You might find the 3x crop on the 5D3 challenging at first.

can you pls tell me how 3x crop is challenging to use? doesn't it just increase the reach of the lens by 3x? is there anything more complex than just switching to 3x crop?

as i said, i don't intend to use it for RAW shooting but only for HD shootings. most of the issues i surfed were related to RAW. i am hoping that using ML for HD won't be as troublesome as using it for RAW.

is magic lantern reliable/stable for professional/paid projects?

Though i would not be shooting raw, i intend to shoot in HD h264 format only.

i just want to use 2 features of ML and those are focus peaking (for shift focus shots and not magnifying every time to focus) and 3x crop which will increase the reach of my 24-105 mm f4 lens.

inputs will be appreciated!!

regards,

Hi all,

i want to know 2 very  basic queries before i install magic lantern on my 5d mark 3.

1. i will be recording my footage on cf card and keeping the magic lantern on SD card. Now, do i have to keep magic 
    lantern on CF card also to record the footage on CF card or will keeping ML on SD card only will do the job?

2. After installing ML, will i be able to use canon menus/command e.g will i have to change the iso and f-stops from ML
    menu or i can change them from the canon specified buttons of iso and wheel for f-stops?

and finally, how reliable is focus peaking? i have 50mm f1.8, is it possible to keep the subject in focus by taking the reference from ML focus peaking @ f1.8?

i would be very happy if you could answer this simple questions

regards,

hi everybody,

i am all prepared to enter the world of magic lantern. i have few basic questions to ask and will be glad if you could answer them.

1. From where can i get the information of how to do things in magic lantern?

2. I have 24-105mm lens with my 5d mark iii, i was planning to buy a tele lens 70-200mm, but will using the crop mode
    in   ML  with 24-105, increase the reach (tele end) of my 24-105mm lens? e.g if i use 3x crop will it mean
    my 105mm x 3x crop mode = 315mm? (which  means i now don't need 70-200 lens).

please do help me with my query.

thanks in advance,

regards,

:)
