Here is a short test of recording continuous raw video using Canon 600d/T3i...i used FPS override to 12fps and got 1280X720 at 16:9...my SD card is Sony SDHC 94mb/s...i am not sure if this can be used with regular project but i do hope this can overcome the write speed of our slow sd controller on mid range DSLR's...its my humble request to all the senior members of this community to have a look & bring about some discussion on this topic...though the video listed below is merely 12s at length, i did test it for more than 3 minutes...but didn't dare to process it only for testing purpose...

The best I obtained was using anamorphic (2.39) not 16:9 aspect ratio.  The anamorphic crop is your friend on the 600D.
16:9 you get QHD @ 24fps continuous write, which is 25% of 1080p frame.  This is only good for Web and Phone apps. 
2.39, you get 1152x482 @24fps continuous write, which is 80% of 720p anamorphic frame. The up res is very little, and 720p is a very respectable end delivery.

If you have a slow moving master shot, you may get away with 10fps, then you can shoot 1600x670p, which is 83% of a 1080p 16:9 frame. 
Run it through After Effects Time warp, then you can interpolate frames back in to recover to 24 fps. 
This is not perfect but it helps get rich master shots, then you have to use lighting and color grading for the H264 motion shots.

In many ways the 600D provides 80% of what you want in raw, Hope this helps.
