If you"ve got a Sony Full Frame Mirrorless Camera like A7R II, the 4K XAVC S format will not be an unfamiliar for you.The only problem usually occurred during the editing process. 4K XAVC S still cannot fully supported by some video editors like FCP X can't ingest MP4 video from Sony A7R II directly. In this article, I will share the Sony A7R II to FCP X workflow with you.
The aptly-named Sony A7R II shares the much-improved ergonomic redesign introduced by its A7 II sibling, as well as presenting a whole host of new features and technology aimed at providing the utmost in image and video quality as well as performance. The Sony A7 II is a more matured, more well-rounded camera and therefore an even more enticing option for those wanting full-frame image quality but not a full-frame DSLR-sized camera. Like the A7S before it, the A7R II is able to capture ultra-high-resolution 4K video (3840 x 2160), however, unlike the "S" model, it can record 4K video internally to the memory card. The A7R II makes use of Sony's higher bitrate XAVC S file format, which supports 4K bitrates up to 100Mbps.
