In theory: YES!
Some are able to shoot more frames with a given resolution by using card xy from brand xyz than me.
I own a 95 mb/s and a 30mb/s from Scandisk and a class 10 noname SD-Card. But no significant differnence in performance.

When using 720p be beware that the frame is squeezed in vertical resolution!
In fps override set your desired fps (i.e. 24 fps or 23.976) and choose "low jellow" for 180° shutter.

Edit: I'm not shure if its REAL 180° or somewhere near. I believe the displayed shutterspeed in screenoverlay is wrong.

Okey, thank you so much for that information. I will try the low jellow also for the 180 shutter.
And what I can see if that if I set the camera to like 720p@60fps I can get higher resolution than if I use 1080p@24fps. Don't know, but the quality for scaling up to 720 or 1080p would be the same? Anyone who have made any tests? Otherwise I will try next week to make some tests and see if I can tell any difference.

EDIT: How much is it squeezed in vertical? How much do I need to correct for it?

Hy everyone. This is my very first post in here so be nice pls;)

I was wondering about the whole RAW on the 550D thing. Is it even worth mentioning? - As I tested it, I was able to record with my 15mbs card somewhere about 900x300  continuously. In the hype of being able to record RAW I was about to buy the Sandisc 95mbs card. But turns out the camera internal writing speed is maxed at 21mbs. this means: The maximum resolution one can get RAW is somewhere about 1152x432. This is .. ehm... very little. So here is my point: Even though the RAW has a slighter sharper image, the H264 can go more than double the resolution (1920x1080) which makes that one RAW-sharper benefit not even worth mentioning.
Now I know that it sounds very harsh and disrespectful to those guys working on this project, which is really the opposite of what I was trying to achieve. In fact I am a big fan and was reading and using Magic lantern since the very first days.
At the end of the day we all have the same goal: to get a better looking image. But from what I can see, the RAW solution does not offer a better image quality in it's current state. So what I am trying to say is: Whats the point in shooting a squeezed VGA resolution Raw? - I know this forum is exactly about trying to make the impossible possible, but from what I have heard, I think that we have reached the limits of the 550D..
Please reply if I am wrong, because I really wish to be so.

Apologies for my bad english.

In other words, it doesn't make any difference if I use a 45mb/s or a 95mb/s sd card? I will still have the same max resolution on the 550D?

EDIT: Does it matter if I have 1080p@24 or 720@50/60 with FPS override? Will the 720 make me get better resolution.
'Cause I can get the right shutter speed with 1080p@24. When I use 720p@50/60 I cant get the 180 degree shutter speed. Any ideas?

Have you enabled the raw modules?
Then you should find it at the bottom line of the Movie menu.

Yeah saw it just after I posted it. Had to load the modules. Lulz. Thanks!

Can't find the RAW video option on the ML_550D_Dual_ISO_Aug_25_2013_Update.zip release. Anyone who can help me to enable it?

I was in the same boat as you 3 days ago and I downloaded the same build and it all works just as the previous version.
Haven`t tried the dual iso yet, and can`t really comment on lenghts of the raw, because I just did a couple of test shots. But so far, for what I film(skateboarding) raw will probably not be something to use all the time. The crop, kills it. Othervise it looks good, just as long your not glued to the screen, step a couple steps back and it looks better than h.264 full HD.
But as I said, crop, no playback, not being able to erase clips on camera and the fact that a 16gb card would be filled in a couple of minutes are the drawbacks. I was scouting the net the other day and saw that someone developed a software for 550d to record 2 and 4k video, but it seem that it was a hoax. That would be something I would be interested in very much and 120fps :)
daydreaming :D
Short...I would use raw to show off to friends, as far as youtube and vimeo goes, most will not notice the diference. At least not for the type of filming I do.

The build mentioned in the video is a little old, but you can download the newest one from the first post as mentioned.



Okey, thanks guys. I will try to install the latest one. Just pop it in and try it and follow a video tutorial for install. Do I need to care about the text on the first page:
"Current state-of-the-art :

Problem : Raw video recording works, finally !...." about all the steps and so on?

... Even too lazy to read the first post ?  :'(

I read the first page and downloaded MK11174's latest build with DUAL ISO. Was just wondering if that one works, if it's stable and how long and good clips you get? And if it's just to install it like the regular ML build without RAW? Is there any installation guide?
Would appreciate if people could say which build they use for their videos and so on :)

Too lazy to look through all 41 pages. Anyone who can be a nice boy/girl and link download for a full working RAW video ML for 550D? Also a quick little guide. Or is it just to install like the regular ML? Thanks guys :)

Post-processing Workflow / Re: DSLR Color Space
May 30, 2013, 07:57:24 PM
Yeah. But the T2i can't yet shoot raw, right? In other words, when you shoot "normal" video with the T2i, I will shoot in sRGB? So the color managemnt in like AE and Nuke should be sRGB? Nuke tells me anyway that it recognize the h264 from the camera as "default gamma 1.8", not "sRGB". Should I import every clip to AE, render out to like .tif seq and it will become sRGB?

How good is 5DtoRGB? Maybe I shall use that instead of Cineform? How is ProRess? Is it better to use ProRes then the original files from the camera?

Post-processing Workflow / DSLR Color Space
May 30, 2013, 07:04:26 PM
I'm browsing the web to try and find what color space Canon DSLR video have. Is it sRGB or is it rec.709? Or is it like I saw on Creative Cow that they shoot in Y'CbCr? When I put my raw video from my camera into Nuke and look what Nuke sees it says "default (gamma 1.8). I have a 550D(T2i) if it makes any difference.

Also, when I put my DSLR footage into i.e After Effects, do I need to change the color management to something or is it kina care for YouTube and web? Also, should I edit in PR the raw videos or convert? I would convert to ProRes if I had a Mac.

Would appreciate answers on all of this so I get a better understanding on what workflow I need for PR, AE and Nuke. Like what converter, prefer free one, to convert my DSLR footage, what color space it have and what color space to use in AE etc.

I saw i.e that someone used Cineform NeoHD to convert the h264-files from the camera to Cineform. ( https://vimeo.com/19908622 )

Best regards!
