How can I edit Canon EOS 100D/Rebel SL1 MOV in FCP X?
“Hi, all, I was wondering how can I work with Canon EOS 100D/Rebel SL1 H.264 MOV in FCP X. I recently purchased a Canon EOS 100D (also known as EOS Rebel SL1) DSLR camera. I’ve recorded tons of video files about my three-year old son’s daily activities with it. My husband travels on business extensively internationally and I would like to edit the 100D footage in FCP X and upload the files to Google Drive and Dropbox so he can download them to his iPad Air from anywhere she has internet access. The problem is that I cannot get FCP X to handle my 100D videos well, so I believe that I need to convert 100D MOV files to QuickTime before I import them into FCPX. Can anyone kindly recommend a solution to do so? Thanks for your help in advance.”

To make FCP X work smoothly with Canon EOS 100D/Rebel SL1 MOV, you’d better transcode EOS 100D/Rebel SL1 video to Apple ProRes .mov, FCP X’s favorite editing codec previously.
