Is normal recording stable in these RAW builds?

[russellalboroto]

Hey, I'm new here and I want to try out the RAW on my 5D Mark II. I have some gigs in the next few weeks and I was wondering if the normal recording mode (not RAW) in these new builds were stable? Would these new builds be stable enough to use for normal recording? Sorry if this is a dumb question

Yes, the RAW is stable now. 99% I´d say. I did shoot hours of test footage and did not have a problem. MLV with audio is 95% stable .. shot one week of footage, several hours a day and had a few errors, but only lost one complete take, the rest was just stopped takes which the camera tells you. Do your own tests. Do you need sound? Then MLV is worth using it. No sound needed? You´ll love RAW!

The Feb 16th MLV nighty is rock solid no problems with green or pink frames as most people are getting on the latest nightly for 5D2.
I use it for Paid Work and still has (1872x####) all new builds start at (1856x####). link below

The HDMI is 100% solid for Backup Hard drive recorder of EVF/monitor, this build has never crashed of lockup.
I trust this build 100% its Never Let me down once!

For Raw without Audio the Oct 24th 2013 built is still the fastest and very stable with large frame sizes (1880x1058) continuous
