speed - which results in 'natural' motion-blurr.- for most situations, that means with the aid of ND-filters.-
but …
if you like to use the material for adding effects, esp. tools like Optical Flow, plugins as Twixtor, short shutter speed is needed, therefor 'better'.-
nicolefromgambrills wrote:

avoid that.
or, stabilize it, manually, attaching weights to cam, fly-pods, in-cam-features.-
esp. any vertical movements create odd effects by using interlace.
the (in)famous 'movie look' every video-cam hobbyist is panting for is based NOT upon frame-rate, but upon achievable slow shutter-speeds. and 24fps would allow down to 1/48th - which gives wonderful blurry pics.-
on the other hand, in context with Jackson's Hobbit in HFR, it was noticed that a younger audience prefer the blurry-free, but smooth 'electronic' look.- different viewing habits.
you're using a beast of a cam - I assume, the correlations of iso / f-stop / sec is familiar to you

Does Lightroom 3 support Panasonic DMC FZ200 RAW files?

Does Lightroom 3 support Panasonic DMC FZ200 RAW files? I think the update for LR 4.2 does. But I still have LR 3 and do not wish to upgrade right now.

Of course not. The camera was announced 8 months after the last version of LR 3 came out.
You could use the free DNG converter.

Does FCP support the new Panasonic AVC Intra codec?

Does FCP support the new Panasonic AVC Intra codec?
NOT AVCHD but AVC Intra?
Will it require more rendering or converting before I can use it?
I am looking at buying the HPX-2000 with the new AVC Intra board, recording to P2. AVC Intra is H.264 codec.

I don't think this is supported yet.. but the camera's ability to shoot DVCPROHD certainly is.

Does FC Express 4 support Panasonic P2 ingest?

Hi there, my question is, does FC Express 4 support Panasonic P2 ingest? Thanks for more information. Chris

No, it does not.

Aperture does not support the more expensive Lumix cameras from Panasonic!

Aperture does not support RAW in the GF!, G1 or GH! cameras - cameras hailed as breakthroughs. Does anyone know why or when it may do so?

I believe that you posted in the AirPort forum by mistake. It appears that you intended to post this in the Aperture forum.

Does this support Iphone(3G) from Sprint?

I have a iphone from sprint and I have been watching video on youtube all the time. But yesterday I could not watch video anymore because youtube does not support my cell phone device anymore?
So, my question is does this flash player support my iphone from sprint?
what shall I do to watch video on youtube just like before?

FCPX doesn't import AVCHD files from my Panasonic GH-2, even though importing works perfectly into iMovie. So just because camera X imports natively into iMovie, it isn't certain it will import natively into FCPX.
iMovie archives will always import because the AVCHD has already been converted to ProRes on import.
In FCPX the AVCHD files from say a GH-2 can be edited natively if you don't want to re-render into ProRes, but to date I can't import them to test this.

How does FCPX handle audio?

Still working on getting audio exported to an AAF, and having problem doing this. So I need help understanding how FCPX is handling my audio.
When it's on the timeline, is it being conformed to the frame rate of the video?
When audio is exported, does FCPX force it to conform to the video frame rate in the project settings, audio properties, or both? Or does it allow the audio to export at whatever rate the original media is at?
I export an XML from FCPX, then open that with X2Pro and it makes an AAF file, but a report tells me that "Conform rates are not supported. The Conform rate at 01:04:49.23 has been ignored." So when I go to that timecode, all I see is video at 24p and a detached audio piece at 23.98. Why are these different? How would I fix?

FINALLY! Thank you God, this issue is resolved. Here's what I learned and had to do in case anyone else may be wrestling with this issue.
Apparently, FCPX handles audio like this:
• Adjusts varying frame rates to match the project property, e.g. if you drop footage that is 24, 30, and 60 all on a 24p timeline, FCPX makes them fit into 24p, it does not tell you or show you this, it just does it automatically
• It may handle detached audio a little differently. For instance, I had a 24p timeline, and there were 39 detached audio clips that were 23.98 because they were not attached to any video, so I had to reimport and sync, see the workaround below.
The X2Pro, program to convert FCPXML to AAF, spits out a report showing where all the conform errors were, 39 total, but still required calculating where exactly it was because it didn't identify precisely by frames. Once the offending detached audio clip was located, I then Expanded the Audio Components to see both the original and synchronized audio. Next I had to go find the external audio that had been synced, then do a replace edit on the old synchronized clip. This made the audio's video frame rate 24 and took away the conform errors! Then I had to sync up the new detached audio clip manually with the video clips above it.
Also, to get out to an AAF with X2Pro, it does not support retiming, so I had to strip out 22 instances of retiming.
Whew, glad that's all over! Hopefully this AAF will be pristine for my audio post supervisor to bring into ProTools!
Thank you all for your help and input along the way!
