The plan is to use the speedy FCPX transcoding and then import the ProRes into Premiere which is my favoured editing software. PS - It's not just the timeline in FCPX I don't like

By the way your RX10 clip seems much more compressed in the YouTube video than the D5300 clip, what did you do to it? Flush it down the toilet?

Hacked D5200... Is it just the bitrate change or have they progressed much further since I last looked at it?

Yes exFAT is needed for files larger than 4GB. Weird that the NX1 doesn't format it that way in-camera or that it doesn't span to multiple files! Still, 7 and a half mins of 4K per 4GB isn't bad. On the KineMINI in Cinema DNG that is about 4 seconds

So I tried FCPX in the end and glad I did because it transcodes MJPEG 4K at real-time speed (24fps) to ProRes (various flavours) on my iMac and the quality is perfect. Some quite amazing magic sauce going on with this. Resolve is giving me 7fps and FCPX can even edit / playback MJPEG 4K from the 1D C flawlessly on my Macbook Pro Retina 15" whereas Premiere can't (and has the banding). I won't yet be switching NLE but going to explore Compressor as my transcoding app for the 1D C. The FCPX interface has NO batch export for clips, you can only do them one at a time or bunch them all into one clip on a timeline export... pretty stupid!!

​Good choice. I'll leave the art part up to you rather than lecture on that like certain other members like to do...

Could do with going for 30" for 4K. Any good ones?

​Good to see support trickling out yet further. What spec PC do you use?

​Sounds normal to me, early macbook pro 2013 compared to top of the range new iMac is going to be a lot slower isn't it!!

You can definitely tell a large difference on a desk where viewing distances are tiny. I also enjoy the extra real estate for editing and my OS. Going back to 2.5K feels cramped and much softer. The Mac makes it easier on your eyes with the retina scaling options. I don't recommend reading the web on a 27" 4K display at 1:1.

There's also a 5K version of the Dell http://www.amazon.de/Dell-210-ADRZ-Monitor-Reaktionszeit-schwarz/dp/B00R420SU4/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1421949290&sr=8-5&keywords=P2715Q 5120 x 4096 IPS. Is that a typo!?

Damned impressive post. Cheers!

​Current best matches for you are the Sony A7S, Nikon D750 or 5D Mark III ML. Depending on your definition of easy workflow ML raw on the 5D3 might not work out for you. The D750 is really easy to work with. The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera does have a nice image but it's a very different look to full frame, you might not get on with it. Depends on the lenses you already own or what you plan to buy for it. The lens is half the look of the camera. Consider the GH4 as well because the 4K files make for great 1080p in post, the workflow is as simple as banging in 50% size reductions for the clips.

Fuzzy your posts are unhelpful.

Meanwhile I've seen the 1D X go for as little as $4k new. Something is definitely coming at NAB.

FCPX is a bit too off topic for my liking After all the thread is about Premiere!! Expecting people to learn a whole new NLE because of a fixable problem with banding isn't going to wash so let's get back to the more constructive posts and there have been some great ones in this thread so far. Thanks guys.

This is total bollocks. Thread closed!

I am experiencing a problem with Adobe Premiere which destroys the quality of Canon 1D C footage. It’s a problem which has always been attributed to the camera and others like it – banding with an 8bit codec. But actually, could the software you use to edit material play a role?

It's a possibility yes.

SO LINK TO IT THEN!!

Did the Facebook group guys say where they got it? I have a ton of material shot and articles prepared but don't want to piss off Samsung by advocating the download of dodgy leaked firmware on the blog. Was it officially online at Samsung but then pulled later? There's a trivial bit of difference between the profiles but it's tiny and disappears when I play with the master black level, which has a larger impact.

No source Brian? Or is the source you?!

Digital Ed, thanks for the updates and the link to download the firmware. I am mighty curious as to where it came from. The v1.2 firmware you provide does indeed install and give me the new features on my NX1. However if it is a leak or a beta version you should tell us. I see no difference between Gamma C and Gamma DR, which can't be right. Surely.

I agree with Richard's letter and don't agree that Motion Six should be private correspondence against someone's wishes, it's borderline illegal. Also I don't agree with Pete Winkle whoever the fuck he is... for bringing it to our attention here, on a forum known to support Rich's work at Dog Schidt Optiks and as a mod. Thread closed.

Try 25p instead of 24p.
