I did watch power consumption using a Wemo insight switch. I expect that other NLEs including FCP will also include support by enhancements to their import and export filters.Īs I mention, the MacPro is quiet. As a result some reds and greens are a little less vibrant in the edited footage. He thought that the next release of Sony Vegas would support it. We compared the original files from the camera with the edited footage and I did notice some colour degradation – and Sony’s Karol Warminiec explained that the extended x.v colour space (also called triluminous) wasn’t preserved in any software editor. Worth noting that the MacPro does have some limitations for 4K output – only two of three outputs can be 60p. The TV and MacPro synced resolutions automatically – although the desktop is very small at 4K, even on a 65” set.
#2013 MAC PRO FOR VIDEO EDITING FULL#
I took the MacPro to the Sony store to see the footage at full resolution. Sony’s 4K TVs can display 4K through HDMI, but not from a file on USB. Neat! The 1440 resolution is nearly enough to enjoy the 2180 footage. After connecting, command-F2 to switch the display between the two systems on the iMac monitor. I was able to connect my 27” iMac (2560×1440) as a monitor using target display mode and a mini-display port to mini-display port cable (hard to find, but it’s available from amazon.ca and canada computers in Toronto). I contacted Sharp’s media relations team, but was not able to borrow a 4K monitor. So my apologies for a video presentation that’s a little less visual than average. It is however, hard to review a computer with video. What you cannot appreciate until you see it is how sleek and well designed this computer is. Apple Canada graciously loaned me a well-equipped Mac Pro (late 2013) to use while editing the review of the Sony 4K FDR-AX1.Īfter the first few days of shooting with the AX1, it was obvious to me that although my iMac (late 2009) could handle the 4K video – it was with lots of dropped frames and lots of waiting.
