Cineform response to Final Cut Studio?

[Roberto B]

cineform option to apple?

[Gordon Prince]

Yes, PC side please.

[Tom Lowe]

Cineform's been doing this for a while already, I believe.

It's cool that RED is working closely with Mac, but I hope they don't neglect PC editing. The bottom line is, I have never owned a Mac and I never will. I'm a PC guy, and for most of us OS is like Sunni vs Shiite. Aint no way I'm switching, especially after all those f*cking Mac ads dissing PC users! hehe.

I second that.

"iRed" is giving me the chills :cold:

[Tom Lowe]

BTW, I haven't been following the whole MAC/REDCODE thing very closely. Is Final Cut allowing actual native support for REDCODE files, or do you have to convert the REDCODE files into some type of intermediate? I realize you will probably have to do your RAW conversion first, before it will work in any NLE.

I think it will have native support for redcode RGB, though not immediately available.

Same here. ;-)

Eight years ago, I thought exactly the same way. At the risk of starting a PC/Mac war, are you saying those ads are preventing you from buying a Mac? Rather lame excuse, no?

Anyway, it won't hurt to try Mac, you might actually come to like "us".

Get the tools that work best for you and if you plan on using red it seems that FCP is the way to go. You can install windows on your intel mac and edit FCP and do whatever else in Windows. I was the same way until I got a internship editing on FCP.
