It's a shame this is all handheld and includes all of the focus and exposure tweaking, because the colors are quite stunning.

EOS M -> MLV-App -> CDNG -> Darktable -> ffmpeg

Titles were done with LaTeX and Inkscape. The lens is a C mount security camera lens.

This is about 30 minutes of random clips, in order, as the sun goes down on the midway portion of the Ohio State Fair. This fair is so big I don't think a video of this length would begin to showcase just even the quilts that were on display, let alone the model trains, shopping bazaars, the actual thousands of animals and animal auctions and competitions... but for several hours on the last night of the two week event, everyone takes the kids for a last ride or a final elephant ear or turkey leg.

This is a short music video I shot at the local park with a pinhole body cap I got for $10 off of eBay in lieu of a lens. I have a sensor cleaning kit on the way now I had no idea the pinhole would accentuate the crud so much... 3200 ISO, 1/48 shutter speed 24fps. some dark frame subtraction as well but not sure how much it helped. Processed with MLV-App and then stitched together with FFmpeg. The pinhole gives a complete soft focus of everything. Thank you for watching. I can't stop watching it hahaha it is sort of like a dream and a better film than generally I should be capable of.

These are the very first clips I made with ML and my t5i at a local park, in order, as initial experiments. Some Dual ISO and I adjusted the contrast some, but no color grading or any other processing. Assembled as direct copies transport streams into a single file in mere seconds with ffmpeg at the command line. All clips were the full length either the camera stopped recording or I stopped it. All handheld and attempted stabilization with the strap. Some work better than others. YouTube clobbers a lot of it, and it is dark on my phone, but looks great on my TV. Was very glad to get both the cloud detail and shadow detail in places. Song is a Jason Isbell demo.
