UHS-I can either support a clock of 100MHz writing 4-bits (1/2 byte) per clock = 50 MB/s or UHS104 specifies a 208MHz clock writing 4-bits per clock = 104 MB/s.  The SD controller in the T4i is a Macronix MX25L6436EM2I-10G with a clock speed of 104MHz.  The T4i will not support anything faster than 50MB/s. Slice and dice your video however you want.  That is the (theoretical maximum) hose you have to work with.

I wonder if the T5i fixed this by using the 208MHz part?

Right. I finally got my first DSLR after wanting one for about 2 years. Got a T4i a little over a month ago and haven't even got to really use it yet and now the T5i. I really hope ML for the T4i doesn't get scrapped, if that happens i'd have to sell my T4i for a loss. Yeah ML being in development for the T4i was honestly a pretty big factor when I purchased.

Same boat here.  I waited a few months to purchase my T4i because of the grip/rubber issues.  Now that I have had it a couple of months, a new model gets released.  This always seems to happen when I finally buy something expensive.  *sigh*  Oh well, at least now that I have my first DSLR, I can start learning.

I wonder if it would reduce most of the "when will it be ready" posts if the first post was reformatted into a status post?  I am not talking about something fancy, but a simple "Start Here" type of thing.
