(I just double checked my footage from my a6300 and indeed it does have the. So if I understand you correctly, CD3 should be able to deal with XAVC-S since it is in the easy-to-use MP4 file wrapper, right? I really appreciate your taking the time to respond so far. I found that video to be VERY helpful as well. Thanks so much for your patience and for the explanation and for the link. That table shows a comparison between the different versions of CDR which may be useful in your decision making. There are no "plug-ins" that make it compatible. Tech support was possibly basing their response on a similar table. I cannot explain why, in this comparison table - it appears that XAVC-S support was introduced with CDR4.

The screenshot I posted about applying LUTs - showed an XAVC-S (MP4) clip from the Sony 6300 in CDR3. Many of their consumer-level cameras, like your A6300, XAVC-S (AVC/H.264 These cameras use an MP4 wrapper which makes them more widely compatible. Sony's pro-level cameras, like the PMW-F55 & F5, record XAVC (AVC/H.264 High 4:2:2 Intra Profile), and use an MXF wrapper. Getting confused when considering cameras, codecs & matters technical is easily accomplished! Here are some free LUTs suitable for s-log from Sony A6300 (and other Sony cameras) - The download link is at the bottom of the page. What you need to do is select the LUT that best suits your needs & your camera clips. Once you have the LUTs required, it's a very simple process to import & apply them in CDR.Įven though this tutorial is not using CDR, it provides some good information on applying LUTs. I've never colour graded s-log footage, so I'm unable to offer any direct experience with that. PDR Ultimate Suite 14 comes with CDR 4 & ADR 6. PDR Ultimate Suite 13 comes with CDR 3 & ADR 5.

Here's the update page for CDR, should you need to install the latest patch. I use those files regularly from one of my 4K Sony cameras, though I don't have the s-log options for shooting.


Both CDR 3 & 4 have no issues with XAVC-S.
