My first raw video: Underwater marlin

[Kadzam]

Hi all,

I thought I would share my first raw video (ML on 5D2) with you and use this as a chance to thank the people behind ML. It's still a long way for me to get the workflow right but I already greatly appreciate the enhancements that it has allowed me:

Briefly my workflow has been: record 1856x1004 raw on 5D2, rawmagic to obtain DNGs, Grading in Lightroom 5, export to 16bit tifs, import of photo sequence in Photoshop CS6 for video rendering. Please don't hold back with tips if you have any.

what underwater housing did you use?

Hi,

I used an Aquatica housing with 6' standard dome.

I've been exploring a similar workflow although exporting 8 bit Tiff from Lightroom and opening in QuickTime 7 and saving as ProRes 422hq. Plan to take the camera underwater and test out our new Nauticam housing this week. Looking forward to shooting Raw underwater!

Wow! What a dive that must have been! How come you were so close to the surface? Did you just see the marlin and snorkel?

Sweet! Where did you shoot this?
