I might sound stupid asking this question, but I cannot shoot raw video above 1280 by 720 p. When i try to select a higher res, the bottom text line says that it is not possible in the current video mode. I have a lexar 16gb 1066x cf card.
Any help would be very appreciated!!! :D  ???

You won't be able to record 2k with 50D no matter what you do, unfortunately.
To achieve resolution higher than 1584x1008 you have to enter crop mode.

Take a look at this:

The bottom text line is a bit stange, however. Especially after taking into account your CF card - it should handle it more than 720p easily.

And you should know that the r/w speed of your camera was been limited which can not be solved by using a high speed CF card.
