Working with Canon 5D MarkII H.264 Footage in Final Cut Studio - 5, Not 6

I'm new to this whole posting thing, but I'm hoping I can get some help. I'm just now starting to try to edit video footage from my Canon 5D Mark II in Final Cut, but I do not have FCP6, I have FCP5. I'm starting to realize this may be a problem, as it does not seem to have any sort of 1080 30p setting for video.
So...what I've done so far is to down convert to 720 p30 (I guess) using MPEG Streamclip, and then work with it that way. But I'm losing a lot of nice information, right? (Wrong?)
Obviously, I'm very new to the whole HD thing, so please go easy on me. I'm just hoping that there is some way that I can edit the lovely 1080 30p footage in Final Cut Studio Version 5, and then output a looped 10 minute video via DVD Studio Pro.
Anyone??
I appreciate any guidance.

Strangely, that is just not one of the options that shows up for me - I get the huge list, but no 1080p 30. In fact, no 30p anywhere to be found except for the 720 p30.
I wonder if there is something I can download?
I keep running into posts telling me I have to have version 6 - there MUST be something I can do in 5!! I hope, I hope...

  • WHY FCS WILL NOT WORK WITH CANON XH A1, NOW, EVER, ANYTIME? HELLOOO APPLE?

    Well well. Trillions of dollars in Apple technology and canon ingenuity and yet these two behemoths of electronics and computer commercialism cannot create a simple easy to sue interface for a freaking Canon XH A1 camera. I have read forums, googled "compatibility issues", talked to friends, emailed people, and yet no one has stepped up with any assistance in this matter. What really hacks me off is that after spending thousands of dollars on Apple products, and numerous combinations of Final Cut Express, Pro, Studio, I have spent the better part of two weeks doing fresh installs, plugging fire wire cables in each and every port, trying numerous Canon cameras, and still, here at 633 am after all of this, my wonderfully complex Final Cut Studio now tells me that although it "knows" a camera is connected via fire wire, it does not recognize and will not initialize my camera. Furthermore, earlier this week when it DID recognize my camera, the video imported was forced to create clips which stopped a meaningless in and out points. In addition, the audio drifted from one second, to 1.5 seconds, and so on and so forth. Ladies,gentlemen, scribes, aficionados, and causal observers here this: I am officially fed up with having to work harder at getting my project ready to edit, than I ever did actually editing the project. This is sad, sick, silly and stupid. I don't know what's next blokes. Vegas Pro? Avid? I am just worn out by the numerous fixes, upgrades, work around, plug ins filters and tech experts who still can't tell me why Final Cut Studio will not simply let me import my freaking video. I'm done with this silliness. Goodbye Apple! Goodbye Final Cut! I have better things to do with my life than researching subjects that have more contradictions than a rubics cube. i am going to get some sleep, spend time with my wife, and get some fresh air. I hope my apple implodes, and I'll use the FCP disks for coasters when I am sipping my cold brew. ARGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!

    i jsut came across your posting. I have never replied to a posting before but i am in your case. I use the saem camera you do and had the same problems you are facing with your setup. I spent days and hours trying to figure out my problems. Finaly i read that you could reset the camera. And I did and it worked. Open the view finder on top of the camera and you will see the tiny reset hole. Stick a pin in there for around 15 seconds and that should reset it back to the factory settings. I think you have played with too many settings on the camera and it is jumbled this is waht happend to me. then go into final cut, but do not attatch your camera yet and click on the EASY set up tab and set your importing to match what ever you shot your video at. You cannot 60i video on a 30f setting they have to be the same.
    Alex
    P.S.
    Please look at your manual for reseting your camera, I am just going off memory and it has been two years when I reset mine. Here is some of the video I have shot with my Canon(W/Final Cut) Click onh the HD button if you have a fast connection.

  • MacBook Pro Problem with Final Cut Studio

    For some reason Final Cut Studio will not run on my MacBook Pro 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. It loads then disappear. The only version that worked was 5.0 but felt very slow so im thinking it was using rosetta. After reinstalling OSX hoping that would help. Still that didnt help. I installed 5.1 then used Apple Software Update to download all the update. All update was install but still nothing works. Well if this post seems similiar to someone else post please point me to the right place. any answer will help thanks. I've read the support CPU but didnt see any information on whether it support the Core 2 Duo.

    no reason it shouldn't work, and work very well at that.
    do none of the FCS apps work, or is it just FCP?
    if you have just finished a full reinstall, then for good measure you should run Repair Permissions from /Applications/Utilities/Dissk Utility
    it may also be that the preference files are corrupted (try FCP Rescue http://fcprescue.andersholck.com/ )
    also try the prebinding thing ... see this post by Brian Conner http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3961108&#3961108 or the apple technote http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93984

  • How to get Camera RAW / Photoshop CS5 to work with Canon 100D?

    How to get Camera RAW / Photoshop CS5 to work with Canon 100D? I don't want to by this product again and again...

    In what way is ACR not working in Bridge?  Is there no right-click Open in Camera Raw available from Bridge, or there is, but the ACR version is less than ACR 6.7.1 or what exactly is the issue? 
    Also, if you open Photoshop and do Help / About Plug-ins / Camera Raw, is ACR missing from the list, or if not, what version does it say is installed?
    You might also want to describe what methods you have tried to correct the issue, since saying you've tried what you've seen posted and they didn't work, isn't really much to go on.

  • What version of Elements will work with Canon Print Studio Pro

    What version of Elements will work with Canon Print Studio Pro?

    I tried this step but it did not work. I have a Mac YosemiteOS 10.10.1. I copied to plug in files from Canon Print Studio Pro. Open canon utilities, open print studio pro, open CS4 folder and copied files CNPSPP101.plugin and CNPSPP102.plugin (not there is also a folder called CS5 but it has the fame plugin files)
    I copy these files and then go to Photoshop Elements 13 and paste these files in Support File folder in Plug - ins and also did in folder Optional Plug-ins.
    I then open Photoshop Elements 13 and hit Automation tools but Canon Pro Studio option is not there.
    Can you provide more details on where I might be going wrong.
    I put in a trial version of Elements 12 and have no problem. I just can't find where to purchase Elements 12 so I do not lose it in 30 days. Know where I can  purchase?

  • Intuit's Quicken won't work with Lion.  Installed and am using Quicken Essentials but it's not as convenient.

    Intuit's Quicken won't work with Lion.  Installed and am using Quicken Essentials but it's not as convenient.

    this has been an issue with Quicken for a long time! Quicken was initially a Mac only application and then they got greedy! i beta-tested Quicken for Intuit for years and when they announced they were not going to support it any more the screaming was loud but not heard!
    Quicken Essentials is a crime! i wasn't even asked to beta-test it; probably because they would have gotten an earful!!! it is not essential; it is stupid.... AND, of course, their online version was a disaster. i use Quickbooks Online for business and it works like a charm; i mean it even downloads ignominious PayPal transactions now!
    i am also stupid for not really checking out if it would work with Lion - ALL of my financials are on it. I am going to have to do what @cwiens suggested above and either pull out an old Macbook I have or my well stored original Cube in its original box! thank the fates for the double backup i've always done with Quicken - Time Machine & its own key drive!
    btw, this is an old Microsoft trick - not having older versions of apps work on OS updates so they force you to buy the new versions.

  • My Final Cut Studio Box disc package Icon disc will not load, kicked out by MAcBook...any advice...disc player works nothing wrong with it.

    My Apple Mac Harddrive went for a real bust up about a month before my warenty expired...Apple repaired no problem...I had exstended warrenty...
    but when the computer came back it was not the same...
    I also did not have time untill now to start sorting through the mess, one of the things I am sorting.... is to get my Final Cut Studio Pro 7 up and running...
    I bought the disk set (box) with the lap top, back when I first bought my MacBookPro, everything together ......I loaded the disks package onto the computer back then no problem and have had the disk in a cuboard since then.....
    I tried to reload the package onto my computer but the first disc....the ICON disc just keeps getting kicked out....
    without it I cannot load my Final Cut Package....
    What should I do?

    FWIW, I've had malfunctioning optical drives that could play video DVDs, but not read installation DVDs…or able to read install disks for Apple apps, but not third party apps.
    the disc version (Final Cut Studio Pro7) that was sold as a box set with everything included (motion/color and so on) is not realy supported by the newer Apple's as you now have to buy Final Cut X Online, download and pay for everything seprately.
    It's true that Apple stopped supporting Final Cut Studio applications, but I don't know any reason why they shouldn't install and function with newer OS versions and Macs (as long as a working DVD drive can be connected).

  • How works final cut studio with lion?

    how works final cut studio with lion?

    The thing to take from FCPX is that it isn't an update/upgrade from 7. It's an entirely new editor. As a professional video editor myself for 5 years, I felt just as hesitant as you when I first saw what Apple had done. However, I committed myself to biting the bullet for a little while to get comfortable with the new workflow, and I can vouch for Apple's new move toward this type of setup. It has improved my workflow enough to where I can confidently say I deliver projects, on average, in half the time, with no sacrifice to quality.
    Give it another chance, if you can afford it. With a bit of training, and time into using it, you'll see it's a superior editor to FCP 7
