Divide focale by 1.63
11-16 mm in APS-C => 6.75-10 mm in FF
(for APS-C lenses only)

Ok, vignette has gone but welcome distortion !

And due to APS-C crop factor... cropped raw video are not very wide !
I make my tests with the 20mm f2.8 on the 6D..... and not that wide finaly.

Thinking about buying the 17-40 f4 now....
Advantage: it's parfocal..... Focus point doesn't change while zooming... vertigo effect, here i come !

Would be nice to have DXOMark rank Raw video capabilities of Canon cams....
DR, low light, color depth...
The day it'll happen....

SD Cards i tested:

32GB Sandisk Extreme PRO (95MB/s)
128GB Sandisk Extreme (45MB/s)
64GB Lexar 200X (30MB/s)
Waiting for 64GB TOSHIBA EXCERIA Type 2 (60MB/s)

For now, the Sandisk Extreme PRO (95MB/s) gives the best writing speed. But it's limited to 64GB, no 128GB yet.
Anyone got a SD LEXAR PRO 600X (available in 16/32/64/128/256) ?

Better and better... and better !

With update: [6D] Not messed.zip
Sandisk Extreme Pro (95MB/s) formated exFAT - Exp Override ON - Global draw OFF - FPS Override 23.976 - Preview Canon

[email protected]: 9.58 minutes / 24.9GB without frame drop !
[email protected]: 1 minute without frame drop - useless to me
[email protected]: 55 seconds without frame drop - useless to me
[email protected]: 45 seconds without frame drop - useless to me
[email protected]: 42 seconds without frame drop - useless to me

[email protected]: 10.30 minutes / 26.56GB without frame drop ! if you activate
"Dialog Timers: disabled" in ML debug menu..

the autoexec.bin is in MODULES now ?

Got Err 80 using that update.

Teo770, could you please try 1792x752 at 23,976fps and tell how many frames you acquired?

With Sandisk Extreme pro (95MB/s)
1792x752: 405 frames about 10sec without frame drops
1600x672: 2000 frames about 1.25 minutes without frame drops

But guys, recording less than 2 minutes... does it make sens ?

With a good 1600x640, able to handle 8+ minutes recording..... you can make 2 sequences only on a 32GB SD card....
That's not bad and easy upscalable to 1920x768 (x1.2)

For me resolutions causing frame drops before 5 minutes is just not usable.
With multiple 5 minutes sequences (10 sequences on a 64GB), you can really create something !

With 8.30 minutes (my longer sequence without frame drop), we are very close to continuoous recording @1600x640.
OK, not full HD but i m pretty sure in the next few days Alex will optimize his new algorithm and we will gain
more and more recording time/resolution.

The "procedure" is:

- Turn cam on in PHOTO mode
- load raw_rec.mo
- in Debug menu, click "Don't click me"
- switch LV to MOVIE mode

then record.

On Canon 6D, I have recorded 8.30 minutes (22GB) @1600x640 on a Sandisk Extreme PRO 32GB (95MB/s) card formated Exfat.

We would really need something btw
Preview: Canon and Preview: Hacked (freezed)

It s not possible to display only the recorded frame ? (1600x640 for example)
Wouldn't help no ?

Or.... display LV at 5 FPS...

Meanwhile, tried my HDMI external monitor.... It displays exactly the LV display so when freezed -> freezed too.
So i presume if you turn off the LV, will turn black too.

Wait......

1600x640 with preview: Canon => 8minutes30sec !!! 20.8GB till frame drops

As suggested 1%:
- start the cam in PHOTO mode
- load the raw_rec.mo
- fire "Don't click me"

then switch to MOVIE mode and.... roll on !!! => 8.30 minutes !
2nd try: 8.45 minutes if u stay in PHOTO mode

Noisyboy.... confirm ?

Me too, that's why i say it !

Actually, we fire "Dont click me" after powering on the cam in VIDEO mode so LV opens immediatly.
Then, we load raw_rec, then we fire "Don't click me"....

You mean, we can have even more starting in PHOTO mode, loading raw rec, then firing Dont click me,
then switching to MOVIE mode ?

Just someone more to confirm now...
Or they will think of us as European fools !

2.20 minutes => 7 minutes a good 3x ratio.....

But.... would be nice to have more people confirming before champagne !

And.... perhaps an issue for older cams not supporting exFAT....
I know 6D and 5D Mark III does.
Other cams with CF cards can already handle higher write speeds....
A sheet with exFAT compatible cameras is needed !

Can you make it default only when using raw video module ?
And cancel it if we unload raw video module ?
Cause ISO can be setted in ML menu, Q menu.... (personaly useless)

Q menu allows you to modify Picture style, WB, drive .... all things useless when recording RAW video, no ?

No All-i ! IPB
Pictures: RAW

1600x640 with preview: Canon => 7min01 till frame drops !!
1600x640 with Preview: Hacked or Hacked no prev, i have continuous recording no frame drop till card full (32GB) !
1600x672 with preview: Canon => 1min25 till frame drops
1600x672 with preview: Hacked => 1min35 till frame drops => interesting no major gain from Hacked preview
1664x624 with preview: Canon => 3min40 till frame drops

New live optimizing buffer algorithm is very promising !!

1600x640 * 1.2 = 1920x768 .... miam !

4096K but not important i think

Hoho: Card format tric !

1%, as i already said, got 2 cards Sandisk Extreme PRO (95MB/s) 32GB.
1 formated FAT 32
1 formated ExFAT

I test every update on both and....

FAT32: 2.20 minutes @1600x640-24p till frame drops
ExFAT: 7 minutes @1600x640-24 till frame drops 17GB !!!!!

It's even better than my 128GB Sandisk Extreme (not pro) 45MB/s which can record 5.05 minutes without frame drops

Is it due to a 4GB file splitting issue ? (diff. btw fat32 and exfat recording times)

Can someone confirm the recording time diff btw fat32 and exfat too ?

Damn it though! Still getting nothing more than 2:20 with that res... Wonder what else is stopping it?

Card: Sandisk Extreme 45MB/s 128GB

With last update: 6D hacks
Start in C2m mode, LV directly in video mode.
Load ONLY raw-rec.mo
Debug menu -> Don't click me
Exp override ON
Raw video @1600x640
FPS override 24
Global Draw OFF
Framing CENTER
Preview Canon
Memory hack ON

Nothing else

definatly !

1600x640 with "don't click me" AND Preview "Hacked":
9.08 minutes without frame skip !!! 22GB wao ! 40.6MB/s

Lead me to a LV question...

If you cut LV display (turn it off by soft) when recording... do we get extra MB/S or buffer size ?
If you cut LV off, would external HDMI monitor continue to display something ?

If you want to try that, got an external hdmi monitor.

Perhaps, reactivating LV every.... 15sec ?

Dude - what settings did you have for getting over 5 mins?

With last update 6D hacks
Start in C2m mode, LV directly in video mode.
Load ONLY raw-rec.mo
Exp ovirride ON
Raw video @1600x640
FPS override 24
Global Draw OFF
Framing CENTER
Preview Canon
Memory hack ON

last result: 5.05 minutes , 40.2 MB/s

i confirm: not only 1 extra second using "force left"

1%, what's behind this "don't click me" function

Cause without it, i can record 2.15 min @ 1600x640-24p
And with... 5,35 minutes !

Bug: (since NR multi available in video mode i think)
Very often, but not always ! in C2m Mode, powering on the camera directly in video mode, when loading modules, camera crashes.
But no ML crash log, and it's probably a Canon crash. Need to pull out the battery.

With the last release [113] Unified Raw Module.zip, i see quasi no more difference btw photo and video mode.

It's like if video mode as reach the photo mode in terms of buffers, time recording... etc
You agree ?

Good thing....

Do you think exifs data could come in the DNGs ?

Lens used, aperture, shutter, iso ?

So we can for example split main movie in sub sequences based on Aperture value, apply different parameters according to aperture.
Would be very cool when you change aperture or shutter value while recording... (changing shutter value is a non sens to me).
