Curious, is there a possible way to enable RAW photos?  Any ideas?

There is a forum for reporting bugs.

Very helpful indeed. Would you mind answering my questions, or have you never reported a bug yourself and you're just here to reap the benefits and not contribute by helping out?

So, I spent some time searching, but I can't find an answer.  I was recording RAW video on 5D3 yesterday from the latest nightly builds, and had some bugs reported on the screen.  How do I report those, and where do I find the relevant files to include in the reports?  Thanks!

That's almost completely overexposed in one ISO. Can you reproduce it?

A video of the camera screen when metering the scene should help. None of my ETTR pictures in full sunlight looked like this...

I'll try again today with a video camera on the screen.  I re-downloaded the cr2hdr from the first post and it looks to be converting the missed files ok.  Thanks,

Shot today in DualIso, using stock ETTR settings, pushed Set in LiveView to meter.  Ended up with a bunch of files that can't be converted.  Here's the first one.  I'm using the last experimental update from a1ex a few pages back.  Thanks!

I've been using the 128gb 1050x cards with no issues whatsoever on production shoots for a few months

We need more info to really be able to help you out.  os, type of computer, card reader make and model, firmware on the 5d3, sd card type, where you installed ml, etc.

saying it doesn't work doesn't help us help you.

Did a shoot last night with the newest build.  Used auto ettr linked to dual iso.  Not sure I'm doing it right, but got good results with the standard settings.  After cr2hdr, the dng files seemed under exposed by about 1.5-2 stops but I was able to raise them without a problem.  Is this the way it is supposed to work, or am I missing something?  Thanks!

I've got one coming too. Should be here the first week of sept I hope!  My 128gb is working flawlessly at 1050x :)
#12
I've got one coming to test. After 9/3 I can post results when I get back from vacation :)

Very nice image. I can see some moire and maybe some fringe in the top of the cabane...

Yeah, on the computer it looks pretty bad.  Straight up RAW is still the best option.  You could process the dual iso better to remove the fringing, but the amount of work added is huge.

The stills converter works if you flip the iso's, but it produces very different results from the 100/1600 at the same settings.  I'm still having a real hard time understanding how to properly expose the image.  Any tips?

The photo side progress has been good.  I'm still getting mixed results, the same as @ed.jenner.  Switching the iso's weirds things up.  I always end up with an image that is about 3 stops underexposed.  The shadows come back pretty nice most of the time, and the highlights are great.

Here's the best I can get with video.  Mind you ,I'm on a mac, and not smart enough to run the command line stuff, so I converted this with son of batch app for osx.  I toyed with the exposure a bit, the first one has no clipped highlights in the live view preview, the second one has some in the clouds.  I boosted both the shadows to 100 and held the highlights to -100 just to see how far I can push it.  Now if someone can help make the upgrades that a1ex made to the cr2hdr to the video end, we would have something amazing!!!

Itching itching itching to see video samples. My line of work is interior real estate video and if it means reliable high dynamic range to compensate for the interior and exterior then I am sold on getting a 5D mkiii  ;D

Me too, if you find any good samples, post them up!  I haven't gotten it worth selling. Yet :)

@optik re: running on xp

I don't know why, but to run on xp, you have to right click and open with. Otherwise it doesn't work. Also, we can't batch by dragging onto, makes processing a bunch of images a giant pain...
#17
Probably I'm doing it wrong, but I haven't gotten any good video samples yet....  I'll try again today :)
#18
Thanks A1ex,  That fixed the magenta highlight issues, but still major ailiasing.  I probably exposed way wrong and didn't keep things covered by both iso's.

One thought I had that might make things easier shooting is to be able to reverse the iso's.  Meaning shoot at iso 1600 and use iso 100 as recovery for the highlights.  I did a real estate shoot where if I exposed to not clip the highlights at iso 100 and set the dual iso to 1600 to save the mid tones, the live view was basically black and I couldn't frame my shots.  If I switched to 1600, then I could see the scene more properly exposed.  I would then switch back to 100 to shoot...

Maybe your script is already that smart, I haven't tested it yet.  I also have found that for video to come out correct, I have to reverse the settings as well...

Thanks for all your accomplishments, it really is mind boggling!

@Danne - What causes the magenta issue in the highlights?  I have a few pics I can't get that to go away on...

Hey all, I'll chime in here asap.  I've got the 128gb 1050x card, and it performed well all weekend on a major shoot.  When I get back to the office, I'll write down all my settings and you can test them on your camera.  We're prepping for storm flossie right now, so once I lock in, I'll post up :)

Quick test before running out the door this morning.  1920x1080 @24fps continuous.

Komputer bay 128GB 1050x card.  Attached is the first benchmark, no warmups, no hacks.  Stoked on the card and the support!  I'll try higher resolutions this afternoon :)

Just to chime in, I can't speak highly enough of the Komputerbay tech support team.  Fast responses and great answers to my questions!  They are not your traditional tech support that reads off an answer sheet, they actually know their stuff.  I have a new 1050x 128GB card on the way and I'll be posting up the results here asap!
#23
This is great alex!  I'm happy to help test with my 5d3, but I'm a mac guy and having some difficulties post processing the files.  Read the pdf, downloaded the zips from page one, but then what?  Sorry for the stupid ?'s...
I searched for a tutorial on using the cr2hdr.exe and the draw.exe but no luck.  Thanks anyone for some direction!
#24
Mine's on its way, I'll report back asap!
Any special requests?
#25
I'm seeing an improvement as well.  5d3 Komputerbay 128gb card.  Was 1920 @24 for 150 frames before skipping.  Now 518 frames before skipping...  Oh, and global draw on, memory hack on, force left...
I'm still new, hope this helps!
