Hello!

Just wondering if it is possible to have the intervelometer module only activate between certain hours, on certain days of the week?

I was looking at this thread: http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=10886.0  but it says the script listed wouldn't run.

Any ideas of where I should look?

Cheers!

Hey guys,

I'm going to purchase a camera as a backup to my main 6D. I'm going to stick to Canon for obvious reasons, but I'm just deciding what model to go with...

Essentially I'm just after decent image quality, and a really high buffer/write speed. I'd love to be able to take 2-3 frames per second, and shoot indefinitely. Ideally with full RAWs, but m-raw would also work.

I checked the raw video chart at http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=6215.0 and it lists the buffer sizes.. but honestly I'm not sure what the numbers mean?

Anyway current options are a 7D, 50D, 5Dc, or I might even be able to stretch to a 5D2 (but I'd prefer not to).

Does anyone have an idea if any of those cameras are capable of a constant 2-3fps?

Hey guys,

I've been trying to use RAW video on my 6D. I dropped it down to 2.5fps, and used a shutter of 1/3.3  The ISO was set to 1250, which should be fine..

But I've got horrific noise! See: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jm30doom7kgncjk/M000142.jpg

Any ideas what's happening?

Hey guys,

I'm trying to use the magic lantern overlay in Live view mode, whilst having the Canon spirit level showing. However I can only have one or the other.. is there any way I could have both showing at the same time?

I'm trying to use it for hyperlapsing, and both features at once would make the job 100x easier.

I'm using a 6D btw!

Hey,

I'm wondering if it's possible to implement a new mode for timelapse shooting. As you know, sunsets/sunrises have extreme exposure changes. The easiest way to shoot them right now, is to shoot in manual mode, and wait for the meter to be 1 stop under (or over) exposed. When that happens you adjust the exposure to bring it back to 0EV.

It's a pain in the arse to manually do, so it would be great if we could automate the function. I know there is a mode in ML that gradually ramps the exposure, but it's not as useful as this.

You would be able to input what values you want to ramp to change the exposure, so could set any combination of shutter speed, aperture, ISO. Also being able to set limits on each would be great, so don't use a shutter speed longer/shorter than XX.

Any ideas if this is possible, or how difficult it would be to implement? I have absolutely zero coding knowledge unfortunately..

Hey,

I'm trying to capture extremely low frame rates in raw VIDEO, for playback as a timelapse video. So I'm working in the region of 2-5FPS.

I get the error "is not possible in current video mode" when trying to record large frame sizes. I zoomed in on LV, but was still restricted to 958 pixels vertically.

As far as I know, RAW video records straight from the LV window. So is this why large frames are unsupported, because there is a max resolution on the LV display?

Hey!

Just wondering if it's possible to change the delay of the self-timer? Currently it has the two options, 2 and 10 seconds.

I just read a thread that seemed to suggest it's possible, however I can't find anything in the menus.

Any help appreciated!

Cheers
