lexar 800x 64gb
70mb/s in crystaldisc
66mb/s in movie mode with GD on, small hacks on
can record 1920x818/25 continuous, 1920x1080/25 for 8secs
..im saving to buy some good cards

how about the sync'ing delay when you turn on..or pressing record
also is the framing good with 5d3? Does it keep full res while recording?
cheers

its in the 1.2.3...load MLV module,restart and rec in MLV format (same with RAW module if u wanna rec in RAW)

maybe you burnt this one too coz consistent speed @65 doesnt sound too right whatever the parameter lol those KB cards are building a career in ML forum...maybe ill w8 for the 1200 ones...for now i think the 1000s 64 are the most reliable and u wont get any better result with 1050,1066,1099

ok using raw and everything works ok...i had couple bad frames once with the early 31th build but couldn't reproduce and since then im with 17th build and np...we are ready for testing the 'real sensor upgrade'

better run a movie ML bench for your card so u get an idea of your card's mb/s

i shot 1 time RAW 720p @50fps with np..best is to experiment yourself and see which settings are good for your purpose

a) I did lot of shots using .RAW
b) The problem start when I put OFF RAW - restart - and Use .mov for a long interview.
c) I put .RAW again, restart.
d) After that shot, the colours of videos appear divide for yellow, green, like a Warhol paint, with out TOO MUCH details.
RESTART. Skipping frames. Restart, Memory Hack On. Global Draw Off. And REC in that conditions.

so the problem appears with the RAW files (the 2nd time after switching from h.264 to RAW again)?
have you gone through your steps again and had same result?
what does the frame looks like ? (upload a pic if you can plz)

wooooohoooooo...first test seems to be working very good.
you guys are legends .many thankssssssss

Thx for reply..although im not talking about the cf speed but the camera's writing speed (sry i didnt clarify that as i should)
and the guys over komputerbay are quite sure that 5dmk3 is limited to 100mb/s max

Hello,

We recommend the 1000X - is faster than any of the ML based cameras. The 1050X is even faster but you will not be able to take advance to the speed as the 5DM3 is limited to 100MB/s:

We suggest you use settings recommended by this manual for the 5DM3 for the ML build/s:

Please ensure that you are using these cards with a true UDMA7 compatible USB 3.0 card reader. If these cards are not used with UDMA7 compatible devices, they will eventually corrupt the card/data on it. We recommend investing in a Kingston USB 3.0 FCR-HS3.
Thank You

HI all..anyone has tested the lexar 64GB 800x in movie mode? I wonder what resolution this card can handle in ML..
