ahhh finally someone gets what i mean/i have explained it adequately


thanks glubber, thats definitely what im trying to find out.

anyone else confirm this? 

Hi Lenny, clearly i am not explaining this right.
My old neutral settings were not default neutral, i dialed the contrast down, my user def 1(profile of choice) was neutral with other changes, including contrast at 0, so what im wondering was if the camera(550d) used the default neutral to apply my changes to or the already contrast altered neutral plus my further changes...

Hello, i was wondering if i might be able to ask a quick question.
I was recently installing magic lantern firmware and had to wipe all my picture styles(i cant remember at which step i had to do this- maybe updating to most recent canon firmware). The picture style i formally used(named user def 1) is neutral with some adjustments to contrast and saturation. The thing is i also had adjusted my normal neutral picture profile so would my custom profile(user def 1) start with my already tampered neutral profile and make my further adjustments from there or would the picture setting of neutral be the standard pre tampered starting base for my custom style?

I hope this is clear enough but let me try and explain it differently.

My preferred picture style(which is now gone) was an adjusted version of neutral, but i had also made a minor adjustment to the real "neutral" profile before creating my picture style, would this mean my "user defined picture style" would be the adjusted neutral as its base, plus my adjustments for the profile itself.

hmmm, however i word it it sounds confused, but i'd appreciate it if anyone get's what i mean and knows how the camera uses picture profiles would respond.

thanks.

Can anyone comment on what is reasonably usable resolution wise on the 550d, say around 10 seconds. I understand that max continuous resolution is 960x540, is this really comparable sharpness and resolution wise to the 1080 h264, would those of you that have used and compared it opt for the 550 RAW over the h264?

I am considering shooting a project in RAW and could probably manage with 10-12 second bursts, what are we looking at roughly, for a 2.35 or 16x9 finish, i was thinking 1200x500 maybe?
