Canon announced EOS M5 which can record full 1080p HD videos in H.264 MP4 format. While enjoying the stunning HD image quality, many folks may encountered many problems, like import it slowly, and couldn't edit videos smoothly, when you attempt to import the MP4 video from Canon EOS M5 to Final Cut Pro X or FCP 7/6 for editing.
