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..

  • Canon 5D Mark II footage in FCP

    Does anybody edit Canon 5D Mark II footage with FCP? My playback stops at every blade cut or in the end of the clip for a second before resumes the next clip ... pretty annoying. All the other HD camera footage plays just fine.
    Help!
    Jarmo

    I can only covet your camera, but I happen to have a FCP tutorial for the Mark II. It says do this:
    1. Make sure you have latest MacOS (10.5.6 or highter), Quicktime (7.6 or higher), and FCP (6.0.5 or higher). And of course an Intel-based Mac (2.8 Ghz recommended). You may still get some stutter during playback with multiple layers of video, audio, and transitions/filters. But output will be OK.
    2. Make a Mark II pre-set as follows (one day FCP will include one, sigh):
    Select Audio/Video Settings.
    select Sequence Presets. Select this one to duplicate and modify: DV NTSC 48 kHz.
    Pull down Aspect Ratio and select HDTV 1080 i (16:9). that is is really correct but 1080p is not a choice but you will not convert to interlaced anyway.
    Change *Pixel Aspect Ratio* to SQUARE. Do NOT check Anamorphic 16:9
    Select *Field Dominance* Upper(Odd)
    *Editing Time base*: select 30
    *Timecode Path*: 30 Non-Drop Frame
    Compressor: H.264
    *Audio Settings*:
    Rate: 44 kHz, Depth: 16-bit, Config: Cannel Grouped
    Under SUMMARY tab in Audio/Video Settings:
    (make sure Sequence Preset shows name of the one you just made)
    Capture Preset: Generic Capture Template
    Device Control: Non-controllable device
    Video Playback: none
    Audio Playback: default
    Click Create Easy Setup (put in your Mark II name) and click Create
    Enable verification tab: checked
    NOW when you begin a new project, go to Easy Setup and pull down your newly-created Mark II preset. The tutorial I got this from said to be sure you create a NEW project or some default presets may still be in play.
    You may need TRANSCODING if your system still struggles with the above.
    Convert H.264 to a managable HD codec (Apple ProRes 422 or 422 (HQ) or DVCPRO HD 1080p30)
    I assume you would know the steps doing this, but if not, let me know.
    Would really like to know if this works for you. Have the Mark II on a short list of possibilities for a new camera.
    Good luck!

  • Can Canon 5D Mark II footage be edited in FCE at 1080p?

    Can Canon 5D Mark II footage be edited and outputted in FCE at 1080p?
    I am converting the raw 5D footage to Apple intermediate Codec using MPEG Stream Clip and then importing into FCE. Playback during editing is fine. Then I notice that in the easy set up options there doesn't seem to be an option to choose 1080p. Does that mean that FCE cannot edit/output 1080p files, or does it just mean that there is no easy setup for 1080p? What should my easy setup settings be for editing these files in FCE?
    Thanks for your help

    I converted to apple intermediate codec using MPEG streamclip to make it easier to edit in imovie (plays back smoother) so assumed it was best to do the same with FCE. Not necessary?
    The converted file data is
    H.264, 1920x1080, AIC, 16 bit, big endian, FPS30, 64.62 mb/s
    The original file data is
    H.264, 1920x1080, 16 bit, little endian, FPS30, 39.77 mb/s
    Thanks

  • Better playback of  Canon 5D Mark 2 footage in 4.1?

    Hi,
    since the update installations gives me errors all the time (my post here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/439764?tstart=0 ), I can't verify this myself:
    The readme of the PPro update say, that h.264 playback/handling is improved. So I was wondering, if the playback of native Canon 5D mark 2 files falls into this section also.
    I'm not talking about proxies or cineform's neo etc. I mean the raw quicktime footage from the camera...native...
    Since Canon annaunced yesterday that FULL MANUAL control (aperture, ISO, shutter) will be availible on june 2nd, this is pretty much the last (and 25p support in the cam) hurdle for editing the 5DII footage.
    Please let us know!

    I would try it out right away, but I'm not able to update my Production Premium for about 4 hours now. Well, I can download it, but the instalation quits with 3 errors. I made an extra post about it, but so far nobody seems to have the same issue.
    I read that somebody had some other issues with instalation, so maybe the uploded files aren't that "perfect" because adobe wanted it up by the end of may (like they said the would
    I've seen a few comments on installation errors already. Hope that that gets solved. It would be tough finally getting the long-awaited 4.1, only to find that it would not install, and may even mess things up. Fingers X'ed here. I also hope that Adobe was 100% satisfied with their efforts, and there was no Midnight-coding, as it was headed out the door.
    As for the footage from the Canon - I've only heard great things about it. Some of the after-market folk have already gotten on the bandwagon with all sorts of add-ons for it on the video side. There were a couple of interesting ads in last month's American Cinematographer. Apparently some companies feel that there will definitely be a market for "stuff" to use this camera and its lenses for doing some serious video work. Time will tell. Though I'm a Nikon-guy* on the still-side of life, this Canon does look sweet. Hope that 4.1 is all that users could ask for. Again, the fingers are X'ed.
    Good luck,

    * since my wife went digital, all of her point-n-shoot still cameras have been Canon. Now, I do not store these in the same room with my Nikons, but I do like their choices better than what Nikon offers.

  • Canon 5D Mark II Footage and Final Cut 5

    I recently received some footage shot with a Canon 5D Mark II that I will be needing to edit. It seems as though the ideal codec to use is ProRes but unfortunately I am working with Final Cut 5 and this is not an option. I was told that I could use Apple Intermediate Codec but that I would need to adjust the project settings to 1080/30 fps not interlaced. Can someone please confirm this and tell me how I can make those adjustments to my project settings. Also, will the clips require rendering when i place them on my timeline. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry, you did mention the AIC.
    Frame size-1920x1080
    P.A.R. - square
    Field Dominance - None
    Editing Timebase - same as your source clips. Check that in the Browser or in MPEG Streamclip. If you left it at 30 in Streamclip, stay with 30. If you changed it to 29.97 in Streamclip, make your sequence 29.97 also. If you bring in titles, make sure the clips are set to Field Dominance of None. I find that Final Cut wants to assume all 1080 is interlaced so it sets FD to Upper.

  • Problem with using Canon 5D Mark II footage with FCPX

    Looking for advice ,
    Avid have AMA link so you don't need to wast hard drive space, it conect directly to your raw footage and you can edit you don't need to transcode footage in order to edit. Does FCPX have that option ? The footage that I am using is Canon 5D mark II  after import i am ending up with raw footage and transcode footage Dubuling use of my space on HD . I would like to be able to dump my Canon 5D footage on hard drive conect with FCP(without dubuling footage) and start editing. I am doing someting wrong ? Need advice .
    Thanks
    A

    That is great thanks 
    My steps are these:
    1. From my card I add DCIM folder to FCP Events folder.
    2. Then I go to FCP X and import but then he is creating original media folder with (id) so then I guess I can delite DCIM since I can use for future editing that (id) raw footage .Is that corect? My hard drive is backing up everytime I add new footage to HD.
    Thanks

  • Log and Transfer with Canon 5d mark iii footage on OS 10.5

    FCP is not recognizing my SCDH card in the Log and Transfer window
    and I'm wondering why this is.
    I am running OS 10.5 - and there were no additional EOS drivers available
    on Canon's website for my OS.
    I am shooting with the new 5D mark iii. When I first got the Rebel T2i a few years
    back, I had the same problem and installing the Canon driver worked to
    get the card to show up in the Log and Transfer window.
    Does anyone have tips for how to get my Log and Transfer window to recognize
    a card from the 5D mark iii?
    Thanks.

    Hi, guys.
    In my experience, the best native format is ProRes MOV while the 5D Mark III recorded file is H.264 MOV. So I have been using a H.264 to ProRes MOV Converter to help me change the 5D Mark III H.264 MOV files before importing to FCP on my iMac. I found the way from Google. The below is the link.

  • Converting Canon 5D Mark II footage after the assembly stage

    I should have done my research ahead of time, but lesson learned.
    I've got a 19 minute assembly of my short film completed and have already started in on the rough cut, all in the 5D's native H.264 format. The glitchiness on my MBP i7 seemed odd but I was in the zone. Finally I decided to look into it and now I've been left to figure out how to get the work I've already done preserved while I convert all my footage to ProRes 422.
    I tried sending my entire bin's worth of clips through Compressor, but of course they all came out with filename's matching what I'd renamed them in the bin, so going the reconnect media route was a no go unless I wanted to do it one clip at a time, which I tried but even then I was having weird errors where the wrong clips were reconnecting - probably to do with us shooting on two cameras, and some of the file names overlapping? Hard to say exactly, but I decided to move on to a different approach.
    Now I'm converting the clips straight from the finder, one camera folder at a time so as to avoid any weird overlapping/rewriting glitches since I'm making sure the original file names are preserved.
    This way, when I go to reconnect media, I can point the clips from each camera to their respective folder in Finder and they will all go at once (I tested it with a small batch and it worked fine, right down to them being replaced in the sequence with the right ins and outs).
    I'll post an update when the whole job is done. I'm thinking it should work out, but you never know.
    If anyone has any suggestions for how this could have been done differently (apart from, you know, doing it right the first time), please feel free to share. I'm hoping this will serve as a helpful thread to anyone who, for whatever the reason, finds themselves in a similar situation.
    Cheers!
    Darcy

    Thanks for this!
    One minor distinction with my project is that with two cameras we wound up with two sets of clips with filenames that for the most part were duplicated, so they had to be kept in separate folders, meaning an extra couple of steps in running through Compressor and relinking in FCP so as to avoid the wrong clip relinking with the wrong footage.
    The important thing is to make sure the encoded footage keeps the same filenames as the source. I'm not sure if it's necessary to move the source footage anywhere, or to put the newly encoded footage in the same folder the source footage lived in. When I relinked my footage, I simply had to choose the Locate option, which would find the original footage, then navigate to the folder where the ProRes footage lived and it grabbed onto all of it without a hitch. I had to do this for each camera's folder, which was a bit of a pain since I hadn't kept them separate in my project bin, but with a little due diligence it worked out perfectly.
    Case in point, my project is now back up and running with the ProRes footage, with all my sequences preserved. Like you said, all I did for the final step was change the sequence settings to ProRes and now everything is as it should be. Footage plays back smooth, even in full screen, edits are clean and effects play back properly.
    And here I was thinking my MBP i7 wasn't up to snuff. Almost feels like a new system again.
    About the suggestion to go LT over HQ, I'd like to direct you to this article on the matter.
    In a nutshell, the naked eye can't tell the difference, but if you had to do any keying you'd run into problems with the lower quality LT footage.
    Personally, I think you should always work with the highest quality footage you can. The only real concern HQ presents over LT appears to be file size, so unless you are on some sort of super tight budget, or are working with a mountain of footage across multiple projects at once, then this shouldn't be reason enough to go LT over HQ. I have a 2TB drive dedicated solely to my short film (and a second one for backing up), so I can't see any good reason for opting for lower quality footage. Even if your naked eye can't tell the difference, you'll be kicking yourself later if you need to do something with that footage that the HQ option would have better suited towards.
    Thanks again for the response!
    Anyone else care to chime in?

  • Working with footage from Canon 5D Mark ii

    Hi
    I have recently started working with video taken on a Canon 5D Mark ii.
    Should I always convert all my footage into Apple Pro Res 422 (HQ) when I want to edit HD 1920x1080 footage?
    Also I have just finished a project not knowing that this might have to be done, and when I added colour correction the exported quick time conversion looked terrible.
    Is there any way to save this edit, or should I just convert the origional footage and start again?!
    Thanks

    This is a topic that gets discussed a lot, and i'm curious if anyone has any more insight into it. From what i understand, ProRes HQ is 10-bit codec, while normal ProRes is 8-bit. The footage coming off of your h.264 camera is in 8-bit space, so if you encode it to 10-bit, you're just getting filling in a bunch of extra space. it's like building a 3-car garage for your motorcycle.
    One of the reasons the files get so much larger going from H.264 to APR is that H.264 is an inter-frame codec, meaning that it uses information from more than one frame and evaluates the changes from frame to frame to calculate what any individual frame should look like. This means you don't need to store as much raw data for each frame, but it's more processing intensive to calculate the image from what's there. Final cut doesn't like to do this kind of calculation, at least in its current incarnation. So you convert it to APR 422, which is an Intra-frame codec, which stores all of the information for each frame individually in one place, even if it's a relatively unchanging shot. this means a lot more raw data, but it also means final cut can just look in one place for each frame and not have to figure out how to build it out of the surrounding frames. larger files, but easier on the program.
    premiere is supposedly kicking *** right now with dealing with this kind of stuff. and they are integrating h.264 specific chipsets in some of the newer computers, so it may become less of an issue in the future. from what i understand anyway.
    anyway. if anyone has any other shades of clarification about what's going on with the technical sides of that stuff, i'm trying to get more clear myself.

  • Exporting Canon 5D footage - colours are washed out

    Hi, I am a film student. It seems everyone but me cuts in Apple Final Cut Pro but I can't get my head around Apple as a whole and much prefer Premiere Pro. I working in CS5.5 Here is my current problem. I have the job of synching audio and video from a film shoot. The vision was shot on Canon 5D Mark II and the audio is .wav format, which was recorded on an external recorder. I need to replace the camera audio with the cleaner and more professional .wav files, and then I have to give the synched footage to another student who will edit on Final Cut Pro.  The clips are 1920 x 1080 (1.0) 23.976 fps. The clips i have received are .mov. My project settings match perfectly the footage settings. I have now tried exporting in 15 different formats, and in every single case, the colour of the exported files is very washed out compared with the original .mov file. If I give this to the editor to work with, I'll be shot I'm sure, for being so recalcitrant. It needs to be lossless and full quality. So please someone - urgently - can you help me?  I only have tomorrow to finish this and there are around 80 shots I need to synch and export in that time. Thanks,  Nicky

    1. If you're using Internet Explorer, set it to 'Compatibility View' so as to be able to upload images.
    2. So as to judge on colour shift you need at least to compare like with like. It's not clear from your screenshot how and where you watch your original footage. Is it also Windows Media Player or another player on your computer?
    Also H.264 is a highly compressed 8-bit delivery codec, with which you can experience quite visible quality loss over every next encoding (generation loss). Production codecs, like mentioned above UT Video or DNxHD, let you avoid dramatic generation loss, preserving visual quality.
    3. When you encode to DNxHD 4:2:2 (that's what you were doing), set Color Levels to 'RGB Levels':
    Set Color Levels to '709' when you encode to DNxHD 4:4:4
    DO NOT interfere with the Depth settings when encoding to DNxHD and generally avoid using 'Maximum Render Quality'.
    4. Since you wisely cropped the left part of the Export Setting dialog box, it's unclear whether you see video output on exporting or not.
    5. With high probability Windows Media Player won't be able to play MOV files with DNxHD codec inside. You need to play them back in QuirkTime, which, in turn, applies crooked colour management. You need to disable it. If you're on a PC with NVIDIA card, open up NVIDIA Control Panel, go to Video -> Adjust video color settings and in the How do you make color adjustments? section choose 'With the NVIDIA settings'.

  • Can Premiere Pro smart render footage from a Canon 5D mark III ?

    I already read that Premiere Pro can smart render certain codecs. But I want to know exactly: Can it smart render the video from a Canon 5D mark III?
    In case smart render is not very specific: I'm asking if it can export the footage after cutting without rencoding it by just saving the individual frames into a new video container with the same codec. This should increase export time alot.
    I'm asking because I have Premiere Elements and this feature would be the only reason for me to switch to Pro. I currently need 40 Minutes to render 10 Minutes. As a journalist I need to be faster.

    Do you have any other tips how to boost export speed? I don't need the video to be small. I only do a raw edit where I cut out the junk. Quality loss should be minimal and speed ist most important.
    Its hard to know if your export speed is normal or otherwise without some detail from you for comparison.
    Hardware, system, OS and current export settings and times etc..
    Generally the system and set up will determine the speed and editing experience.
    5D footage should be no problem at all to a decent system ( and setup)
    If you do a test export for us...tell us how long the export takes for how much footage .  eg 1 minute footage = X export time.
    No Effects.

  • Low quality export for stop motion animation stills from Canon 5D Mark ii

    Thank you very much beforehand to anyone who is willing to look through this issue, it's been a long and frustrating process so far...
    I am attempting to put together a stop motion animation in Final Cut Express but my exports are always either low quality, or medium quality and stretched. I am shooting on a Canon 5D Mark ii set to take pictures at 21M 5616x3744 [999] (though I'm not entirely sure what the 21M or 999 mean).
    When I first assembled my stills (unedited or altered in any way) and exported, it looked like this:
    A relatively drastic loss in colour and quality. This was achieved exporting through quicktime conversion using the following settings:
    Compression Type: H.264
    Compressor Quality: Best
    Size: 1920x1080 HD
    Preserve aspect ratio using: Crop
    Deinterlace source video: unchecked
    Unhappy with the result, I went through hours of testing and researching which only yielded a result after I discovered the control-Q Easy Setup menu. I tried setting up as an apple intermediate codec using HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60 at 29.97 fps. I kept the export settings the same as above, but knowing that I was now working with a canvas that keeps to the 16:9 proportions, I tried cropping one of my stills in photoshop to fit that 16:9 ratio.
    I then imported my 16:9 cropped still and an unedited JPEG version from my camera and exported the resulting 10 second video. The result was better quality, but still noticeably degraded from the original stills. More importantly, both the cropped 16:9 and the unedited JPEG were stretched out of proportion as seen below (16:9 version):
    Of course I forgot to note the original settings on Easy Setup so I can't figure out how to get back to the original lower quality, yet undistorted image (not that I want to do that). I tried numerous different sizes for the export including changing the Crop (when necessary) setting to letterbox. Nothing worked.
    The canvas, however, immediately looked 100% better after switching the Easy Setup to HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60 at 29.97 fps. It held the improved quality without distorting the image:
    I'm not sure if there's any hope of having a great image quality, but at very least I would like to be able to export at the decent quality of the second screenshot without the stretching and cropping.
    I need to have this resolved ASAP for work, I've already wasted too much time here. Any help is so appreciated, I'll be active in providing whatever additional information that I can to responders, though please keep in mind that I'm relatively new to all this, I don't know where to find everything

    I've decided just to try to get back to the export that I showed in the first screenshot. That result came before I started tampering with the Easy Setup. Like I said, when I changed the setup the canvas quality improved drastically and the dimensions seemed to fit much better, but the export was vertically stretched and cropped. I just reset my FCE settings and it turns out the default setup is DV-NTSC, but it's giving me a terrible quality still...
    I just want to get back to that second screenshot's quality.. Could someone suggest what I should switch the easy setup to for importing stills from my Canon 5D Mark ii to yield the right results?

  • Canon 5d Mark ii not logging any footage

    Howdy-
    I have a Canon 5d Mark ii using FCP7. I always use the Log and Transfer plugin (The E1 that you obtain from Canon's website) to import footage, however when I went to use it the other day, and I clicked it, it did not read any files like it normally should. I click the external card that it is located on and nothing happens. Please help! I have a large project due soon! Thanks!

    Reading at your first post it sounds like you are logging and transferring direct from the card in the camera. If so, whilst it can be done, this is wrong. You need to make a copy of the entire contents to a hard drive on or connect to your computer.
    From the message you are getting you don't have all the data needed for log and transfer to import, its some how corrupted, or do you have still images on the card as well? Sometimes this causes a problem.

  • Is anyone using iMovie 08 for editing footage from a Canon 5D Mark 11?

    I'm interested to converse with anyone that is using iMovie 08 to edit Movie files from the Canon 5D Mark 11.

    HI Stephen,
    I have iMovie 09 on order hoping that it would alleviate this issue - sounds like it does not. Similarly to you, my footage imports fine, but the application crashes when the curser is moving over the video. I am lead to believe that iMovie just cannot cope with the high resolution of the 5D Mark 11.
    I have tried the same files on other Macs and the same issue occurs, so it is not my machine or software issues on my machine. All of my software is up to date - except for Quicktime. I am running 7.5.5, so don't bother trying to roll back from 7.6 because it will not help.
    I have also tried the footage on Final Cut Express and it crashes that application as well. I understand the Final Cut Pro can work with the files. At this stage I presume that Canon 5D mark11 users cannot edit footage on iMovie or FCE and possibly some other applications.
    Let us hope and pray that Apple and Canon can sort this out!

  • HELP! CANON 5D MARK III TO FCP 7- WHAT IS CORRECT COMPRESSION? LINES THROUGH VIDEO-HELP!

    Hi there, so Ive just upgraded from the T2i to Canon 5D Mark III and this is the first time I'm importing footage to final cut. I have FCP 7 (Mac computer) and my video files are 1920x1080, h264 codec shot at 30 fps (29.97). Previously, when importing from the T2i, I used MPEG Streamclip to convert my video files to Apple Prores 422, and then import those compressed files into FCP 7, with field dominance being UPPER, pixels SQUARE. I never had an issue of quality loss or lines through my viewer and canvas using these settings. However, after attempting to do the same with my footage from the Mark III, I got lines through my footage. After researching a bit, I was convinced that the way to eliminate the problem was to download the 5DTORGB app for $50. This has not fixed my problem! Have tried multiple combinations of different field dominance settings and nothing is working. Is this an interlacing problem? I attempted to catch a screenshot but everytime I pause the video or take a shot, the lines do not show...I do not know what is going on! My original mov files are fine, it is only once I convert and import to final cut that they get these little lines... I am desperate for answers, please someone help!!!

    Still no change....However, I did export a trial and the vid looks fine, no lines. I guess fcp is just being a little *****! It is just really frustrating me to have to work with these lines going through my clips, even if they do not appear in my exported file....I feel that there must be some hidden issue with my sequence settings....Could you possibly provide a screenshot of the appropriate sequence settings you would use to match a 1920x1080 file with 29.97 fps (already converted from h264 to apple prores 422 thru 5DTORGB) ? I know that usually it is fine to import the newly compressed prores files, and then set sequence to match clips, but since I'm having issues, maybe setting the sequence directly would help?
    This is what my sequence settings look like right now, after being matched to my prores clip....
    I am concerned because it shows Aspect ratio as HDTV 1080i (16:9) though you have told me my clips from the 5D should be progressive (so shouldnt it be 1080p not 1080i??) Being that there is not option in frame size for 1080p, i tried selecting the "Custom (16:9)" option, but it will not allow it...Just sets it back to 1080i......Any thoughts?
