Re: Can a G5 Mac import video from modern flash-based camcorders?
This is a good suggestion. I'd like to add a bit of advice though. When you convert, I highly suggest going to a lower resolution like 848x480 over full HD at 1920x1080.

Can a G5 Mac import video from modern flash-based camcorders?
I'm running OX 10.5.8 on a dual 2 GHz G5 (2005). I have Final Cut 5 on this Mac, and I record video with a mini-DV videocam (2006 Canon Elura), feed it from the camera into FCP for editing (through a firewire cable), and then burn the videos onto DVDs with iDVD. This setup works great. Now I need to replace my aging video camera, which uses mini-DV tapes. These mini-DV camcorders are all but extinct now--all the current videocams record to flash or hard drives, not tape. Tape is dead, except on the used market. I'd like to get one of these newer flash-based camcorders, because they have practically no moving parts to malfunction (and it's always the tape drives that break down in the mini-DV camcorders), and they have newer, better optics, but I believe it takes an Intel Mac running FCP 6 or better to directly import video from a flash videocam into Final Cut. But I don't want to give up my trusty old G5, nor buy a newer Intel Mac, plus a newer version of Final Cut. My question is: does anyone know whether there is a way to import flash video from a camcorder into a G5, and then somehow convert it into a form that Final Cut 5 will accept? I think the flash videocams use some compressed video format called .mt. Is there perhaps some standalone app I could use to import and convert .mt video into an Apple codec or something that could then be dropped into Final Cut? Something my old G5 could run? Anybody got any suggestions how I might be able to use a newer flash- based camcorder with this old Mac/Final Cut setup of mine? -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
