I am getting corruption on all frames if I record in 1880x940 until card is full.



Joined RAW files through Terminal and processed with GUI Raw2Dng 0.13 in OSX.

Short clips are fine though. Is this normal? Should I just stop the recording manually before card is full next time?

1880x940 @ 73.5MB/s = Continuous
1880x1058 @ 75.7 MB/s = 50 s = 1213 f
1856x1044 @74.3 MB.s = 1:07 s = 1635 f

Incredible speed increase with the hack, - thank you ML team!

Hello all. Noticing improvement from June 19 to June 27 version

June 19 build
1880x940@24p max recording time : 1:30 seconds

June 27 build
1880x940@24p max recording time : 2:33 seconds

Write speed 69.8 MB/sec on Lexmark 1000x 32GB.

Keep up the great work guys!

Okay, a follow-up question, - which of the 1000x cards is better for 5D2?

1) 32GB Komputerbay 1000x
vs
2) 32GB Lexar 1000x

Thanks,

@mgm : I have the SanDisk 90MB/s card (got it a week or so back). It works great, no complaints.

Cool, what's the maximum resolution you get for continuous shooting, and how with how many buffer stars?

Thx

Hi All,

Can you give me advise on buying a card for 5D2 RAW? Should I go for:

1) 32GB SanDisk UDMA7 90MB/s card
or
2) 32GB Lexar 600X 90MB/s card?

I'm not planning to buy the Lexar 1000x card, just want to know which one of these 2 is better.

I am currently running 5D2 with June 06 firmware and I can record about of 45 seconds of 1720x732@24p on an old 8GB SanDisk 60MB/s card.

Thanks,

If the hardware is identical, it means 1DX is capable of a 500Mbit data rate ( 1DC's data rate at 4K ). Even if we got that bitrate at 1080p, it would be a massive feature upgrade.

At US$12,999 plus tax, you'd need roughly 250-300 donations of $50 dollars each to buy a 1DC.

Many 1D/5D/7D owners looking for a real upgrade from 1080p would be willing to donate if you open a special donation fund for this project!

Thanks,

M
