Summary: Follow the article below you can get the full guide on importing Nikon 1 V2/D5100/D3100 1080p MOV to Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 for smooth editing without issues.
Nikon, in their infinite wisdom, decided .mov is the standart for DSLR video. Do you have some DSLR camcorders from Nikon like D800, D5100 or the Nikon 1 series like Nikon 1 V2? With these camcorders, it's great for us to take photos and record videos when we travel.
While, as mentioned above, Nikon 1 V2/D5100/D3100 support full HD 1080p videos recording, and recorded video format is MOV with H.264 codec. Nikon 1 V2/D5100/D3100 video format is good to record videos but is not easy to use in editing software, like Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 on Mac or Windows. Premiere Pro CS6 supported best video format is MPEG-2, so it's a good choice to convert Nikon 1 V2/D5100/D3100 1080p MOV to MPG before importing Nikon MOV into Premiere Pro CS6.
