The only technical comment I would have is about the aspect ratio as it seems a little squashed vertically?

Same impression here...

But

Shot in 24fps (override on) in 1536x518 (16x9) with ETTR.

1536x518 is not 16:9 !

Is it 1x1 or 3x5 subsampling ?

Happy to see a lot of activity around the M ! 
Il like this "small big one" !

haven't tried AETTR yet

You MUST give it a try !

Visited your site and facebook page. Excellent work.

Wow, thank you very much !   

Thank you !

my exposure times got longer than my interval time

With AETTR you can set your max exposure time. My configuration with 2 sec. image review is to add 12 seconds to the intervalometer, eg : max. exp. 30 sec + 12 = 42 sec. intervals.

Here's an external battery hardware hack you might find interesting should you run out of extension cords:

Yeah, nice idea ! I've got my DIY portable power supply done with an 12V motorcycle battery and/or a regulator to feed 7.5v to the camera or a 5v USB adapter for other use (GoPro, smartphone charging). It's a bit heavy but you can do loooooooong timelapses ! And i've got another one done with a car (!!!) battery and an 12 vdc to 220 vac converter. (using it for continuous lighting with led panels) heavy but great ! 

EOS-M, Sigma 10-20mm 1:4-5.6 EX DC HSM (with Canon EF to M adapter), Wall plug 

AETTR (allways ON) & Post-Deflcker (xmp) modules.
Slowest shutter 32", max ISO 1600, intervalometer 42"

Sources are never useless because other people may help you...
OK, wait and see ! ;-)

What about open source ?
As you may know we highly prefer OS here...
And I think that we don't want to start another "bad plan"...
So your comments about this fact are welcome !

Can you use your Canon L lenses with the Canon C500

No, only Nikon...

Simple answer : NO.

@Steven Griffith

Any chance to get VisionLOG for EOS-M ?
Or any trick ?

- EOS M applies some FPS settings only when you record H.264 (unlike all other cameras), and current hard limit definitions do not consider this.

Have tested while recording H.264

To see behind ML menu, normally you need to press the LiveView button or the Zoom In button. Do you have any of those on M?

No LV (Mirrorless) and the Zoom In is on touch screen, if i activate it (5x) and press REC the LV get back to no zoom.

Crop mode and 5x zoom are not the same thing. You posted some dumps a while ago, so you already know these modes.

From this evening to monday i go to Croatia.  So i will try when i return... If i return !
BUT... I want to film with my M in RAW... Is it risky ? (i just want to use FPS override to get 25)

But just a question :

I have noticed that i can't go lower than 520 and 1970. The value doesn't change in the display. (But the FT value is still changing)
Is it an "hard limit" in the ML code ?

Safe values.

1920x1080p24 : A 520, B 1970
1280x720p50 : A 520, B 1970
640x480p25 : A 520, B 1970
Photo Mode : can't see, no image in background of the ML menu...
Zoom mode : can't see, no image in background of the ML menu... (but do you mean Crop Mode ? In that case A safe value is 534)

And the black bar (only appearing in crop mode) on the right disappear with a value of FPS timer A 534 (FT+4)

Have tried to reproduce this :

But I have two problems :
-My exposure is good (f/11; 1/250 shutter; and ISO 160) and when when I enable FPS override feature the exposure change : It's completely overexposed, even if I change the shutter speed the exposure is the same and the histogram don't change.

For me everything is working, i can change the aperture or shutter and the histogram is changing accordingly. (i have expo. Override enabled)

Yes.

- Actual FPS no longer changing (that means, FPS_TIMER_*_MIN can be defined to a lower value)

FPS timer A : 520 (FT-12)
FPS timer B : 1970 (FT-81)

Sorry, want to help but i can't get it...

To fix it, set FPS_TIMER_A_MIN and FPS_TIMER_B_MIN to a very low value, then, for each video mode, find the lowest timer value which still gives a good image without artifacts (by trial and error, starting from default FPS, fine-tune one timer manually from ML menu). The good news is that those timers are independent (timer A gives the time to read one line, and timer B gives the time for the entire frame - see comments in rolling_shutter_print). Watch out for the vertical black bar on the right side (visible especially in RAW). Usually, the minimum timer value is a few units below the default value.

Note that video modes on EOS-M are different when recording and when not, unlike all other cameras.

1. Cleared all ML settings. (to be clean)
2. Canon Movie mode, 1920x1080p25, Manual.
3. Enabled FPS Override in ML : 30 (from 30), exact FPS
4. Started recording H.264
5. Opened ML menu while recording and started to play with FPS timer A and FPS timer B

But no change or artifacts noticed on the LV image.

What i'm doing wrong ?

Hé bien moi j'habite à Mathod, je bossais à la tv à Genève et je me suis rapproché de la maison en venant bosser à la radio à Lausanne (fusion RTS aidant...)
Oui, le monde est petit... 
Avec plaisir et à la prochaine !

Sorry ML team for spamming in french, but kichetof and i discovered that i work near where kichetof is living ! Small word...

Excellent !   
Ben je suis tout près du CHUV, je bosse à la radio...
Avec plaisir pour une bière une fois !

BBQ at home

Vu la météo prévue pour le week-end ça va pas être possible...   
Donc, au boulot ! 

Non, je rigole, content de te revoir parmi nous et bonjour depuis les hauts de Lausanne ! (où je bosse) 

What do you mean ?
Take a SP while recording 1080p25 ?

If yes, here is : http://www.filedropper.com/09500000

Tried at different fps (1,10,20) but can't get it clean...

Ok, fine. Happy to help.

To get a clean picture in 1080p rec, you might have better luck with a low FPS.

Do you need it ?
