Panasonic Lumix GH5 to iMovie workflow

"Hello, I have been editing with iMovie 9 on my 2014 iMac running OS 10.10 for years. It's stable and works like a charm. I recently updated to High Sierra and downloaded the update to iMovie. What a mess! iMovie is glitchy and I can't get my Panasonic Lumix GH5 4K H.265/HEVC footage importing to it. I've been doing lots of reading and others are having the same issues with macOS High Sierra. Does anyone know if it's possible to go through this issue?"

The LUMIX GH5 is built like a tank to withstand even heavy use out in the field. It is freezeproof down to -10-degrees in addition to splash / dustproof construction thanks to weather sealing on every joint, dial, and button. A magnesium alloy full die-cast armor frame makes the body lightweight yet durable while bringing ruggedness to the compact size. This camera can go everywhere you can. The LUMIX GH5 records silky smooth 4K 60p/50p (QFHD 4K: 3840 x 2160 / MOV or MP4) video.

If for any reason you are unable to deal with Lumix GH5 4K MP4 footage in iMovie, you are suggested converting the footage to iMovie native format first. Here's a guide telling you how to do this.
