EOS C70 Locating RAW files on SD card and exporting them to XF Utility

freddie00 — Thu, 10 Aug 2023 12:43:09 GMT

Hello,

I have taken some footage on the c70 using the raw lt setting. I am not sure where it lives on the SD card. I can view the the footage when the sd is in camera, naturally, but when I connect to computer and open XF utility, I see only my non-raw footage. The question is simple, where are the files and how do I get them on my computer? Please and thank you friends.

Fred

What computer and software are you using to work with the RAW footage? Personally I use Final Cut Pro along with Canon's Cinema RAW Lite Plugin.

On the media cards, the RAW files (.CRM extension) are found in /CRM/REEL_NNN/ where NNN is a three digit value.

I hadn't made it that far yet but I suppose I was going to try premiere pro. It appears the old XF utility doesn't recognize raw so what to you do to export just copy/ paste the whole directory on the SD card to your computer?

Yes, I typically duplicate the entire card's contents to my computer (external drive) which is also then backed up to a separate drive.

I am still dealing with Adobe on why it is not recognizing the CRM files (raw footage) in the directory I've copied to my device. I realize you are using a different application any chance you've worked with premiere? Their forum/ tech supyis not so helpful. I think I'll make another post here soliciting responses from Canon users that use premiere if you don't have experience with that as the Adobe community is not really there.
