dmilligan, ty for the input. I am new to it & still learning. It would be nice to do a round table learning tutorial for us newbies of ML.

i just walked outside, it is completely overcast. in ML the sky is completely flared out, like infrared, but if I disable ML it is fine. I will do a fixed 10 second video of each if needed.
EDIT: Until I get a better understanding of ML, I will use it for time lapse only, as that is straight forward.

What would cause the lens flare? It was overcast and I have not changed any setting in ML. I guess I was wrong in assuming that ML was changing my video settings.

Well, it surely changed my shooting quality.So maybe ML is not for me? I am a entry level photographer, trying to learn videography
This was on a overcast morning and ANY light source appears infrared in my display.

I have sent 2 PM's to mods here w/o any replies back. I have something I want to post, but want to get permission first.
Thanks in advance,
Bill

Issue may be Resolved. I removed the MAGIC.CFG file & now I am back to default settings. i will try to record another vid & report back.
Ty for all the input.

4 attempts, each is 19mb & 1 second long.

Walter, I just pulled my SD card, it says 10 (with a C around it, also has a 1 surrounded by a U. Should I do a benchmark?

To be completely honest, I am new to advanced  videography. I have owned my t3i for about a year and have shot 1000's of still and 15-50 vids, video shot straight out of the camera, no changing of settings while in video mode. I have recently started a Youtube Channel and want to start providing a quality filmed & edited video (s) for my subscribers.
That being said, I would like to start filming outdoor stuff,winters on the river I live on, filming as I develop another piece of property I have, street videography  (Washington State) and maybe some indoor vids (weddings, family reunions, city council meetings) I tried again today & the same thing occurs, but I did notice the file is a .mov, so it is not shooting in .raw, correct? As time & my experience level increases with post-editing (Adobe Premiere Pro CS 6) I would then like to start challenging myself.
Settings
Movie Exposure:auto
Rec size:1920x1080 (30fps) that should be 24?
Metering Timer:16 seconds
Picture Style:Auto
Quality:L (full 1/4 icon)
Image review:2 seconds
Video System:NTSC
Do you need any other settings?
I have linked a YT vid I shot last week, before I installed ML.

Thanks again!

I did not change any video settings since I cleared settings & formatted the card.  What setting do you need please?
thanks for answering.

New to ML, still learning. So I tried to shoot my first video yesterday and kept on getting the following message "Movie Recording has been stopped Automatically" so I stopped video and went back to shooting a few stills. I tried again today at home & it seems like it flashed that message, stops recording & starts over again. Have you seen this before? Never a issue before the install of ML. I am using a Sandisk Ultra Plus (40mb/s) 16GB card in my T3I.
Any input or fix would be appreciated.

I was finally successful in the installation of ML 2.3! I then deleted those files & updated with the Nightly Build and I am off & running!
I have NO IDEA what I am doing, but I will play tonight with a time lapse. (20s daylight & 60 second after dark.

Hello to the group. I am a amatuer photographer shooting with a Canon t3i (Kit Lens, 50mm 1.8, and a Tokina SD 11-16 F 2.8 DX Wide Angle lens. I am really starting to enjoy this addiction and  have been looking at ML for awhile now. I really want to learn videography & post-production, as I have Premiere Pro CS6. ONCE I get it to install, so I can start learning it, I hope to be a contributing part of the group!
Until then I will be reading & learning.
Bill

Super, very captivating!
