I looked at bunch of cards and non of the manufactures specify mhz. How can I make sure that my next card is 95mhz? Is that what UHS stands for 208mhz?

when its in movie mode and i switch it to lv in eos utility sometimes it freezes before i press record, sometimes after. I have not seen err 80. When it does not freeze right away, i can see it as it is recording but does not last too long - no record of those few seconds either
LV in eos utility (movie mode) does not look like 24fps, more like 15 (unless i'm doing something wrong).

If i take out card it says "card required to record movie"

u right! testing right now

Nope, can't record   it freezes

Iphone:
it freezes frequently and still says that can't record when wifi is enabled. I was not able to record anything.
PC:
have a hard time connecting to eos utility. I go through connection process successfully but all the features are greyed out in eos ustility

It makes jpeg frames for the preview. If you were to record those and put them together you'd have a movie

it records all 24fps?

It does encode jpegs when tethered

Sorry, I don't understand: encode jpegs into movie?

I still dont know how to donate! There used to be a "donate" button but now i dont see it.

1% what's next?

Shutter opens, camera records movie, shutter closes.

why is there no MZ half-shutter? I miss it. I loved it on 5dmii

Ops.., sorry!

I think I found a new bug: when follow focus is set to arrows, you can control focus electronically but if you accidentally hit play button instead of zoom (while recording) the focus motor goes bananas.

Nobody has done like a 14hr balls to the wall shoot with it though.

I have (kind of)! The wedding that I shot, it was 10 hours of shooting. I shot 115GB of material and Tragic Lantern did not fail once.

Works great! Both IPB and All-I. As far as quality, don't know. It is hard to tell. I do not see any difference between the stock or this configuration to be honest. Someone with more knowledge would have to check but the good news is that it is stable! I have been using this chart for a while and if ini can survive this then it will survive the grass.  QP jumps between 1-25 in your config right? So the next question comes to mind is: What is the stock qp? Is it also variable?

I tried many different values for target rate. 300 works until I point it to this resolution star to simulate complex scene. So far none of the different combinations that I have tried with ini modifications (override or not)  have survived the star more then a minute:(

So when jpeg is figured out here, we'll see who's laughing

can't wait! 
I set target rate in RCini to 300000000 like you suggested and it still crashed at complex scenes, but it is stable at 60-65 if I override bit rate to 8 tho. Does that make sense?

It does weird flashing

yep, same here!

what are you contributing to the testing of ML

and you?

People come here for 6d ML information; all they gonna find is pages and pages of gh2 nonsense. Be considerate of others please!

if so, what patch was you running

OMG..,  here we go again - relax kid! I have tried cedna, cluster vanilla and i have tried configuring my own.  I have followed vitaly and driftwood for some time now. I do like HG2 and 3, I just don't like you being annoying about it!  It is just another camera and just another tool- that's all. What's best is subjective and a matter of preference for the given job. People here want to learn about ML. Why don't you start a new thread and talk the opinions there and leave this for Tragic Lantern development- PLEASE!

Your opinion of canon might change

What makes you think that I have never shot on a hacked GH2? Stop this nonsense please!!! THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT THREAD!

See you keep saying I use this and I use that... I, I, I, me, me, me. It's all matter of preference. It is all about the job and what DP wants to accomplish. Stop trying to change people's opinion on what equipment to use. If GH2 works for you, then return your BMCC and stick with it. I love the look canon gives me (for what I do) but I don't go to Sony or Panasonic forums and tell them how their cameras suck and that it is OK to leave it. Everything that you said (wasted your energy on typing) is a waist! You did not change my mind as everything you told here is old news. Yes, I like canon look and I am sticking with it (for now). I take canon 5d or 6d over GH2 anytime of the day, so would you please give it a rest. You have made some decisions for yourself - that's great! Don't force them to people who have made theirs! Keep shooting and have fun!

GH 2 is still h.264 8 bit  good luck color grading that shit. Why is it that I don't see motion films shot on it? I know a lot that was shot with RED- maybe there is a reason? In the shoot out that you are talking about there was 5D and 7D too- so? It is just another tool. You can shoot with iPhone for that matter, if you have a good content.

t goes toe to toe with a RED as far as detail and "you guess?"

lol...

the real question is HAS the 6d been officially hacked?
or do I have to worry about it crashing every 10 seconds?

You mean the ini files? cause my 6D does not crash...

ow light is the ONLY thing the 6d has over the bmcc as far as video.  but a majority of the things the bmcc will be shooting
is properly lit settings for shorts/commercials and so on

Nobody is arguing that! People pick cameras based on a job. You like BMCC - that's great, as it is indeed a good option but let's stay focused here please. I am following this thread for ML development not camera debates- I already heard all that bla-bla-bla...

If you think back to only 5-6 years ago what you could shoot on for 2000$, it was extemely difficult to get results like this

Amen to that brother!
