Best Workflow for Editing DJI Phantom 4 4K in Premiere Pro


Recently, DJI has announced its latest drone the Phantom 4. Compared with its predecessor DJI Phantom 3, it has a giant leap in various aspects. After recording some stunning 4K footage by DJI Phantom 4, chances are you want to edit these 4K videos in Premiere Pro so as to make them more stylish, before uploading to YouTube or posting on Facebook. However, here comes the problem, the recorded MOV/MP4 files are compressed using the h.264 codec, which is final delivery codec and it is not one you want to use for editing. On this circumstance, if you are stick to editing Phantom 4K MP4/MOV videos in Premiere Pro, you'd better convert them to a more editing-friendly format for Premiere Pro like MOV/MPEG-2.


Therefore, you are recommended to transcode DJI Phantom 4K to a more compatible and less hardware extensive format. Here, you can achieve that with Dimo Video Converter Ultimate for Mac, which helps to directly encode DJI Phantom 3/4 4K H.264 to Adobe Premiere Pro CC specially optimized MOV/MPEG-2 editing codec with all the compatible editing settings such as video codec, resolution, bit rate, frame rate and audio codec, bit rate, etc.
