Raw Video / Canon 60D RAW Video
July 05, 2022, 10:33:31 AM
Hi all,

I have a Canon 60D I use with a telescope for recording 3 minute videos of Jupiter and 7.5 minute videos of Saturn.
Using the 640 x 480 video crop mode I get videos with 50 frames/second, so a 3 minute video is 9000 frames.
I then convert the video from MOV to AVI and stack the best half of the 9000 frames into a single image using dedicated software to get a single image of the planet.

I was reading that the Canon MOV file is compressed so have downloaded ML to see if the quality will improve if I start with an uncompressed video.
Magic Lantern is working and I see it has useful features like chip temperature, but I cannot get the software to save anything other than MOV files.

Can I get some direction please to save a RAW MLV video instead of an MOV file. The only quality setting I can see is changing QScale.
There does not appear to be any setting in ML for RAW video.

Thanks in advance.

Peter.
