FCP X 10.0.6 Follow-up

By Jon Roemer On 29 Oct ’12 · Leave a Comment

I dove right into 10.0.6 with a project I am editing. It works a treat. It is great to be able to selectively paste settings between clips, something sorely missed in earlier versions. The new handling of compound clips will make it easier to use them as building blocks in timelines.

The share window has [...]

FCP X 10.0.6 Update

By Jon Roemer On 23 Oct ’12 · Leave a Comment

While everyone was busy working or busy keeping an eye on new iMacs and iPads Apple pushed out the FCP X update they promised back during NAB. The update is available via the App Store.

For those of us working with the C300, MXF support is now native though it requires third-party plug-ins to take [...]

Aperture 3.4 Corrects 5D Mark III Highlight Issue

By Jon Roemer On 25 Sep ’12 · 1 Comment

Back in April I did a blog post about the Canon 5D Mark III and highlight issues within Aperture. I was seeing anomalies at the extremes of highlight recovery either due to exposure or the presence of highly saturated colors. This affected Canon 5D Mark III raw files but I don’t know if [...]

Canon C300 MXF footage, imported into FCP X, and the re-wrapped *.mov version copied out of the Final Cut Events folder and opened in QuickTime.

Quick & Easy: Batch Canon C300 MXF to MOV via FCP X

By Jon Roemer On 28 Jul ’12 · 1 Comment

In previous posts I covered getting the C300′s MXF files into your computer to begin work within NLE’s but what if you need to quickly get many clips to a client for review? The MXF format is not native to many operating systems and the footage needs to remain within its captured file [...]

Safari Deep Sixes RSS Feeds

By Jon Roemer On 25 Jul ’12 · Leave a Comment

Apple just released the Safari 6.0 update for Lion (10.7).

The good news is that it looks like it does away with the annoying animation whereby new web pages often fly in from the corners of the browser window.

The get-used-to-it news is that the search window is gone, now it is integrated into the [...]

Canon C300: FCP X vs. XF Utility for Backup/Archive

By Jon Roemer On 4 Jul ’12 · Leave a Comment

Canon C300 footage requires that it remain in the same folder structure as the CompactFlash cards it was recorded on in order for it to be accessible to NLEs. You can work right off of a CF card but you are best served backing up the card first so that you have something to work [...]

Mac Prose

By Jon Roemer On 14 Jun ’12 · Leave a Comment

We waited and waited and waited.
Meanwhile our desktops became
Dated and dated and dated.

Rumor had it, it was the end of the line,
But then rumor had it, it would be just in time.
Alas, nothing, nada. A slight speed bump?
So little in fact that “new” would [...]

Canon EOS C300.

The Eagle has Landed

By Jon Roemer On 28 May ’12 · 1 Comment

After four months on order, my Canon C300 has arrived. The C300 is the first of Canon’s line of Cinema EOS cameras – inverting what was the standard with their DSLRs. In this case, creating a camera designed from the ground up to shoot video not stills.

Its form factor is [...]
