Editing with multiple resolutions (4K & 1080p) and frame rates (25fps & 60fps)

Hi there!

Im just wondering if anyone can help me with this issue i have with Final Cut 10.3

I am editing my first project and Ive hit a stumbling block! I have a mixture of 4k footage shot on a DJI phantom pro at 60fps and 1080p at 25fps on a Canon 6d.

Im struggling to find the answer about what I should set the project sequence settings at?

Should I have the project set at 1080p/25fps or at 4k 60fps?

Many thanks for your assistance guys and all the best!

1080/25.

A second is always a second in FCPX, so your 60fps will automatically conformed to the other material. BUT, it allows you to create 'native' slow-mo. Same with 4k res: Will automatically resized to 1080, but can be scaled by 200% without loss…
