About File-Based Media

Historically, video footage has been recorded on videotape. As digital acquisition quickly replaces analog technology, camcorders are starting to record footage as files on non-tape-based media such as hard disks, solid-state cards, and optical discs. For convenience in terminology usage, non-tape-based media are referred to as file-based media in this manual. Because of their nonlinear nature, file-based media provide clear advantages over tape-based media:

åYou can log clips while ingesting others at the same time. This is impossible using tape.

åFile-based clips are defined at the time of recording, so it’s easy to review footage. With tape, you have to define clips manually by setting In and Out points.

åNo cueing or pre-roll time is necessary for viewing and ingesting footage.

åYou can mount multiple volumes at the same time. With tape, you can only use one at a time.

Today, some common file-based media formats include:

åDVCPRO HD and AVC-Intra (solid-state Panasonic P2 card)

åAVCHD (hard disk, miniDVD, Secure Digital card, and memory stick)

åSony XDCAM, XDCAM HD (optical disc), XDCAM EX (SxS memory card)

åSony Video Disk Unit devices (hard disk)

About the Log and Transfer Window

Final Cut Pro can transfer file-based media to your computer using the Log and Transfer window. You can then edit the resulting media files just as you would edit media files in any other format.

The Log and Transfer window is organized into four areas:

åBrowse: Provides an overview of all mounted media volumes and the clips contained within them.

åPreview: Allows you to view footage, set In and Out points, and add clips to the Transfer Queue.

åLogging: Use this area to add descriptive information about clips before ingesting. You can also click the Import Settings button in this area to select which video and audio channels are ingested with each clip.

åTransfer Queue: Shows a status list of clips currently queued for ingest.

6 specifications

The Apple iPhone 6, released in September 2014, marked a significant evolution in Apple's smartphone lineup. This model introduced a larger screen and a sleeker design, setting the stage for future devices in the iPhone series.

One of the most notable features of the iPhone 6 was its display. With a 4.7-inch Retina HD screen, the iPhone 6 offered a resolution of 1334 x 750 pixels, delivering vibrant colors and sharp images. This screen size was a departure from previous models, appealing to users who favored larger displays for better viewing experiences, whether for gaming, watching videos, or browsing the web.

The design of the iPhone 6 was another highlight. It featured a slim, curved aluminum body that not only made it more aesthetically pleasing but also improved its ergonomics. Weighing just 129 grams, the phone was light yet robust. The placement of volume buttons, the power button, and the headphone jack was thoughtfully designed to enhance usability.

Under the hood, the iPhone 6 was powered by the A8 chip, a 64-bit dual-core processor that offered impressive performance and energy efficiency. Coupled with the M8 motion coprocessor, the device could effectively handle demanding apps and services while optimizing battery life, providing users with a smooth experience throughout the day.

The camera capabilities of the iPhone 6 were also advanced for its time. It featured an 8-megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilization and a f/2.2 aperture, allowing for clearer low-light photography. The front-facing camera was improved as well, offering a 1.2-megapixel resolution and support for 720p HD video, making it great for selfies and video calls.

Connectivity options included LTE support, enabling faster download speeds, and Wi-Fi calling, which allowed users to make calls over Wi-Fi networks, enhancing communication in areas with poor cellular coverage. The iPhone 6 also introduced the Apple Pay feature, allowing users to make secure transactions using their devices.

In terms of software, the iPhone 6 originally came with iOS 8, which boasted new features such as HealthKit and HomeKit, further integrating technology into daily life. Regular software updates ensured that users could enjoy the latest features and security enhancements well into the device's lifecycle.

Overall, the iPhone 6 distinguished itself with a combination of innovative design, powerful performance, and a user-friendly experience, solidifying Apple's position in the smartphone market and paving the way for future iterations in the iPhone lineup.
