Maybe it's all my fault and I am to dumb.

I noticed that all ML RAW footage was "to dark" compared to h264 video and photo RAW with same exposure settings.
I process RAW via Adobe Camera RAW with standard curve. (maybe this curve is the problem)
I think the Adobe Standard Curve is compareable with the Canon Picture Profiles.
Of course, each curve looks different, but they shouldn't result in a completely different exposure.

When i speak about 2/3 EV underexposure, I mean there is a overall shift about a 2/3-stop.
I measured it via a graycard, histogramm, and my eyes . Not scientific!

Here is a link with 2 pictures. Tomorrow i will do a better test.

OK, there is different ISO for photo and video mode. Video uses lower ISO.

But why is the ML RAW footage also underexposed by 2/3 EV compared to the H264 video?
I tested all picture profiles with same exposure setting as the RAW video.
Both is video mode, right?

Also RAW-Histogram and RAW-Zebra show some overexposure/clipping. The final raw footage isn't overexposed.

Hello everybody!
There is something confusing me about ML RAW video, and I don't know if its a known problem or a 70D issue.
The RAW video footage is always underexposed by 2/3 EV compared to the RAW.CR2-file.
When I press the shutter after making a raw video, with the exact same settings,
and I compare a DNG-file from the video with the CR2-file from the picture, than they have not the same exposure.

I know that ML raw is only working with ISO 100, 200, 400..

After some tests, I know that shutter-speed and aperture are not changing.
Aperture would change DOF and vignette. Shutter would result in flickering.

So I made a test with ISO100, aperture 22 (maximum) and shutter at 1/4000. It's not possible to get a darker picture in video mode.
And... the same... the ML raw dng-file is underexposed by 2/3 EV compared to the RAW.CR2-file.

How is it possible? Does ML RAW works with < 100 ISO ? Or is it a bug?
