EOS R5 Mark II and Final Cut Pro Missing ISO adjustment option

[Jmantn]

I have the latest version of macOS on an M1 Max and I'm running the latest version of Final Cut Pro and I have the latest version of Canon's Final Cut Pro software listed for the R5 Mark II.   I load in 8K RAW clips with and without proxies and rendering is set to Apple ProRes 422 HQ and when I go to the inspector and look in Settings or any other option within the inspector's drop down and while I can see the ISO it was shot at for example there is no option to adjust the ISO for the 8K RAW Clip.

Does anyone know of a work around?

Hi Jmantn,

I'm sorry to hear you're unable to adjust the ISO in your recorded clips. To trouble shoot this issue in Final Cut Pro we would recommend contacting Apple. 

Through Canon support, we are limited on the trouble shooting we can offer on non-Canon software. We only have information on functionality and compatibility on software made by Canon. Canon does not test non-Canon software so we are unable to confirm whether non-Canon software is fully compatible. For trouble shooting the non-Canon software we would recommend contacting the maker of the software.

Thank you Hazel,

I think what makes this confusing is Canon makes two plugins for this I thought, the Final Cut Pro plugin and the ProRes plugin for Final Cut Pro and on top of that Apple’s own documentation lays out if the ability to edit those settings isn’t available to use the plugin from the camera manufacturer as described here:

https://support.apple.com/guide/final-cut-pro/adjust-prores-raw-camera-settings-ver3eb60032c/mac

So maybe I’m still not understanding but if Apple’s documentation points us to the manufacturer’s plug in and the ability isn’t showing would I go to canon since Apple is saying if it’s not there use a plugin which in this case Canon makes?

To clarify when I go to canon support for the R5 Mark II and go to downloads there are Final Cut Pro and ProRes plugins.   They just don’t seem to be working correctly regarding ISO adjustments and no ProRes adjustments are present which seems to me to be an issue with the plugin in that it may need to be modified for that model camera or something.
