iPhone 6S 4K to Avid MC - Load and Transfer iPhone 4K to 1080p editing in Avid Media Composer

If you need to import iPhone 6S 4K videos to Avid Media Composer (MC 8/7/6/5) for editing, this is the right guide for you. Keep on to learn more details.

The iPhone 6s supports a new 4K video format that lets you record videos in a higher resolution than the 1080P HD you are used to recording on your iPhone. Using the iPhone 6s 4K video option will fill up your iPhone fast, with roughly 375MB per minute you record. If you own the 16GB iPhone 6s you may not want to use this option.

Read here which is how you can turn on 4K recording on your iPhone 6s. If you do not take these steps you will only record in 1080P 30 frames per second.

I like to edit iPhone video using Avid Media Composer, but there's actually no way to edit a 4K project natively with Avid. If you need to upload to YouTube, Vimeo or other services, you will need to verify that you can upload at 4K resolution. Some apps and services only support 1080P uploads.

So, change iPhone 6S 4K to 1080p becomes a must. How to make it true? Any ideas ?
