Editing and viewing 4k.

Frankc · Jan 9, 2016

What do you chaps use to edit and view your 4k videos?

Thanks in advance.

Final Cut or Premiere to edit. Will downsample to 1080p if wont be viewed on a 4k capable device. I always shoot in 4k though, gives me more pixels to play with and i almost always pull still frames from video rather than switching between video and camera.

I was about to buy final cut pro.. until I saw the price!! $300 is steep for a playa like me!

One day. I need to master my skills first on iMovie.

Final Cut Pro on a Hackintosh, half the price gives you the same performance. Don't buy an iMac.

Forget the imac, i will stick with mac pro... lol... we all have our preferences, and reasons for them. And yes, i have seen final cut pro running nicely on a hackintosh box. Just another option.

I use FCP on my i7 4770k machine with 32GB RAM and GeForce 980 4GB graphics. Cuts like buttah! [emoji106]

DaVinci Resolve is free, there's a course on Udemy on how to use it.

Most info I got from www.tonymacx86.com . Dont get an Nvidia card for FCPX, ATI Radeon work MUCH better. Use Nvidia for Adobe products, such as Premiere.

I just got FCPX and had a bit of fun messing around with effects and transitions on this clip... I should say this vid was purely for that purpose!!
