Importing/capturing compactflash disk files from Canon xf 100

files show up as .cif, .xml, .mxf, and .sif. All of them are grayed out when I try and open/import? It's a brand new Canon XF100, recording in MPEG-2 Long codec. How do I get them into FCP?

Download the Log and Transfer plugin from the Canon site for that camera, install it. Restart...
Use FCP and Log and Transfer. Here's the workflow: Tapeless Workflow for FCP 7 Tutorial

  • Aperture 3.0 not importing RAW files from Canon T1i

    I have recently upgraded to Aperture 3.0. I shoot with Canon T1i in RAW+JPG file size. When importing files from Canon T1i for the first time to Aperture 3.0, I found that all files imported as jpg not RAW. How do I get the RAW files? Help!!!
    Anjali

    It does support Canon T1i RAW mode. In the "Import Settings", there's a section for "RAW+JPEG Pairs". If you don't see this, click the "Import Settings" pulldown menu and select it.
    In the "RAW+JPEG Pairs" section, there's a pulldown menu to allow you to select "Both (RAW as Master)"
    It'll use the JPEG as the "Preview" image, but it will use the RAW as the master for all adjustments you want to perform.
    Prior to the import, you should see both the JPEG and RAW (.CR2) files. AFTER the import, you should only see the RAW in your project (it has the JPEG... but it wont normally display it because it knows the RAW is the master.) After the import, select any photo in your project, then click the "metadata" tab on the left. At the top it should give you the camera, lens, exposure info, etc. and you should see the "RAW" icon.

  • Cannot import video file from Canon Vixia hfs10 to imovie'11.

    Hi this is my first post on this site.
    I am having trouble trying to import video files from Canon Vixia hfs10 to imovie'11. The computer does not even recognize this camcorder. When I do a PC connection, iphoto comes up, but all it tells me to import are the pictures that I have taken.
    No matter what I do, I cannot find the folder for my camcorder in the device section in the finder.
    When I try to import it on imovie, I only get an option for facetime camera and not my vixia.
    Please help!

  • Do I need to upgrade both LR 5.7 and Camera Raw 8.7 to import files from Canon 7dMark2?  or is LR 5.7 enough or is camera raw 8.7 enough

    Do I need to upgrade both LR 5.7 and Camera Raw 8.7 to import files from Canon 7dMark2?  or is LR 5.7 enough or is camera raw 8.7 enough

    Lightroom is a complete stand alone program and does not require you to have any other Adobe product on your computer.
    Adobe Camera Raw is a plugin for Photoshop CS and is not require by Lightroom nor is it used by Lightroom.
    However if you are using both Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CS6 /Photoshop CC and wish them to 100% compatible then you will need to update the ACR Plugin in Photoshop.
    Lightroom 5.7 will work fine with your Canon 7dMk2. (Its internal processing engine is the equivalent of ACR 8.7)
    To wit LR 5.7 is an alternative to ACR 8.7 Plugin in Photoshop, you do not necessarily need both.

  • Must I use a converter program to import movie files from Canon powershot s95?

    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    With Elements 11 you cannot.
    The SX60 HS was first supported in  Camera Raw 8.7 which is only compatible with Elements 13 and later.
    Options:
    Pay to upgrade to Elements 13
    Free option: download the Adobe DNG converter, convert all SX60 HS Raw files to DNG format then edit the DNGs in Elements 11

  • Does "RAW files from Canon digital cameras cannot be downloaded" MATTER??

    Need to buy new camera to use with my G5 and iPHoto 5. I desire (1) affordability, (2) more optical zoom than what I've had in past (want to move from 4x to 6x), and (3) compatible with my G5.
    I've had 2 canon powershost (my last, the 570, but a kid dropped it). Easy to use. So maybe simliar, or something nicer.
    Been studying the Canon web site about their various cameras. For the above reasons I like thePowerShot SX100 IS, about $240. 6x optical zoom.
    HOWEVER, in the MAC OSX compatibility section at Canon it has this quote:
    * Mac OS X 10.1 and newer come with Image Capture drivers that support most of Canon's digital cameras with USB interfaces. When a compatible camera is connected to a compatible Mac computer running OS X 10.1 and newer, the computer detects the camera and automatically launches Image Capture. This Apple program allows JPEG images in the camera to be downloaded to the Macintosh. NOTE: RAW files from Canon digital cameras cannot be downloaded in OS X via Image Capture. We suggest the use of File Viewer Utility or an external card reader. Also, movie files shot with PowerShot cameras cannot be downloaded in OS X via Image Capture or iPhoto. We suggest the use of ImageBrowser or an external card reader.
    Additionally, Image Capture can access JPEG images directly from a CompactFlash card using an OS X-compatible card reader or using a PC Card Adapter in the PC Card slot of an Apple PowerBook.**
    This line caught me confused: *RAW files from Canon digital cameras cannot be downloaded*
    In the past, I just plugged in the Canon Camera, and iPhoto 5 opened, and I h appily downloaded the picts and off and away I was.
    Will this still happen??? And if I'm not getting the "RAW" picts (whatever that is), but just the JPEGS I'm used to, am I not getting "all" the picts, or the best that my camera could be given me for eventually printing?
    Am I worrying about nothing?
    Finally, any camera suggestions? Under $300 , super picts, 5-10x zoom, and friendly with my Mac
    Thanks

    You know, because you ask the question, I'll guess that it won't really matter to you...
    Every camera shoots RAW - that's the total information that the sensor on the camera sees, but mid- and lower end cameras process this RAW data into an easy to use format such as jpegs.
    Many (but not all) Pros demand that the camera provide all the data to the computer, so that the photographer can process the images him/her self. For most casual and family users this is not an issue. For the serious hobbyist and the Pro it might well be.
    For more on Raw have a look at this:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rawimageformat
    Btw, later versions of iPhoto do work with Some Raw formats.
    As to cameras:
    I used a Canon S2 IS for a couple of years and found it really good. There's and S3 and an S5 now too. Currently I'm using a Panasonic FZ8. I really like it.

  • When will Elements11 support CR2 files from Canon 70D  ? Or is an upgrade necessary ?

    As it is now RAW files from Canon 70D is not recognized by Elements 11. And Adobe don't ship any upgrade, only to Lightroom and PCC/Bridge. Is there a workaround ?

    PSE 11 will not be upgraded to support this camera. You need either:
    Purchase PSE12 or PSE13 ... or ...
    Download and install and use the free Adobe DNG Converter version 8.2 or later, convert your RAWs to DNG and then import the DNGs into PSE 11

  • 1080p30 .mov files from canon eos 5DMarkII in Final cut express 4.0.1

    Hi everybody.
    i need some help to import HD vidéo .mov files from Canon Eos 5DMarkII in final cut express.
    The files is in 1080p30 (h264) like avchd but in the final cut configuration i have only 50i and 60i option in HDV and AVCHD
    Final cut necessity to do a render (5h for 15min on my G5) and the movement quality is not the same.
    Anybody have a idea to import Progressive files in final cut ?
    maybe they have an update with new avchd 1080p codec in configuration ?
    or i need final cut pro...?
    Thanks in advance
    and sorry for my english...i'm french

    There is no good solution for working with this camera in FCE. It's 30fps progressive. There is no true video format that is 30fps. This is something Canon was cobbled together for this stills camera.
    You can use MPEG Streamclip to convert the material to QuickTime using the Apple Intermediate Codec at 1920x1080. I think that's what it shoot. You should check the camera manual to confirm it shoots 1920 and not 1440.
    The problem is the frame rate. You can convert it to 29.97fps or to 25fps. 25fps conforms to the European frame rate, but I don't know how well Streamclip will do this conversion. You also need to make sure the material is not interlaced by Streamclip.
    The other problem is that FCE handles 1080 as an interlaced format, because for production it's supposed to be an interlaced format, at least in the formats, HDV and AVCHD, that FCE works with. You can set your sequence properties to have no field dominance, which should prevent it interlacing during compositing of any effects.

  • Importing jpg and CR files from HD

    I have just started using Lightroom 4.4. In importing jpg or CR files from my HD,  I get "Preview unavailable for this file", although: 1) the jpg files were generated by using Photoshop CS4, 2) these photos can be "seen"  by Photoshop elements 11 and iPhoto. Any help?
    Mike

    It is not a work around - it is a better workflow - shooting RAW plus JPEG and then deleting the JPEGs make no sense and have no value - shoot what you want and when you shoot RAW Photos makes a JPEG which you can access or export should you need it - shooting both is a waste of time, SD card space and disk space
    to delete the JPEGs you can make a smart album with the criteria Photo is JPEG and delete the JPEGs by selecting a photo or photos there and holding down the command and motions keys and pressing delete

  • Convert files from Canon C300

    Hi,
    I want to convert files from Canon C300, but i can only import one by one file. Is it possible ti import all in the same time?
    The Canon C300 files are encapsulated, i just have access to MXF file when i open folder by folder.
    I'm in iMac, Yosemite.
    Thanks,
    Lise

    Thank you for the reply.  I have struggled with this problem for about 6 weeks.  Got bum information from both Canon and Adobe.  Grew discouraged.
    As a “test” after reading the discussion, I downloaded the trial version of Elements 10.  It contained RC 6.6, which would not do the S100.  I “updated”
    to 6.7 which finally did the job.  I’m really curious as to why the download of Elements 10 doesn’t “ship” with the latest RC?  I guess just to maintain
    confusion for as long as possible.
    Thanks again.  Only your reply enabled a final solution.

  • I imported my iweb site files from my desktop to my laptop and now they wont open up in iweb

    Hi,
    I imported my iweb site files from my desktop to my laptop and now they wont open up in iweb.
    I can see the files in the home/sites folder but cant seem to be able to replace them with the site that is already in iweb?
    I have just upgraded to lion on the macbook pro and was using 10.4.x on the desktop.
    Is there any way to replace the files and work on the web site on the MBP?
    And I dont see the library/application support/iweb folder anywhere.
    Much appreciate the feedback.
    Thanks

    As I said earlier, iWeb does not open/import webpages.
    And yes, you need the domain file. The movie demonstrates how to move them to and from the default location.
    And the page explains how to open the hidden library folder in Lion. Which is also discussed in the Lion forum and extensively in this one.

  • I have Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded the plug in 6.0 and it works on the RAW files from Canon EOS 60D, but not with Canon EOS 70D. I cannot download higher versions of plug in, because I have Windows Vista and it is not supported.

    You could try using the DNG converter 8.7 on Windows vista:

    <Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
    You then need to watch this video to get hang of it:
