[i]"I want to convert .mov files from my Canon PowerShot SX260 camera to 1080p HD video for editing in FCP. What can I try or which program can help me out?"[/i]

The Canon PowerShot SX260 is a very nice update of the SX230, one of the entry-level cameras from Canon. The 4:3-format screen has returned, the zoom lens and electronics are great quality, and the flash now only pops out when you actually want to use it. The controls are identical and have almost exactly the same layout as last year's cameras. All these made Canon PowerShot SX 260 a nice-to-use camera. Canon PowerShot SX280 is an update of SX260; just like its predecessor, the movie mode includes full 1080p/720p HD video recording with stereo sound and an HDMI output.

The H.264 encoded MOV files perform very well when playing back; but it’s troublesome for FCP and mac users for that FCP does not support Canon PowerShot SX260/SX280 MOV footage natively. In this case, the best workflow is to convert Canon PowerShot SX260/SX280 MOV to ProRes for editing in FCP, hereby you may need this [b]Pavtube HD Converter for Mac[/b]- a powerful [b][url=http://www.pavtube.com/hd-video-converter-mac/]Canon H.264 MOV to FCP converter[/url][/b], which can accomplish this within a few clicks.
