Having tried some tests with raw recording at high iso, and having amended how I approach it, I had the opportunity to pop down with the camera gear to shoot a quick video.
The Farnham Art Society had opened a 'pop-up' gallery for the second year in a row, and on the day it was closing, I got in to shoot some footage and interview one of the committee members. This gave me a chance to try out the higher ISO settings (800-1600) as well as the Tascam DR-60D audio recorder.
There has been no noise reduction applied to the footage, and you'll also see that I haven't removed the dreaded dots that appear with raw recording.
This was shot using just the Canon 600D, with the 18-55mm kit lens, audio recorded with a phantom-powered RODE lavalier mic, fed into the Tascam DR-60D.
Edited and graded in FCP X and Davinci Resolve 10 Lite.
Very good!
Try to send the footage at 0:46 for developers, please. Here: http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=9564.0
You need to clean your sensor or your lens, there's so much dirt/dust particles in your video. Full screen the video.
@MichaelxBarakat:
The sensor does not need cleaning - as you'll have seen in my text, I said I hadn't removed the dreaded dots from the video. Check out this forum - it's a known issue with raw recording and the 600D, particularly noticeable in the highlight areas.
