DSLR video converted for FCR X
I have read many answers to using DSLR video for FCP x. Many say the video must first be converted to ProRes 422 before importing and many say you don't have to convert, and again many say this can be done in house (so to speak) via compressor e.g.
- Launch Compressor
- In the Settings window type “Prores” into the search bar
- Right click on Apple ProRes 422 (LT) and click “Save as Droplet”
- Save the droplet to your desktop (or another desired location) and leave the destination as “Source”
I am using a canon 6d and would like to know for sure what the best/correct way to import my video footage for the best editing on FCP x
