RAW / BMPCC into FCPX

RAW / BMPCC into FCPX was created by dacloo
Hi!
I'm enjoying shooting stuff with my Blackmagic Pocket Cinema.
When shooting RAW I can't seem to get my footage into FCPX. I'd like to avoid complex round tripping with proxies through Davinci Resolve, and go straight into FCPX to grade my footage.
Is this possible? Eg using a plugin?
Thanks!

Not at the moment, but I can't imagine this will be the case much longer.

I've not used it myself, but take a look at the trial version of CaptureOne:

@dacloo If you don't want to use Resolve for round tripping, your next best bet is to use Resolve to create ProRes masters and then stay in FCPX. If you don't want to use Resolve at all, then the next best tool is After Effects to interpret and render out raw files that you can edit with. Or shoot ProRes. I don't recommend using photo software to process the files because it's not designed for it. Only Resolve deals with the color science properly, allows you to auto sync the audio and push and pull the footage effectively.
If you don't feel like using Resolve, then maybe shooting raw is too much trouble. FCPX can work cinema DNG file from the BMCC but not the compressed files from the BMPC. But it doesn't work well with Cinema DNGs because it does access the raw controls in color correction and doesn't deal with image sequences easily and doesn't deal with the audio automatically. I haven't tried Motion, but you might look into that...
