Thanks for all the feedback. So people definitely are getting the 1080/30fps?

The firmware downgrade means loss of audio though, right? Also, with HacKed Preview, how can you focus or frame if the camera is moving since my HacKed preview petty much means no LiveView?

Two Lexar cards now (1000x/1066x) and I'm only getting in the mid-80's on the benchmark tests. Do you really have to hunt to find a fast card or should most of the quality brands do the trick.

Just testing with this right now and trying to get my setup down and understand where I can use it on a hobbyist level. Thanks for the feedback!

I have a 5DIII v1.2.3 running the last build of ML for this firmware.

I can shoot continuous 24 fps at 1920X1080 but cannot seem to get up to continuous 30. I was using a Lexar 32 GB 1000x card and seeing mid-80's MB for the benchmark test. I stopped at B&H today and purchased a Lexar 64 GB 1066x hoping this would give me the boost I needed to get up to 30 fps. This card show almost identical results in the benchmark.

I have read hours of forum posts and tried turning on and off a number of settings including: Global Draw always off, Hacked preview, Card Warmup, Buffer Fill, Extra hacks - still no success.

Are some 5DIII's not capable to sustained 30 fps? Do I have bad examples of the Lexar cards? (I don't think so from what I've read on the benchmark thread).

Can someone point this rookie in the right direction? Maybe post the settings that will get me there if it isn't a hardware side problem?

Thanks.
