Transfer Panasonic HDC-MDH1 AVCHD 2.7" videos to FCP 6/7

Summary: Read on this article, you can get the hints how to import and edit Panasonic HDC-MDH1 2.7" AVCHD MTS footage with Final Cut Pro 6/7 flawlessly without any issue.  

I purchased Panasonic HDC-MDH1 on 26.3.2012 in Bangalore. This is an exellent professional shoulder mount camera in lowest price, also best for Wedding, Birthday parties, Functions, outdoor shoots etc. Shoots in very lowest light clear picture. No vibration in long zoom shooting. 


I have just shot my first HD wedding video with the MDH1. I am very happy with the video quality with the 2.7" Touchscreen LCD, the camera which records in AVCHD format, I need to edit the   2.7" mts files on Mac with FCP before sharing with my friends and family.

But I find that Panasonic HDC-MDH1's recording AVCHD MTS files are not the preferred format for Final Cut Pro 6/7. Then I think the first step to do is to convert Panasonic mts video to FCP compatible Prores codec for editing with high quality on iMac/MacBook Pro with Mac OS X like Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion and Mavericks 10.9.  Now I will share the easy steps here.

Step 1: Free Download and install Panasonic MTS to FCP Converter to your Mac. It's excellent Panasonic AVCHD Converter which can convert nearly all Panasonic camcorder videos to any formats you need, such as Apple Prores 422 MOV, Apple InterMediate Codec MOV, QuickTime MOV, etc. Then import your 2.7" AVCHD files from HDC-MDH1.

Step 2: Click the format bar, and move mouse cursor to "Final Cut Pro > Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)" as output format .



Tips:

a.  There are other four presets for ProRes: Apple ProRes 422 HQ, Apple ProRes 422 LT, Apple ProRes 422 Proxy and Apple ProRes 4444. Usually the ProRes 422 HQ has better video quality than ProRes 422 and could meet your needs. If you need smaller size, turn to ProRes 422 LT.

b. Click Settings to customize video size, bitrate, frame rate and other specs.

How to import .mov footage taken by Nikon D5300 to Adobe Premiere Pro without rendering? By converting Nikon mov to Premiere friendly format, you can easily get the smooth workflow with D5300 and Premiere Pro on Mac (Mavericks included).

Nikon D5300 makes fantastic quality images and weighs almost nothing, so it's a pleasure to carry it everywhere. Compared to the pro cameras I often haul, the D5300 feels as if it's hollow, which is a very good thing. It can record H.264/MPEG-4 stored as .MOV video files which ensures high quality.

As the H.264 codec 
is highly compressed, so can not easily and directly import and edit Nikon D5300 mov files on Mac with Adobe Premiere Pro. If you want to import  Nikon D5300 MOV video to Premiere Pro on Mac for editing, you are likely to meet all kinds of problems due to the compatibility issue. So how can we import Nikon D5300 MOV footage to Premiere Pro? Here are two solutions:

Method 1.

Right click your MOV footage; rename the .mov files with .mpg extension. This "fools" Adobe Premiere Pro into thinking it's a different codec.

It works in this way; however, your footages didn't turn into another codec so that Premiere Pro may still does something wrong during editing. And if you didn't do a backup before changing the extension, it really ruins your valuable footage.

Besides, here's another problem: what if you have hundreds of clips to be edited? Rename all of them could be such a pain!

So here comes the second way to let Nikon D5300 import to Adobe Premiere Pro smoothly.

Method 2.

To crack the obstacle, the best way is to convert the H.264 MOV from Nikon D5300 to MPEG-2 or MOV which have been designed to work especially well as high-quality, high-performance editing codecs for Premiere Pro. Come and meet this Canon MOV to Premiere Pro Converter which would be a vital part of your workflow. You can order a license directly, or free download a trial version here.

Transcode Nikon D5300 H.264 mov files on Mac to Premiere Pro for editing

Step 1. Connect your Nikon D5300 to Mac with USB cable or use card reader to transfer the MOV files to hard drive disk; do not forget to keep your camcorder on.

Step 2. Run this Nikon D5300 MOV Converter, click the "Add video" button to load individuals mov videos; or click "Add from folder" to load the entire folder.


Step 3. Choose editing program compatible format.

Click the "Profile" option, you will find various video formats sorted by various programs/devices. For Adobe Premiere Pro, it should be "Adobe Premiere > MPEG-2(*.mpg)" or "MOV (AVC)(*.mov)".



Step 3. Click "convert" button to convert Nikon D5300 H.264 MOV for Premiere Pro with this best Canon EOS Video Converter.
