If the 5D2 cost $200 more than an EOSM then it means you can get at least two EOSM's for the price of a 5D2. That sounds about right.

1) 5D2 is a full frame camera while the EOSM is APS-C. Won't argue over which camera has the advantage on that one.
5D2 uses a faster CF card interface but the EOSM can use the sd_uhs module (on the cutting edge builds) that speeds up the write speed considerably.
The crop_rec branches on the main repository support all of the Digic 5 cameras including the EOSM while the crop_rec work on the 5D2 and one other Digic 4 camera is mostly on one developer's unpublished repository.

2) Not sure but this calculator might help: https://rawcalculator.netlify.com/calculator_desktop

thats a very useful calculator

thanks guys. didnt realise the processors are different . thanks for the help

hi guys. im in a dilemma.
im interested to get either one for non-4k (near full hd) raw video + audio 10-12bit for at least 5minutes.
i know budget is a consideration, but I found one 5d ii which is just $200 more than the eos m.
i understand that for recording raw + audio, Ill need to crop anyway, thereby not fully utilising the 5d sensor.

1)so big question is, what's the advantage of 5d ii over eos m for the above use case? (or vice versa)

2)what is the typical file size for a raw 5 minute video+audio?

thanks so much ! wasn't aware about it. awesome

hi guys, just wondering. does ML allow capturing single frame RAW 'video' ? or taking photo without firing the mechanical shutter within video specs limitations (resolution & shutter speed).
reason I ask is if a camera has broken shutter and one can't afford to replace it yet, allowing stills capture in video mode could be a temporary workaround. any help is greatly appreciated

hi guys. I'm very interested in getting a 5d mkii.
someone posted in youtube where he can use split image focusing with his 70d magic zoom
since magic zoom is available for 5d mkii, does it also mean split image option is also available ?

thanks in advance !
