great video ! love the editing idea !

hmm i think you're right, i presumed it would work, my bad !

Anyone knowing if dual iso raw video will be possible on the 5d2?
Or hardware just too old and slow?

you can do raw dual iso video on the 5d2

brilliant ! very crisp and clear imagery. Did you by any chance use Beauty Box for the skin ? 

incredible performance leap with the 27th build.

I have a 8Gb Sandisk Extreme at 60mb/s and funny enough i get exactly 60mb/s and sometimes just a bit over.

will test out the resolutions right now.

Darkness Short test of desaturation with ml and clear picture style 

I used the lea picture style and desaturation in video mode.  I cant seem to get the vim to embed. Any suggestions?

This is my first video with the new 5D MKII: 14-bit raw Nightly Update build. Huge Thanks to all of the developers, and friendly people on here for help on how to get this working. The Compression in the video is sadly all from YouTube but if you watch in 1080P it's not quite as painful.

Without Further Delay Here It is:

great test mate still a bit on the mangenta side but the detail is impressive !

@palbanet i get continuous 1880x626 (no dropped frames) from a 60mb/s Sandisk Extreme, maybe you've not set up the camera to shoot raw correctly (shoot with small jpeg selected, turn everything in the liveview off, global draw off)
in custom mode 1 i also get extra buffer stars, try it

Ok I really need some help here. So I had ML on my mark ii for some time, so I decided I would try RAW. It worked at first but when I shut my camera off it wouldn't boot back up. I pulled the battery and CF card out. I deleted everything ML related off the CF card, the problem is the camera runs fine with just the battery, but when I put in the CF card it wont boot up!! Please HELP!

had this problem a while back, the card is probably busted, i had to pull the clock battery out just to get the camera to boot.

am i correct in assuming that in 10x mode you don't get any moire or aliasing since there is no line skipping ?

i understand that it is using just a cropped portion of the sensor.

what is the "custum functions mode" and how do i enable it?

they're on your dial knob, labeled C1 C2 C3

don't know if this will help but it states here that black level is 1023 and white level is 15600

as far as the 5d Mark 2 goes

Confirmed here ! I get twice the nr of frames now at unstable resolutions



funny enough i get about the same speed on my 8gb Sandisk 60mb/s

54mb/s average

already spreading the word m8

HA ! So it is not obvious for everybody. Yes You can do twice amount of the frames like in pravdomil's topic picture when he posted his build. 1% commented on it "I see all the buffer stars you got and I'm jealous " and I thought everybody knew it. So now eveyone will get even more frames than me...

guess this is a new breakthrough just did a few tests now and i get double nr of frames on all resolutions that weren't stable for me

I've done those two things. Also in my search for the "golden setting" I've noticed that when You change the main camera dial to either custom or automatic mode You will gain a few buffer stars but there might be some controls issues . Do not know is that an obvious thing for everybody.

HA ! really interesting, in custum functions mode you get almost twice the buffer ! and now i get twice the number of frames at 1880x800

Haven't changed anything... now it's running on 1880 x 854 25fps without problems. Buffer is always between 1 or 2 *
Perhaps a bit off topic but - I'm not a filming pro and everything I know, I learned through tutorial videos or articles on the internet. But what are the advantages of using 24fps? Sure, in this case it's less data on the card. But what are the advantages from a "design" point of view?

24FPS is an industry standard as far as filming goes, it's been since the early days of filming, you get a very filmic motion blur to the shots.
that's the jist of it

Hi guys!

I'm looking for the crop factor mode into the ML menu, but can't find it! Can anyone help me?
I'm running build 29th may on the 5D2.

Thanks!

just zoom in

i've been playing around with the new build and it's the best one so far for me.

I get very stable recordings at 1880x706 1720x732 and 1600x800 that fill the card with no buffer problems.

A few things to mention, i'm using an 8gb Sandisk Extreme 60mb/s, everything in the liveview is turned off, global draw is off, photo mode is jpeg and that seems to boost writing speeds a lot.

I've also noticed that at higher resolutions i get a bigger number of frames if i shoot in the monochrome profile and if fps override is activated, don't know if they are connected in any way i'm just reporting what i see and get.

One other thing is that the body starts to heat up a bit after 1 hour or so of recording raw, at one point the temperture inside was 63C.

I did the benchmark for writing and reading and interestingly enough the speed was lower from what i was seeing while recording.

i get roughly 43mb/s in the benchmarks and when i'm recording i see speeds up to 52mb/s

will test some more!

Shot this yesterday, the images are graded differently just so i could test out how much i can work with them.
