600D analog audio gain can be controlled by two values - Mic boost and Analog gain.
I read that Mic boost is better that Analog gain in terms of quality.

In current version of ML arrow shortcuts control Analog gain value only.
It will be much more usefull to control both Analog gain and Mic boost.

Possible values:
- Analog gain -12, -3, 0, +6, +15, +24, +33, +35
- Mic boost 0, +5, +10, +15, +20, +25, +30

So, from lowest gain to highest, it will switch like that:

• A 0, M 0 (Analog gain 0, Mic boost 0)
• A 0, M +5
• A 0, M+10
• ... etc ...
• A 0, M +30
• A +6, M +30
• ... etc ...
• A +35, M +30.

BTW, negative analog gain is completely useless (on 600D at least) - http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=4722

Hello!
First of all - thanks for Interframe script! (v.051) It works great and results are superb! I was really impressed of how easy to use it.

I have some questions:

1) Why it forced to compress luma range from 0-255 to 16-235? Is it ok? I think that full range can store more image information than with 'gray blacks and gray whites'.

2) Should I update bundled "enfuse" with the newer one from official site of this tool?

3) How to make this script to work without need of manual renaming source video to "RAW.MOV" and make batch conversions?

4) How to make it multithreaded? (It uses only one thread and works slow)

p.s. who had made this script? He deserves many thanks!

Dear developers.

It will be nice to have 4:3 cropmark in ML. This aspect ratio is still in TV production.

I was disappointed with the lack of 4:3 cropmark - and the worst for me - I can't find this cropmark anywhere.

Thank you.

Is it possible to implement timecode feature like in 5DmkIII?

Hello!
We all know that the best ISOs with minimum of noise is 160, 320, 640, 1250 and 2500.
Why ML don't offer "low-noise" ISO 5000 and 10000 when toggling ISO? It is possible to set such ISOs manually but it takes time.

Hello!

Suggestion from http://vk.com/onichan:

Push-button for AutoISO just like AutoWB.

Will be handy when it needs to adjust expo as fast as possible without touching aperture and shutter.

As I see in this thread Limits be gone - it is possible to patch MOV container in-camera.

Patching MOV will be great with "FPS override" - so it may be possible to patch container of recorded file to make it's FPS same as "FPS override" value when it was recorded.

This feature's goal is smooth rack focus velocity for more organic look.

Current rack focus velocity is linear so transition it makes is not smooth.

But focus transition can be smooth if focus speed will vary – fast at start and slowing down as rack focus reaches its end point.

It can be achieved by adjusting "step size" over time – starting with biggest step size and slowing down to smallest step size as it reaches end point.

I know that current rack focus implementation don't know where it's end point - it simply changes focus defined number of steps. Is it possible to have rack focus which is based on memorized focus distance?

Hello!

Canon 600D

Is it possible to make digital zoom 3x<->1x switchable while recording?
