Tragic Lantern / Re: 7D Raw Thread

Hi Thoma. I'm using a Transcend 32Gb 1000x card and I am getting continuous recording (till card fills up) at 25P (and 24P) 1728x972, 16:9.

I'm in the the UK so that's perfect for me. Card seems to max out at 73.6mb/s and 25p is 70mb/s. (I do use card warm up, otherwise first file stops). Global draw off while recording, RAW format, haven't tried much MLV yet. Just noticed the option for Double or Single buffer, has always been on Double - don't know if single will improve things?? TL build 8Dec13

It won't shoot continuous at 3:2 aspect, 1728x1152, predicts around 425+ frames at 25P.

Best aspect you will get at 29.97 is 2.20:1 on this/my card.

I haven't had much chance to process these RAW files, just tetsing card so far, so can't comment on pink frames at the moment.

Hi,

I'm using a Transcend 64Gb 1000x UDMA7 card in a 7D and can get continuous RAW recording at 1080 25P, 1728x972 res.

Only testing so far but it seems to be working fine, getting around 80Mb/s, Using Dec 8th build of Tragic Lantern (ML for 7D) and previously 29th Sept build (stable).

Seems good value for money so far...

Ok, answered my own question re: Movie Restart.

Using Dec 8th Build recording h.264 Movie restart is working in limited testing.

Are there still issues with camera freeze/crash if recording gets to 'Card Full'??

Hi Folks,

been following this thread a Long time, all very interesting stuff and huge appreciation for all those who are putting in their time and hard work.

I finally got round to getting a 1000x card, a Transcend 64Gb UDMA7, which is not too much more expensive than a Komputerbay (here in the UK at least) and is less of a 'gamble'. It works well and can record 1080 25P continuous using both 29th Sept and 8th Dec builds (only ones I have tested so far).

I have a question-

I've been using Dec 2012 2.03 Alpha 2 for 7D up till now, and recently tried the 'movie restart' feature, which doesn't appear to work?( thread)

Do any of the TL builds also allow recording to H.264? without crashing, on card end? And working Movie Restart?

Thanks again for all the hard work,

neil

In windows 7 you can hold SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK  on the 'work folder' with your files in and then you can choose to 'open commande window here' which will open the Command dos window (CMD) with the  correct folder open and ready to go - just copy and paste the commands  - bspatch 7d000110.fir 7dbooton.fir booton.bsdiff (right click in command window and choose paste).

can be done in Windows XP with a registry hack too - info on both here
