"Edited versus raw footage?"
Love you, too
I was very happy to find out my iphone shoots great quality 4K HD video but now very annoyed to find out I cannot edit the files nice they are .mov files. Right now I'm trying to work on a hottub video that I filmed from two camera's. Normally I would splice together the 2 different angles to give the viewer a more professional viewing experience.
If I can't find a way to convert the .mov file to be able to edit it (which so far is driving me insane) would anyone still enjoy seeing fully unedited, uncut HD video?
(On a side note my store will likely not be up in about a year from now. I know that's a ways off but still wanted to mention it for anyone who is interested in my more explicit and nude videos because those will be removed sooner than the others. I will mention it once more before I remove the videos for good but don't worry, I wont be spamming the forum begging you guys to buy my videos before they are "gone forever" and then put them back up after a month.)

I'm really sorry to hear that, as I've bought a number of clips from you over the years, either on here or C4S.
Hope things are okay with you.
Although I have only purchased specific clips from your store, regarding my kinks, I could have cared less if they were edited or raw. You are just wonderful and that's all I'm paying to see.

And you have the nerve to call yourself a WAM producer?

FWIW most of my new sales now come from unedited videos. (Although the edits slowly catch up over time.)
Case in point: Just posted a thread about a new edited video, zero response so far.

Hey Leila, WinFF will convert your .mov files to any type you like. See my post about it here: https://umd.net/forums/help-video-playback-issues#postid_604199 It's a bit off point but the bitrate stuff is important and hopefully the screenshots are helpful.
Raw sounds perfectly great! Sad to hear of your departure, hope all is well!
America belongs to its true people
Raw is fine with me as well, while edits are great too. Raw won't stop me from buying good videos. 
Your other problem might be the file sizes of 4K. I shoot 4K in camera (for versatility of footage in editing) but the rendered files are way too large for the UMD download store so I convert them all to 1080HD MP4 for release.
Bringing pleasure to literally tens of people!
You have to draw a distinction between "unedited" and "raw". You generally can't put raw format video on anyone's distribution system. It's way too big. It exists so you have the maximum amount of pixels to work with in editing, because a lot of processing works better and happens faster when it can work with redundant information. (saves having to UNcompress and then REcompress every frame)
On a distribution system, "raw" really means unedited. Virtually all mobile devices and modern video cards have dedicated processing chips that can unpack MP4 at lightning speed, so you always want to distribute in that format to provide the least hassle for your customers. MOV is a bullshit prorpietary format that is completely obsolete now. It won't even play on a lot of platforms without installing QuickTime, which isn't even available for every device and OS.
If you want to offer unedited video, just run it thru Handbrake first. Depending on the exact internal file structure your camera generates, you may have to install QT or QT Pro ($35 last time I checked) on your rendering computer so Handbrake can unlock the format, but then it should process it with no problems.

Sorry I didn't understand the question completely, but yeah... What Soundguy says.
Even my "unedited" clips usually get run through Adobe Premiere so I can add title cards, adjust colors and brightness, and cut out "dead air," but in a pinch (say, for customers who wants footage RIGHT AWAY), I can take the massive 7.5GB MTS files from my cameras and run them through Handbrake to get easy-to-use MP4s in no time.
