General Help Q&A / Audio settings for the 5D3?
January 14, 2016, 06:13:16 PM
Does anyone know if the same audio settings that are available on the 5D Mk2 will ever be made available for the Mk3?  Thanks.

I would like to shoot some sunrise and/or sunset time-lapse but am unable to find the settings for bulb ramping.  Any clues?

I just upgraded to a 5D Mk3 and now notice latency when monitoring via my SmallHD DP4.  This never occurred with my 5D Mk2.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might eliminate or at least reduce this latency?

I just bought a 5D Mkiii and downloaded the latest ML version for it but when I go to the Audio settings screen all that I have is Speaker Volume and Beeps...nothing else.  There was a whole page of functions on my 5D Mkii and now nothing with the Mkiii, where did they go?

I am using a Juicedlink pre-amp with my 5D Mk2 and don't have a great deal of experience in the audio realm and would really appreciate some suggestions on settings. I currently have the analog gain (in ML) at 29 and both L & R digital gains at 0.  My meters are flashing green and peaking about halfway across the screen.  The sound I'm getting is pretty clean but on the quiet side.  Per instructions from JuicedLInk I have the audio settings in the Canon menu set to manual with the gain there set to one click up from zero.  This ensures that all the control/amplification is being handled by the JuicedLInk.  Again, any input (pardon the pun) would be great!

Maybe I'm wrong but I seem to be just burning through batteries in very short order when running the latest version on my 5D Mk2.  Any thoughts on that or what I might do to get better battery life?  I was just in my office fiddling with some settings for a shoot in the morning and have already used up about half of the installed battery.  And this was just a few minutes use!  Any advice is appreciated.
Manual mode
Stabilization off
External monitor (Small HD DP4)
Fresh battery (either Canon or ProMaster)

I am attempting to record a time-lapse of puffy white clouds in a bright blue sky.  Yet when I engage the FPS override the image is all blown out with no detail in the clouds and I am unable to adjust exposure for this light.  I have FPS override set to Exact match as the other settings (hi jello, low jello and low light) didn't seem to apply.  What am I doing wrong?

For the life of me I can't seem to figure out the settings to get the proper screen size on the Mk2/DP4 so that I am viewing the entire shot.  The primary issue is that the top of the image is being cut off and then when I play back things that weren't visible before suddenly are.  I have the DP4 set to C-DSLR and I think that I've cycled through all the settings in ML but I must be missing something.  I also seem to recall a "SmallHD" output setting in a previous version of the ML software but can't find that now.

I have followed all the instructions to the letter:

- Formatted card in camera
- Installed Canon firmware 2.1.2

But then the instructions say to unzip the contents of the ML 2.3 folder directly to the root of my card.  Yet when I download the ML 2.3 file it just creates a folder, not a zip file, on the hard drive on my Mac.  I then attempted to place the folder itself onto my CF card in its entirety > installed the card > ran the firmware update and yet never got the green confirmation screen.

I also copied and pasted each of the various files within the ML 2.3 folder onto the root directory of the card and that didn't work either.

Obviously I'm doing something wrong.  Could this be some sort of Mac issue?  I got the previous version to run without issue.
