My brothers and sisters in the group asked me why the data taken by the latest Red camera did not have a proxy file, and they did not know how to get it into FCP. Here, I want to say sorry to them first, because the r3D files without proxy files were shot by Red's latest product EPIC, and the R3D files of this machine use a new video encoding. In other words, the data captured by Red EPIC cannot be imported into FCP using my plug-in.
Sorry, brothers and sisters! I was negligent!
I took some time to test it briefly this afternoon. In fact, the solution is very simple. Just download the most popular plug-in from the official website and install it.

Of course, the camera designed by the RED team uses The principle of shooting RAW format is to record dynamic image material. So we also need to download a software that can be fine-tuned later, which is called REDCINE-X PRO. It can basically be used to adjust color temperature, dimming, etc., and can slightly make up for the shortcomings in the early stage.

About the development history of RED
This It is a very magical story. A crazy scientist who is full of passion and wealth leads a team of scientists with the same enthusiasm and begins to realize his own dream. And eventually, when technology becomes possible, their success will go down in history. Originated in 2005, the first RED ONE camera was first shipped in August 2007.
In the world of sunglasses and sportswear brands, JIM JANNARD is the founder and owner of Oakley. He began to realize his ultimate pursuit of making the best cameras in the world.
He and a few leaders started to gradually change the face and pattern of the film industry in a parking warehouse. Just like the concept of a digital SLR camera, the camera designed by the RED team uses the principle of shooting RAW format to record dynamic image material. At that time, the 4K imaging frame could reach up to 30 frames per second. Therefore, after many years of human scientific research efforts, digital movies were finally "born".
About the i principle of RAW
The original meaning of RAW means "unprocessed". The principle is: RAW image is the original data that the CMOS photoreceptor converts the collected light source signal into a digital signal. A RAW file is a file that captures the original information of a digital sensor and records some original data (metadata, such as ISO, shutter speed, aperture value, color temperature, etc.) generated by the camera. RAW can be conceptualized as "original image encoding structure" or more vividly as "digital negative".

Finally, let’s talk about some common sense. If you have done enough preliminary work, you can directly import it using Final Cut Pro’s “Record and Transfer” and start editing. To choose whether to use Apple ProRes 422HQ or Apple ProRes 4444 for encoding, just set the preferences in "Record and Transfer" before importing. But it is worth reminding that the size of the video after being transcoded by Final Cut Pro is 2K, and I have not found a way to set the size so far. If you are doing 4K or other sizes, you can only use REDCINE-X PRO software to coordinate.
However, when using Fcp "Record and Transfer" to import materials using Red's latest plug-in, an error will be reported if the Mac system is in Chinese. If you switch to English, it can be used normally.
In short, brothers and sisters, please try it yourself! I wish you success in your work and good health!
