Can anyone comment on what is reasonably usable resolution wise on the 550d, say around 10 seconds. I understand that max continuous resolution is 960x540, is this really comparable sharpness and resolution wise to the 1080 h264, would those of you that have used and compared it opt for the 550 RAW over the h264?

I am considering shooting a project in RAW and could probably manage with 10-12 second bursts, what are we looking at roughly, for a 2.35 or 16x9 finish, i was thinking 1200x500 maybe?

I can get 1280x426 for about 40 seconds without any skipped frames. I'm not completely sure which build I have though, it's one of the older ones, MemFixAll iirc.

Another test with RAW video. Shot using kit lens 55-250mm, in 5x zoom mode.

720p in 3:1 ratio, recorded at 23.976 fps until buffer filled up. Utilised Auto ETTR to get the most usable data from RAW.

Thank you everyone who was involved in making RAW happen on the 550D! The video quality is so amazing, my jaw actually dropped when I saw the first previews.

The maximum I can get my 550D to record at RAW is 1280x432 at 22fps. This is not with the most recent build though. I'm actually satisfied with that resolution.

Here are a few of my tests.
