One of the coolest photos that I've seen.  Really awesome!

I used a 24mm on a full frame for this.  The narrower the lens, the more shots you would have to take.  The one I posted was 12 photos, 30 degree intervals, in a vertical camera position.  If I do another one, I will probably take 2 photos per angle instead of 1, to get better detail in the ground.  I couldn't get the little planet profile because of this in PTGui.  Had to stitch them together in PTGui and then apply the polar coordinate filter in Photoshop instead.  If I had even coverage bellow and above the horizon, I am sure I could have done the whole process in PTGui.

Thanks for posting and explaining how to make these!  I had fun trying this out today!

Cool, good to know.  I'm going to be shooting a music video when it warms up, so I'll be trying the video dual ISO stuff then, assuming I need the extra DR.  Stills are good practice beforehand.

I also use MLV Converter 1.9.2 for video.  I see it has a dual ISO tab, but I've never used it.

Thanks.  I tried the lightroom one first.  I have to look up how to properly use image stacks heh.  Right now I am liking the cr2hdr drag and drop method.  It is very easy.  Have you ever found the need to edit the default conversion parameters to combine the 2 ISOs, or do you convert and not worry about it?

PC.

Yeah, I want to try dual ISO at a concert.  Might allow to bring up some of the background on top of whatever the projector is hitting, or not blow out the lights.  Could be a unique look because I haven't seen HDResque live concert photos before.

Yep, Philly.  The bridge one is from a place called Graffiti Pier.  If you are ever in Philly, I recommend checking it out.  Just do a google search for Graffiti Pier Philadelphia.

I have never heard of FRSP until you linked it just now.  Looks pretty awesome.  I still haven't tried Dual ISO.  That's my next adventure haha.

Sure!  All photos were on a 5d mark III.  The lightning ones were shot with the canon 50mm f/1.2 L, at f/5, iso 100 and 1 sec shutter.  The bridge one was with the 70-200 f/2.8 L II.  That one was at f/11 with whatever auto ETTR picked for ISO and shutter speed.  Everything was with a tripod obviously.

The first two were during a storm last year.  I used the motion detect feature in ML, and left the camera on for about 20 minutes.  These were my two favorite shots that it captured in those 20 minutes.

The 3rd one was a 3-4 hour timelapse using the ML intervalometer with auto ETTR feature.  The exposure was set automatically and accurately with ETTR from day to night.

Hey stevethornton,
I had the same problem too.  I use MLV Converter

Just do what DjJuvan said, turn off those options, and the green pixels go away.  It took me a while to stumble onto that solution myself.

Thanks!

Thank you so much!  I am already brain storming the next one.

This was shot on a 5d MarkIII, mostly at 1080p 24(23.976)fps.  I used Komputerbay 128gig 1050x cards with no problems at all.  (There are 2 clips at 1920x672 60fps.  I got about 5 secs of footage with video preview turned off.  4 secs with preview on.)  For post processing, I used Batchelor to batch convert the RAW files into DNGs, and imported those into After Effects.  From there I used ACR to adjust white balance and lens correction only, and exported as DNXHD into Premiere.  I did not do any color correction past that (although I probably should have haha).

This is my first video and I picked up a camera for the first time in December of last year.  If I did not stumble upon Magic Lantern on the internet, I probably would have never even attempted this project or bought a camera.  Thanks for the amazing free program!
