Import and edit all the popular QuickTime formats natively (including Apple ProRes and .mov files captured by Canon 5D and 7D cameras, and QuickTime and .mov files from the JVC ProHD camera range), with full access to clip metadata — no transcoding, rewrapping, or logging and transferring required.

Work with DPX frame sequences as footage in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5. Full control over parameters like black point, bit depth, and log / linear space allow non-destructive changes to be made at any stage of production.
