Why does Phantom 3 4K video look horrible in FCP 7/X?



"I just purchased a DJI Phantom 3 Professional camera, when I import the 4K video into FCP X, it looks blurry and pixely. However, when I view the same video out of the folder that it resides in, the video looks amazing. I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong during the import process. Any suggestions?"



The DJI Phantom 3 professional captured 4K video in MP4 or MOV(MPEG-4 AVC/H.264) format, which is not a native editing codec for Final Cut Pro. In addition, the 4K video footage compressed with MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 will still have big file size, it will take a lot of time for Final Cut Pro to render those 4K videos. To ensure a smooth workflow of Phantom 3 4K video with FCP 7/X, it is ideal for you to transcode Phantom 3 4K video to Final Cut Pro best editing codec- Apple Prores 422 codec, a post-production format designed for pristine quality and high-performance Final Cut Pro real-time editing.
