Quote from: Andy600 on July 30, 2013, 09:29:24 PMI mentioned because someone with a 5dmkiii recomended shooting with ETTR on, I thought maybe it set the aperture to the maximum level without burning after taking a shot and before starting to record.
@Araucaria - Tragic Lantern has a feature to auto-disable Global Draw when you hit record. You should be able to shoot with the histogram on without a big hit to performance. ETTR is a method of shooting. If you are referring to the auto-ETTR module, yes, it does work in the 50D but you shouldn't use it for video. Expose with the raw histogram.
Anyway, I'll try tragic lantern. Btw, is there a way to get rid of the black borders in tragic lantern? I guess it's trivial but I didn't have time to look for the setting.
