Great work @simulacro, @hjfilmspeed! Really glad you find VisionLog beneficial to your workflow. (And as a non-photographer it's certainly good to see the profile amounts to more than just a bunch of color matrices) 

Are there any plans of releasing something like VisionLOG for Resolve 10? While I do love the ACR output of VisionLOG files, the workflow and length of time it takes to process the DNGs is rather impractical...

We put the hack through its paces over the weekend in the 48 hour film race. It was kind of a gamble to shoot raw for something like this, but I wanted to see if we could turnaround fast enough. Had a couple minor crashes, but it was a pretty good real world test. 

Hey guys, I just wanted to share our film entry for the 48 hour film race. It was truly a great experience and I still can't believe how quickly we were able to achieve this and that we got the film in on time. We used RAWanizer w/ CineForm and I was very pleased with the speed and results.  The camera only crashed a couple times and we ended up losing one shot, but other than that everything performed flawlessly. Hope you guys enjoy it! 

Thank you to everybody that worked so hard to make raw capability a reality on this camera.

Enable H264 Movie mode (!!) and force exposure override (in the first ML tab) - iso 100/200/400 etc works for me.

I had them both on and it still wasn't working.  But then my camera crashed, and I had to remove the battery a few times and now all the ISO settings are working again.

Ok never mind, it looks like ISO 160, 320, 640, etc. are the only values that work in 5x zoom.

Has anyone successfully gotten all the standard ISO values to work? As of now, the only ISO values that alter exposure for me are 160, 320, 640, etc. Flipping between ISO 200, 400, 800 does nothing in LiveView.

I have no idea how you've gotten RAWanizer + CineForm combo to work... My results with that workflow are completely unusable.

It just happened in "Exact FPS" as well. I couldn't tell when it occurred though.



When FPS Override is on, CPU usage is at about 26% with LiveView on, and all overlays disabled. When FPS Override is off, CPU usage is between 28-29%

@evanamorphic: Your actual FPS is on 21.723? Why not put it on exact fps (optimize for) 23.976?

@Viente: welcome to the happy 50D owners club

I'll try optimize for 23.976 for awhile to see if it still occurs. I seem to get more frames when using the other optimize settings, I guess it's a trade off.

I got about 3000 frames at 1920x818 and then my FPS randomly dropped to 21 FPS again while recording. When it happens, my exposure shifts slightly and the buffer goes to *. When I stop recording and go into the menu it looks like this:



It takes 1 or 2 reboots to get back to 23.976 FPS. It only seems to occur in 5x zoom. Other than this little issue and the pink 5x zoom, the camera is performing incredibly well. I can get around 830 frames at 2000x852 before dropping on my Komputerbay x1000. Truly impressive.

I'm getting some very strange results with the 50D and the RAWanizer + CineForm combo. Going from DNG to CineForm RAW works just fine, not sure what's causing this.

Found some time to edit my shots I made earlier this week.

Experimented with a new workflow, I wanted something faster than ACR/Bridge, so I used RAWanizer to convert to CineformRAW 444 (about 10 minutes for 21GB of footage), graded the clips in Davincie Resolve Lite 9 and edited in Premiere CS6.

More details (and download option) on vimeo.

Julian, did you get small squared noise patterns when using that workflow? I tried the RAWanizer + CineForm combo and I got some very unusual results...

Set the following:

ISO:  100-200 (actually the ISO Does not matter so much use whatever ISO you need)
FPS override:  23.988 (Don't use 24 exact, use optimized for low light instead)

Canon Menus:

Set Qualiy to: JPEG Large Only - NO RAW

Settings in C.Fn II: Image

High ISO speed Noise Reduction:  Disable
Auto Lighting Optimizer:  Disable
Highlight Tone Priority:  Disable
Long Exposure Noise Reduction:  OFF

Global Draw:  set it to "LiveView" (Turn off peaking and all other global draw settings)

RAW Video Settings:

Raw Video Resolution:  1600 (it will default to 1592)
Raw Video Ratio:  3:2 or 16:9
Sound:  OFF
Hacked Mode: ON

Shoot something for a while . . . . 1600 resolution & 16:9 ratio is the most stable.

If I shoot at 23.988 (optimize for low light) my camera randomly drops to 22fps while recording.

Just started testing with the May 28th build with the settings menoc listed and a Komputerbay x1000 64gb.  I get fairly steady results at 1592x1062 with an average of 67 MB/s, but for some reason my camera keeps dropping down to 22.331 FPS. My screen changes exposure when it happens and it usually occurs while I'm recording... It seems to be stuck at 22 fps until I reboot the camera.

I also get a "scripts dir missing" message when turning on the camera, not sure if that's related.
