Supported video formats

Work with virtually any video format thanks to native editing support for ARRIRAW, AVCCAM, AVCHD, AVC-Intra, HD 50, Canon and Nikon DSLR cameras, Canon XF and Cinema EOS C300 cameras, DPX, DV, HDV,  JVC ProHD, Panasonic P2, RED R3D®, Sony XDCAM, XDCAM EX, and XDCAM HD. Add uncompressed SD and HD acquisition with a choice of hardware cards from third-party vendors such as AJA, Blackmagic Design, and Matrox. Native editing means you'll enjoy a faster workflow from capture to edit, while retaining the quality of your source material.

Native ARRIRAW support

Import raw footage from ARRI Alexa cameras without transcoding. Native support means you won't waste valuable production time transcoding or rewrapping files, and you'll always have access to the original file's pristine quality.

Native editing of QuickTime formats

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.

Take advantage of a truly native, color-rich, 5K tapeless workflow to harness the full potential of high-resolution raw digital cinematography. Work natively with footage from RED ONE®, RED EPIC®, and RED Scarlet-X cameras with support for RED Rocket and Mysterium X®, as well as Color Science and Firmware RED camera advances. Get full parameter control and RMD file import and edit. Native support for RED R3D files up to 5K in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects®, and Encore software allows R3D files to be dropped straight onto the timeline without transcoding or rewrapping.
