The Way for Editing Canon 5D Mark III MOV footage in FCP 6/7 on Mac
“Running FCP 7.0.3 on Duo Quad Core Mac Pro. Just shot some lovely
stuff with new 5D mark iii and hoping to use FCP log and transfer tool
to bring it in. (Footage is part of a Canon HDSLR-shot project). After
installing, attempted to open files in L&T and after a couple of
minutes of spinning circle action the FCP app crashed.”
The Canon EOS 5D Mark III builds on the performance of the legendary
EOS 5D Mark II, offering improved speed, greater resolution, enhanced
processing power and extended creative options for both stills and

freedom for the most demanding photographers. I bet you still remember
the problem to import Full HD videos from Canon EOS 5D Mark II and

again to Canon EOS 5D3 videos.

Tips:
1. If you are using Final Cut Pro 5 or lower version, ProRes is not
the best format for you. However, you can choose QuickTime Movie
Format > Apple InterMediate Codec(AIC) as output format for editing on
Mac.
2. If you are using FCPX, please make sure that you have installed the
Apple ProRes Codec manually since the FCP X asks users to install it
by themselves.
3. If you would like to edit Canon EOS 7D, 5D Mark II, 5D Mark III, 1D
Mark IV, 60D videos in iMovie 8/9, FCE 4, go to the QuickTime Movie
Format group in step 2 to choose AIC codec. You can also set 1080p
