Trouble with importing .mov files from Canon 6D into FCP X

In this article, you will know how to import Canon EOS 6D H.264 mov recordings to FCP X on Mac OS X, and edit with best Prores 422 codec.

Canon EOS 6D is the world's smallest and lightest full-frame DSLR. If you're in the market for a full-frame DSLR for ultimate technical quality and super-fast autofocus for action, but don't want to pay extra for (or carry the weight of) the 5D Mark III, the 6D is about 95% of the 5D Mark III for a lot less money. The EOS 6D is built around a new Canon CMOS sensor, which offers a pixel count of 20.2MP. In concert with the DIGIC 5+ processor it offers a standard ISO range of 100-25600, expandable down to 50 and up to 102,400.



The MOV files Canon 6D outputs in encoded by H.264 high-def streams, which is different from QuickTime mov or others. Many traditional nonlinear editing programs on mac do not support H.264 codec directly, such as FCP, iMovie, Adobe premiere and so on. To load Canon 6D H.264 MOV to FCP X, you need to convert them into FCP  preferred video format firstly.

Now come and meet this Canon MOV Converter for Mac. I downloaded the Trial Version of Pavtube and converted some clips taken with Canon 6D .mov. After that, I have successfully import the converted clips to Final Cut X.

This Canon MOV to FCP Converter is not only able to convert organized videos files, but also able to deal with various videos and audios in batch. No need to install third party plug-in, no need to fix the settings manually; just import, choose FCP preset, and click Convert. It's just as simple as that. The software does a good job in editing H.264 .mov files directly in FCP and also easily convert Canon 6D MOV video to iMovie/FCE etc. You can also remux, Trim, cut, split, mix videos, overlays, also add 3D effect to Canon 6D H.264 footages. Now mac 10.8.3 is supported, feel free to have a try!
