.mov files from  - Canon EOS 5D Mark ll  -  iPod Nano

I am looking at purchasing both these items with their promise to
deliver video files in the .mov format.
I am wondering whether anyone can confirm that is a 1-step transfer
into FCP, or is there fine print I need to read ? I understand going in
that the video quality of the Nano will be what it is, but wonder also
if anyone has experience with the video coming out of the Canon EOS 5D
Mark II ?
Thanks for any help,

    Let's get into a little more detail.
    The moniker ".mov" doesn't really mean much. It means "a movie that QT can play back" - a very generic statement. Saying that a movie is a QuickTime movie is saying nothing of the underlying codec. You might have a hundred movie files with the ending ".mov" and they could all be using different codecs like: Motion Jpeg, DV, XDCam, DVCPro, DVCPro HD, H.264 and so on.... So to answer the question, "...Does the fact that it is already an .mov file make it more of a drag and drop thing?" The answer is, No. Here's why:
    The 5D (and 7D) shoot a ".mov" file, yes. But specifically it's of the H.264 flavor. This is a burdensome codec. It's processor intensive. It's not meant for editing, it's meant for delivery. Furthermore, if there are going to be advances with it's native editability it's going to happen at the happen on hardware and software that are of the most current standards. And besides, that's still a big if.
    There are no current machines that have true drag-drop-edit (without pain) the raw Canon .mov files. If you're thinking your current computer can't handle "hi-def footage" then it most certainly won't handle the (HD) camera native files. That doesn't mean you can't edit the footage. You'll just be back to what's been mentioned before: transcoding. You can always transcode to the highest quality codec that your Mac can handle and edit in that format. DVCPro HD? DV, at least! Don't know - whatever your machine can handle.
    Summary: Native 5D camera files ---> FCP = painful, even with newest hardware/software. Rule is transcode. This is the only way people are efficiently working with this footage right now.
    Footage Quality - it's quite nice! There's tons of video all over Vimeo with it now. It's a great concept that will only get better. Snoop around here too. There are tons of sample footage on the web. It is highly compressed though. All that info, and with tiny files, the information is going someplace! Being discarded. Learning to maximize an environment's given conditions will lead to minimizing the camera's inherent artifacts.
    The next question to ask yourself is do you want this camera mostly for the HD movie mode or photography? The new 7D has some compromises compared to the 5D but has some things that the 5D doesn't, yet. Like framerates. The 5D is, for now, strictly 30P, while the 7D sports 24P, 25P 30P and 50P & 60P at 720P (instead of the full 1920x1200).
    Hopefully that answers some questions regarding FCP dealing with the native camera files. Other than that: 5D or 7D? Both have some worthwhile merits to consider.

  • 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.

  • 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:

  • .mov file from Canon 5D Mark II file blurry in Timeline

    Haven't use FC in quite a while, so I'm a bit rusty.
    When I import a clip into FC, it looks fine in the Viewer, but when I move it into the timeline it looks blurry in the Canvas. It remains blurry even after rendering and even after exporting with no compression. The file is a .mov file from a Canon 5D Mark II. I tried exporting it from QT as a QT file with no compression, as well as just importing the uncompressed .mov file, but nothing works. I'm sure it's something simple.
    Thanks for any help!

  • Photoshop Elements cannot open Camera RAW from Canon EOS 7D Mark ii

    I just bought Canon EOS 7D mark ii camera.  I have Photoshop Elements 12.  The program is unable to open RAW images.The message is "the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by installed version of camera Raw".
    I downloaded 8.7.1 plugin but that is also not able to open the image.

    You need Adobe camera raw version 8.7 Unfortunately your software pre-dates the camera. ACR 8.7 is only compatible with PSE13. But it is possible to download and install the free DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will open in PSE12 (keep your CR2's as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.7.1
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.7.1
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • Photoshop CS5.1 won't read raw files from Canon EOS M

    Photoshop cs5.1 won't read raw files from canon eosM, what to do?

    The EOS M requires at least Camera Raw 7.2 but Raw 7.2 is only compatible with CS6 or higher (CS5 is only compatible up to Raw 6.7)
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    To open and edit Raw files, either upgrade to CS6 or join the Cloud and get the CC version.
    Alternatively convert the Raw files from the EOS M to DNGs using the free DNG converter then edit the DNGs in CS5.1

  • H.264 mov files from Canon 5D Mark II running at incorrect speed?

    What is causing the mov. files recorded at 25 fps Imported from a Canon 5D Mark II
    PAL to run at 2.5 fps on the Timeline of Premiere Pro ? And it looks like it.This all happened after the Firmware Upgrade 2.0.4
    The camera is recording at the right speed according to the LCD and it runs correctly in Premiere Elements ?.
    Message was edited by: Bob Dix

    Interesting approach., Canon seem to think it might be the camera ? Which I
    doubt because the mov H264 files are easily opened in Premiere Elements and
    work very well., I am reluctant to send it back as I think the Problem is in
    Premiere but, where ?

    Ps . The problem is not fixed, Canon Australia is looking at the issue, the Canon EOS 5 D Mark II is recording at 25 fps. They believe the problem is within Adobe Premier Pro ? Perhaps even a computer problem any ideas.

  • Aperture does not support Small Raw files from Canon EOS 5D MK II

    Hi,
    I recently bought a new Canon EOS 5D MK II camera and started shooting on SmallRaw format, but Aperture simply refused to process those files. It only shows a preview of around 3 inches only. I don't know what's wrong either with my OS 10.5.6 or Aperture 2.
    Now that I've returned to Digital Photo Professional from Canon to process the image. Please help, I don't want to break my workflow.

  • CR2 files from Canon EOS 7D

    I am attempting to download pictures from my Canon EOS 7D and it will download only 2 of the 111 I hae on the memory card and claims the ramining 109 are in an incompatible CR2 format.  The two pictures it is downloading are also in the same CR2 file format & I've used this same exact camera half a hundred times to download into iPhoto using exclusively the CR2 RAW format (most recently as of last night & it worked just fine then), so I can't figure out why all the sudden it's refusing to work.  Anybody have any ideas on a fix?
    Note: I have iPhoto version 9.5.1 & OSX 10.9.2.  Both fully upgraded.

    It ould be a glitch on the card.
    Can you access them with Image Capture (in the Applications Folder)?

  • Reading RAW files from Canon EOS 550D

    I take pictures in RAW and process them with Elements 8.  I had no problems when using a Canon EOS 1000D but now that I am using a 550D Elements is not reading the files.  It is not just that it will not open them - it does not even read them as files.
    I know that the camera is capturing good files, and that they are transfering to the computer because I can read them with the Canon utility Digital Photo Professional.
    What do I need to do in order to get Elements to recognise my files?

    I purchased PSE8 and installed it then ran the download 5.7 and discovered it still does not work by putting the Camera Raw.8bi file into the Photoshop Elements 8.0 Plug ins file as detailed on Adobe's instructions. It still would not import the raw files.  I then discovered another method through another helpful thread to place it as follows:
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 8\File Formats\Camera Raw.8bi
    This works!  The only downside is that when you open the editor from the organiser you get a bad command box saying that it does not like the Camera Raw.8bi file in this location, but if you ignore this message it still proceeds to open the editor and you can proceed as normal. I have tried to put the Camera Raw.8bi into the other Plug-In files to see if it behaves better without any luck, so if anyone has any further ideas to stop this bad command box then everything will be as it is meant to be!
    To be honest this update has been available for months so its also up to Adobe to pull their finger out and get it corrected because they are still giving the same instructions for newer updates as well.
    I hope this helps somebody !!

  • Reading .CS2 files from Canon EOS 40D to Photoshop.CS Ver. 8.0

    I have take pictures of a painting with a Canon EOS 40D for future printing onto canvas for resale.
    I have Photoshop.CS version 8.0 which is not able to read the .cs2 files ("Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document")
    I downloaded Camera_RAW_3.7.zip (Camera Raw.8bi - Jan. 30,2007) from Adobe and put it in the c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins\File Formats directory
    I tried accessing the .cs2  files with the same results. (Note: there was also an old Camera Raw.8BI (Oct. 13,2003) file in the c:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins\File Formats directory which I removed to another directory)
    I then downloaded, installed an Adobe DNG Converer 9.0 and converted the images files from .cs2 to .dns.
    I tried accessing the .dns files with Photoshop.CS version 8 with no success: ("Could not complete your request because this version of Photoshop does not supply the services required by this plug-in module")
    Any other ideas?
    We need to prepare this image soon with Photoshop.CS to have it printed on canvas for sale to a customer.
    Thanks

    First of all, photoshop cs can only use up to camera raw 2.4, so you need to remove all the other camera raw 8bi plugins and install the camera raw 2.4 plugin for photoshop cs.
    (you can only have one Camera Raw.8bi plugin in the photoshop plugins folder or photoshop doesn't know which one to use)
    Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows : Camera Raw 2.4 update
    The Camera Raw.8bi should go in
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins\File Formats (64 bit windows system)
    or
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plug-Ins\File Formats (32 bit windows system)
    Then you can use the dngs you converted using adobe dng converter 9.0 in photoshop cs.
    It's possible you may have to set the compatibility in the dng converter Preferences to Camera Raw 2.4 and later when converting the canon 40d files to dng in order for photoshop cs to read them.
    Sample canon 40d file downloaded and then converted to dng used in below screenshot came from here:
