Apple ProRes is one of the most popular and commonly used codecs in professional post-production. The Apple ProRes family of video codecs has made it both possible and affordable to edit full-frame, 10-bit, 4:2:2 high-definition (HD), 2K, 4K, and 5K video sources with multistream performance in Final Cut Pro (X).
The EOS 6D recorded file format is H.264 MOV, this format is supported by many editing software, but it can&#65533;&#65533;t be supported perfectly, take FCP and FCP X for example. So, to import Canon 6D MOV files to Final Cut Pro successfully, i suggest you convert problematic H.264 MOV to ProRes MOV. I ever have problem to import separate MOV into Final Cut Pro, such a headache that I really want to change to AVID or other software. At last I find a third party program called Pavtube HD Video Converter for Mac to help me, now I combine pavtube with FCP to help me finish my job. FLAWLESSLY. I can&#65533;&#65533;t make sure you the original quality, but I can&#65533;&#65533;t see the loss. Get a free trail from below to make sure it helps you too. You are welcome.
