Camera workflow
Deinterlace and prepare Canon Cinema footage for Final Cut Pro.
The free version limits many processing operations to the first three minutes. Check compatibility and trial limits.
Before you begin
Keep the original card structure when available, then confirm the codec, frame rate, scan type, and editor support before converting.
Current Final Cut Pro support depends on the Canon codec, camera structure, plug-ins, and installed software. Try the original card structure before creating ProRes media.
Do not deinterlace every 1080i source automatically. Keep interlacing when the project and delivery remain interlaced; deinterlace only for a progressive workflow and inspect motion and fine edges. Match resolution and frame rate, then verify picture, audio, and timecode.

Three-step workflow
Deinterlace and prepare Canon Cinema footage for Final Cut Pro.
Add the source
Open LosslessConverter and select Add Files. Add the Canon C300 1080i MXF clips and select the files required for this workflow.
Create editing-ready media
Open Output Format, select the Editing group, and choose ProRes. Select Same as source to retain the source dimensions; choose HD 1080P or HD 720P only when the project deliberately uses that resolution.
Create the current output
Choose an output folder and select Start All. When processing finishes, import the ProRes MOV files into Final Cut Pro and verify field handling, picture, timecode, and audio.
Try it with your own media
