hahahahahahaha, I keep asking myself the same thing!

Hi guys! This is my second music video using RAW on my 5DmkIII. I have to say I'm blown away... we aimed for a super 16mm look (no shallow DOF bullshit!) and I think we totally nailed it... the footage straight from the camera already looks great but we used a combination of Resolve+Film convert to push it even further... please let me know what you think!

Thanks at all de dev's in MAGIC LANTERN... you guys rock!!!

I've been thinking about this too (even though my thoughts are a bit more modest!)

what I've been wondering is if it would be possible to use the atomos ninja as a way to have a "real" playback option and some reference footage that I could edit with straightaway (while waiting for all the post workflow necessary with the raw files).

in my mind (if it worked) it would be much like using a video assist when you shoot film: a low res version (often mini dv) of what your shooting just for reference and playback; i'm not bothered with compression issues and I don't need a "clean" HDMI out since I would throw away all that footage anyway... it would be just something practical that I could use for my clients to see what I'm shooting.

would this be possible with the current build of ML raw?

thanks!

Impressive.

Side-note: There looked like there were a couple of major wedgies there.

lol... yes there were (and I had to leave most of them out of the final edit but I kept them for my own personal amusement... loops, that sounded kind of creepy!)

thanks!

Did you find yourself having to dump footage constantly running 2x64G cards? Did you have any down time while you waited on them to dump? I honestly cant afford to buy two 128Gb cards, but may be able to pick up a 64gb here and there...

not really... I dumped everything in the end of the day. 64GB goes a long way if you carefully plan what you need to shoot and stick to it. i wouldn't use RAW for something like doco work though...

Hi, this is my first post here on the ML forum.

This is a commercial I directed and DP'd a few months ago. It was a big risk using the ML raw module but in the end it was worth it! The additional dynamic range and sharpness put this little camera in a league of it's own... I absolutely love it!
