Hi all,
I'm not necessarily a video guy, but I'm going to attempt putting together some clips that I will shoot soon. I've been reading tons, and shooting at or below 1080p seems like a loser for various good reasons. Even with a 5D3, I have to compromise to some extent, right?. So my goal was: 1080p with a mix of 24-30fps and an attempt at 45/50/60 fps for the enjoyment of trying to do a half-baked so-motion thing.
So now I have the crop_rec module. I've tried the examples from the video on the crop_rec page, and results are varied. The whole 5x zoom thing, while clear as to execution, confusing as to what is actually happening. I doubt I'm going to shoot anything in my upcoming scenario with a frozen live view, or anything where live view isn't representative of exactly what is going on, unless someone can help me understand what I am looking at. the idea is to snag the highest quality possible.
What I'm going to be shooting doesn't need to be award winning, but it does need to come back with me and actually be recorded and eventually be shared on youtube. I just want some good and varied footage so I can play in resolve.
What's my best bet for normal video and some high FPS to be compiled together?
Would I better better off using standard ML raw (pre crop_rec)? And why doesn't MLV 2.0 work at all on my 5D3?
I bought (2) 126GB cards, so I have room to do whatever.
Any thoughts are appreciated. I'm heading out this weekend, and I'd like to decide on a plan before then.
Also, any thoughts on uping to 1080p form a lower res? Not a lot of good info out on the google about that.
Thank you!
