You should be fine without transcoding. The Canon h.264 files cut like butter.

Looking for suggestions on editing workflow processing for a recent shoot.
We shot with a Canon Mark III in H.264 (1080, 24p), which is a compressed format and not normally an editing format. And separate audio. We have been using FCP 7; but wanting to try Premire CC 2014. How should I prepare for editing? Should I transcode (and to what format?), and then match the audio in a sequence? Should I use Plural Eyes? (I have a license in FC. Would I need a new lic?) Should I then output a file so the audio is baked in? Thanks for your help.
Don't transcode unless your system is really slow. I was cutting DSLR footage in CS5 on mac mini 4 years ago, so you should be fine.
Pluraleyes is now a standalone application, so you'll need a new lic.
I don't think it's necessary. unless you have horrible media management. Traditionally, you sync the audio and video, and create a merged clip. This creates a new file with the video and synced audio.

Premiere with the built in audio synchronisation function.
Put audio and video in the same bin, select them, right click and choose "create multicamera source sequence". Then choose to sync by audio and select "camera 1" if you are working with dual system sound. [strypesinpost.com] ![]() www.strypesinpost.com
