C700d,
You are wasting valuable time, (not only yours !!!), asking too much on this forum, instead of testing your camera by yourself.
That's all I've been doing for the last 3 months, although the speed hack slipped me by.
Quote from: IDA_ML on December 28, 2018, 04:29:31 PMYou received tons of valuable information already and if you read it once again very carefully, you will understand how your camera works, what its limitations are and what is doable with it and what not.I would also argue I know what is possible with my camera, hence my posts here, asking for your valuable information in how to achieve it.

There are much more exciting objects to film out there, especially over this time of the year.They were near me at the time and seemed a good example to test for aliasing, which was the main issue apart from the low resolution, I know they are ugly as sin. I will go out with these new settings and film something prettier, that's not too difficult.

I know, but it's easy to say that when you understand and finally have a build and settings that work for you. I am nearing that stage but I won't get there unless I ask questions, usually infuriatingly questions, that are simple to others. As you say time is valuable and sometimes a simple question takes the longest to find the answer. Look, I apologise if I've wasted anyones time but I am short on time and need to get the best results from the camera ASAP. The information given so far has been great I agree, but in my experience with ML, I get so far then another problem arises that stops me, and usually there isn't a quick answer on the forums or through the search (which I always do first, an example being how to install the SD card hack, I had to use a build with it pre-installed), yet sometimes it's quicker to just ask someone in the know and in the now. Yes, annoying, but it helps me quicker and I appriciate it! I will try not to ask anymore "silly" questions as I'm quite happy with the results, my last few posts are simply me running into problems recording in crop mode, with the liveview being difficult to see what is being accurately recorded. - If you can find me anywhere in the forum that explains this accurately, then please link as I am unable to find myself through the search and that would save you time typing. Apart from that, I feel I'm very close. I don't need to know about exposure, framing, focusing etc, I am well aware of how to film. The liveview issue is the only big issue for me right now (touch wood!)
Quote from: IDA_ML on December 28, 2018, 04:29:31 PMGood luck and don't forget to post some stunning videos on the forum!
Thank you! That is my goal! My next goal is to create a video that doesn't make Walter throw up in his mouth!
P.s Thank you for the clarification on the 1800x1008 resolution being changed dfort. To me that is confusing because if our goal is to shoot in crop mode at 2.5k for example (which my current build has a preset for), and then turning "Movie crop mode" on which then reduces the resolution (albiet still high) then what is happening there, it still leaves confusion on how people are shooting in those resolutions without a half accurate liveview. That is another question that I doubt I will be able to find on the forum, and risk others becoming aggrivated. "Movie crop mode and the crop_rec module are two different animals." - This is an example of something I can research on in the forums imo and will do so. So you don't have to answer any questions. Thanks again for your time!
