Hedge has recently released EditReady 22.3 with added support for Canon’s compressed RAW format and ARRI’s flagship Super 35 mm camera, the ALEXA 35. The update is available now and is free for all existing users. EditReady is an increasingly popular transcoding solution developed by Hedge. It allows users to convert original footage from a variety of different camera models into more manageable, edit-friendly files. Just a few months ago, EditReady 22.2 brought support for Sony Uncompressed RAW and X-OCN formats, along with the new Color Conversion panel. Now, the company is introducing EditReady 22.3. The latest version of the software further expands the list of supported file types. Indeed, it embraces the popular Canon Cinema RAW Light format as well as the long-awaited ARRI ALEXA 35. Let’s take a closer look. ARRI ALEXA 35.

This can be found on a vast range of Canon products, going from high-end cinema models (such as the C500 Mark II, C300 Mark III, and C200) to the 8K-capable EOS R5 C mirrorless camera. EditReady users can now transcode this RAW data into a mezzanine file format, such as ProRes. This enables better handling of the footage during the editing process. According to Hedge, the software makes use of Canon’s own color science to provide an accurate conversion. Canon EOS C200. Image credit:...
