Apple has released a Canon specific workflow package for Final cut pro. 5DtoFCP 1.1 is a workflow solution for the 5D, 7D, and 1D Mark IV. From Apple’ site.
“This unique workflow package allows the user to choose to edit in 1080p, 1080i or straight to standard definition 16×9 25fps. Custom droplets give one click access to compressor that will convert the H264 files into ProRes for editing. The user also has a choice whether to make the clip realtime (i.e. 30fps to 25fps) or timestretch so that one frame in 30fps is one frame in 25fps. This will result in a slowdown of 20% for pin-sharp results.
