Several apps, including ClipWrap and maybe 5DtoRGB do this change for you when re-wrapping, but it's a stage I usually don't bother with because it's not required since I can do everything inside FCPX. If you import from the AVCHD structure then FCPX (and most other NLEs) see the footage as interlaced not progressive, so you ned to click on the clip in the event browser then in the inspector (cmd+4 to open) in the info tab change it to progressive. Dropbox is terrible at playing HD video so download rather than streaming.I always import from the card and not via USB. The cruise ship clip has a huge amount of fine detail, including a fine wire fence towards the bottom. It is easy to open each movie, place them side by side, stop on a frame and compare. I would appreciate any feedback comparing the different versions. It would be great to get a 2nd opinion on this matter. But for me using Firecoresoft to convert GH4 4K to ProResHQ 1080p for editing/grading may help projects run smoother and faster on my old, slower computer when the final output is 1080p. It does appear however that the Firecoresoft clip has less contrast and slightly less saturated colors. The difference between dropping the Firecoresoft ProRes 1080p or the 4K onto the 1080p timeline and then exporting out to1080p seems very slight and of small significance (comparing ungraded). and the 4k ProResHQ 5DtoRGB along with camera’s native 4K - both dropped onto a FCPX 1080p timeline and exported out to a 1080p. The link below has 3 videos to compare - 4K H.264 straight from camera, the Firecoresoft ProResHQ 1080p exported out of FCPX as 1080p. The file size is enormous and from what I can see, no visual advantage for doing so.įirecoresoft will convert your 4K to ProRes also but you have the option of 1080p unlike 5DtoRGB. Earlier I mentioned that Firecoresoft 4K to ProResHQ 1080P converts were to be avoided but now I think they are OK - I was comparing it to 4K ProResHQ from 5DtoRGB - I had mistakenly assumed that the 5DtoRGB had transcoded the 4K to ProResHQ 1080p and that next to the Firecoresoft it looked inferior which it did but that is because using 5DtoRGB to transcode 4K into ProRes keeps it at 4K. I know quite specific questions, but perhaps someone has tried it or can try some of my regarding you post on May22nd - So here is what I found out about using 5DtoRGB and Firecoresoft Video Converter with GH4 4K clips. Is HDMI still live when connected with the Lumix Link app? In the GH4, can you adjust the settings during filming?Ĭan you see the preview of the picture on the app during the fliming? Now obvioulsy the questions for the GH4 owners: It comes back when you cancel the connettion between GH3 and Lumix link. So I connected a HDIM monitor to have the picture during the recording.īut, when Lumix link is activated, the HDMI picture disappears. Only a freezeframe of the first picture with a text that shows, how long it will record still. To end, you have to stop the recording at the camera.Īnd no adjustment of the settings during the filming.Īlso no live picture in the app during the recording. You have to enter a time how long you want to film in the app previous to the recoording. I can adjust all things via Lumix Link in photo mode.īut when you want to film with the GH3 via Lumix Link and Wifi, you can only start. I worked with the GH3 on a crane recently. I have a few questions to the Wifi function compared to the GH3.
