This is great news! Is there a way to get updates via RSS about new ML releases? I used to use https://builds.magiclantern.fm/jenkins/, but I see that's gone.

It was a great way to get releases about the cameras I use and nothing more.

Great source, lots to read there.

He really likes that 7D2, especially thermal dark current and pattern noise.  So in answer to Riaandw's original question: yes, there are significantly better choices than the 6D available.  He likes the R5 even more, but that's a larger jump in price ;)

Roger Clark has his analysis here: https://clarkvision.com/reviews/evaluation-canon-6d/index.html
QuoteBut even more impressive than the high signal and low read noise, is the far better control of pattern noise. The 6D sensor performs well ahead of the 1DX at low ISO, similar to that for the 1DX at moderate to high ISOs, but the 1DX pulls slightly ahead at very high ISOs. The pattern noise of the 6D is overall the 2nd lowest I have measured for any Canon camera (The Canon 7D Mark II is the lowest as of November, 2014). pattern noise limits the detail visible in shadows, and the ability to pull out low level detail or faint signal. Pattern noise is particularly visible to the human eye+brain system. It is very important to be as low as possible in low light photography as in night and astro photography.

Been quite some time since I've played with this, and don't even have a camera atm.

adtg_gui does have everything though.

Very Excited for where this goes. I'm sure its alot of hard work for you guys but I recently started getting back into photography and photo editing as a hobby. I made a small but significant upgrade from a T5(1200d) to a SL2(200d) and while I don't currently do video very often I would like to have the option for raw video. The current lack of audio is the only thing holding me back from installing this on my personal camera.

Keep up the good work. I plan on keeping this camera for a long time despite its age and limitations, its quite capable and Log video would make it even more so.  I'll be checking back periodically for updates

Perfect time to buy a 7D mark II

Quote from: hokinari on July 10, 2025, 02:39:37 PMHi Danne! Can't find anything on your bitbucket.org page. There is nothing, no firmware, latest or older ones. Where to find crop_rec_4k_mlv_snd_1x3_presets_2023Feb03.5D3123 or other versions that were stable?
Recompiled versions and noved to github. Check first post.

Raw Video Postprocessing / Re: MLV App - All in one MLV R...

This would also need a rewrite of the DNG export module - which should be possible, if you know how to do multi threading in standard C. Currently the module is not thread safe. You get kind of constructor (in C) and then you can export one frame at the time using the module.

Find the code in dng.c and dng.h
From MainWindow.cpp the export is triggered in startExportCdng. The call saveDngFrame(..) is not thread safe and can't be used multi threaded out of the box.

That sounds a sensible approach.  Would you consider porting it into mlvapp?  It would be nice to have all the good parts in one place.
