"Now I'm looking at 4k video edition but Premiere Pro doesn't seem to support video of such resolutions (or whenever I import it it always comes in 1080p). Can I edit JVC GY-LS300 4K MOV videos in Premiere Pro? Or do I have to jump to professional tools like Final Cut Pro?"
4K is a new resolution standard designed for digital cinema and computer graphics. It has following advantages: higher image definition quality, more detailed picture, better fast-action and larger projection surface visibility. Recently, many camcorder manufacturers adopt 4K resolution to their recordings like JVC GY-LS300. Working with 4K has never been easier! Insert an SDHC or SDXC (UHS-I Speed class3) memory card and record hours of 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) material. Recordings are made using the Quicktime (.MOV) file format and are compatible with many popular editing systems. Although users are satisfied with high quality of footage, to filmmakers, it is a painful experience on importing JVC GY-LS300 4K MOV into Premiere Pro or other NLEs for further editing owing to video resolution and codec incompatibility problem.
