Which video camera works best with Premiere Pro CS6

I'm a beginner in working with PP and need to purchase a video camera which will work seemlessly with Premiere Pro.  I don't want to go through a lot of conversion steps. I want to tape my kids sports, be able to take the raw video right from the camera to PP and begin editing, copying etc. Does the Canon HFM 500 with ABCHD formats provide what I need or do I need something more sophisticated?  Just getting started with the whole video editing thing and want to make the right choices before buying a camera. Thanks for any input.

  • Which Digidesign interfaces work best with Logic Pro ?

    Can anyone tell which of these work best with Logic if any at all?
    - Digi-003
    - M-Box Pro
    - M-box2
    - M-Box mini
    - M-Powered

    Thanks for the posts
    After hearing complaints about latency, driver
    issues, horrible quality,incompatibility with there
    plugs in logic as well as no chance to stand against
    performances and sound quality of other hardware half
    there prices i thought to ask.
    Wow. All that??? And then they recommend Migraine-Audio to you??? I don't think those posters know what they are talking about.
    I've been using Logic since it could be used with Digidesign hardware, from version 4.8.1, and it has always worked very well.
    It does pay to research the setting up of a DAW computer, as it is almost never just "plug-n-play" like many people believe. But once it is set up, it can run for years without problems. Most people experience problems because they change the setup, install free plugins, change audio gear, every other day of the week, and of course, that makes for a very unstable situation. No wonder they complain. But it is their tech-ethic they should be complaining about, not the equipment.
    Can anyone verify there set ups and latency?
    Here's one extensive test I did on my Digi 002R:
    http://nicksevilla.com/logicpro-som/LogicTests.html
    The latency is the same as with other comparable FireWire interfaces. Not more, and not less.
    i wont drag this out into a long post i just want a
    round about, all logic users in other forums seem to
    be against Digi hardware, most advised to buy the
    cheapest possible M-Audio interface just to run M
    Powered Pro Tools if i realy need PT at all.
    Really??? All of them???And did they know they are advising you to buy stuff that actually does NOT work properly??? Shame on those posters you read, as Digidesign drivers are a LOT more stable that the Migraine-Audio ones. Digidesign themselves told me to stay away from M-Audio... so you read into that whatever you like. I'll keep that advise from them.

  • Which OSX version works best with Logic Pro 7.2

    Hello everyone,
    Was hoping i could get some opinions on which osx version works best with logic 7.2
    i currently have OSX 10.4.2 but i would like to update at least to 10.4.3 (that is least required to run logic as stated in install manual)...
    should i go for 10.4.4, 10.4.5 or 10.4.6 ?
    which would run best with logic pro 7.2?
    thanks much everyone
    Quad G5 2.5ghz 3GB RAM   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  
    Quad G5 2.5ghz 3GB RAM   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    10.4.5 was rock solid for me, and three days into heavy Logic use at 10.4.6 is proving to be just as good.
    Get caught up, and go ahead and update to 10.4.6

  • Which Mac Pro System works best with Premiere Pro CC?

    I am looking to upgrade my 12 core tower to the newer Mac Pro. I am wondering if anyone out there has suggestion as to what makes the most sense financially in terms of which  flavor of Mac Pro to get? For example, Is there a significant speed increase between the 8 core vs 12 core, and the D500 Vs the D700 Video Cards ? And how much RAM ? Normally the temptation is to go out and get the maxed out system, but reading though the forums with the various issues people are having with performance on the newer Mac Pro's and Premiere, would be great to know how it stacks up in the real world.
    Appreciate any input in this regard.
    Cheers

    Yes, thanks I forgot about that. I was just going by what I have, which is an older model so I can apparently just replace it with a newer Quadro.
    I'm no apple hardware expert and I'm not sure how the ports are setup. Apple's official support site only lists the AMD cards Chris mentioned for their most recent model, but that's also listed as late 2013 which doesn't seem right either. (or is it?) Note that they also list my mid-2010 model as only supporting ATI Radeon HD 577 and 5870 but I've been running a Quadro FX4800 in it with good results for several years, so I know that part's not right. So I'm not sure I'd take that site entirely literally, but of course you would not want to risk getting the wrong card. You should probably enlist the help of apple support (and/or forums) to get more details and assurance before purchasing, but bottom line is you'll want something with plenty of RAM (~ 4 GB or higher if possible) which will also be compatible with CUDA and or OPenCL playback in prpro.

  • Which midi controller works best with Logic Pro?

    I want pads to make drum loops etc.   I'd also like to slice and edit samples.  So far I've looked at Akai MPCs and N.I. Maschine.

    OK I found one... the Akai LPD8.  Excellent product.  It is so much more intuitive to play drums on these 8 pads rather than on the keyboard. You don't need the displays or extra pads of the more expensive models.  This has a nice on screen editor that is very programmable and it was plug-and-play in UltraBeat.  It's powered through the supplied USB cable so you don't need a power adapter. This is strictly a controller and has no on-board sounds but the sounds in Logic Pro and Garage Band are amazing. Well worth the $49.95!  You can slice and dice in Logic so that function isn't needed; similar effects can be acheived by simply holding down the pad and releasing it as a sound is modulated.  Also it is very portable - the size of your laptop keyboard.  Great fun!

  • What's a good HD camera to use with Premiere Pro CS4

    I've used Premiere Pro CS4 for a while now and most of the time I don't have any problems, but recently, I've been buying HD cameras, shooting some AVCHD and then having a hell of a time getting them to play nice with Premiere Pro (or WMindows Media Player... or Quicktime... or anything but their crappy bundled software that won't let me edit or anything). My girlfriend says I should give up and buy a Mac and use FCP, but I like Premiere Pro. I'm about to take another camera back to Best Buy and I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion for the easiest camera to use with Premiere Pro.
    In case you're wondering, I've bought a Canon Vixia HF10 and a Samsung HMX-H100 so far and both had every issue I can think of from codec incompatibility to aspect ratios changing to A/V sync being lost to all-out-I-don't-know-WTF-just-happend-errors. I just want a camera that's going to give me a file I can drop straight into Premiere.

    Unless you want a new computer, forget about AVCHD. It requires too much muscle to edit comfortably on anything but the fastest computer.
    What camera is nice, depends on your budget. Formats that are easy to edit are HDV, DVCProHD (P2) and XDCAM. In the consumer range you could look at the Canon HV40 or XH-A1s, in the prosumer range look at the Panasonic AG-HPX170, Canon XH-H1s, JVC GY-ND250 or Sony HVR Z5 or Z7 and all Sony XDCAM cameras, especially the EX1 and EX3. In the professional range look at the Sony PDW-F355 or upward.

  • Video- bzw. Audiolänge Premiere Pro CS6

    Hallo,
    habe folgendes Problem: Wenn ich Video- bzw. Audiodatein in Premiere Pro CS6 importiere, werden sie nur zu einem Bruchteil angezeigt.
    Importiere ich beispielsweise eine Wave-Datei von 5s, wird diese in Premiere auf ca. eine halbe Sekunde gekürzt.
    Wie kann ich das beheben?

    CS6 only uses ONE video card for previews. For exporting or transcoding the video card is not used at all, that is a CPU/memory/disk affair. Accept the fact that all of your Titans do not help at all. You would have been better off with investing in a better CPU, more memory and better disk setup.
