I feel I'm really progressing with ML and love it to bits. My latest project is to understand HDR video. I found a very good tutorial here:
http://ae.tutsplus.com/tutorials/production/a-simple-way-to-shoot-hdr-video-footage-using-magic-lantern/

But at one point the tutorial explains that you need to shoot at 60fps, I believe that's not possible on a 5D2, so is there a way round this or is this really only a feature available for those with 60D's.

To fix it, you will have to shoot in 60fps, compromising resolution down to 720p. Does it really matter? No, not really. 720p is usually more than enough,

Many Thanks :( (without ML)  ;D(with ML)

You will have to interpolate frames to make up for it. Also avoid fast pans or shots with a lot of motion.

Ok I get that, for someone who's never opened After Effects before it's a bit bewildering. I did get the film strip duplicated but couldn't figure out how to trim the first frame.
I guess it's a bit pointless with a 5D2 because you can't shoot anything moving with any speed.

I'll keep faffing about.
