Crop mood - WYSIWYG Edition (650D / 700D / EOS M / 100D)

[Ernani]

Oh you'll see about reponsiveness

Any news about the crowd funding yet? We're amped up! (Iknow I am)

[theBilalFakhouri]

Yes it's usefull for making a DCP or when we mix rushes from another camera in 24fps with 23.976 fps without sound shift.

I see, well, it won't be real 24.000 FPS, but it will be in 24.00X to 24.0XX range depending on the preset (more accurately, on FPS Timers).

It will probably start in less than 36 hours
Will let you know once it's online!

Thank you. The closest is better than nothing.

[Grognard]

Limited FRTP in 3K preset is possible, currently it would be limited to 2868 width and the remaining 204 pixels will be black.

Before you will find a new magic trick... and I'm sure you will I wonder if the missing data is necessary on the right part of the screen or if it can also be on the left part and if they are a way to switch between the two screens each frame or toggling with info button.

leBilalFakhouri, thank you for your impressive work. Are you going to develop it on the 70 d?

[theBilalFakhouri]

Thank you. The closest is better than nothing.

Will try to implement an option to round FPS as close as possible to 24.000 FPS, it should be an easy task, why not.

Thanks, I didn't make a try to balance the missing part of frame in both left and right sides yet it could be possible.
Switching the preview each frame more likely will cause corrupted frames while recording, still not quite sure yet.

Will take a further look in future!

leBilalFakhouri, thank you for your impressive work. Are you going to develop it on the 70 d?

Thanks, 70D has same preview implementation as in 5D3 and 6D which is different from entry-level models. Current preview stuff can't be ported to 5D3 / 70D / 6D.
More work will be needed for these models, if we could control the preview on 5D3 that would mean 70D will benefit from same research, also 6D.

Already answered the current state of my preview work on 5D3. I might document the initial findings for 5D3 on the forum in future in case if someone would help.

Or another alternative could be is to not have 204 black pixels on one side but rather have 102 black pixels on either side. Since most people focus on things in center of frame anyway and also it would look less jarring.

You can take such ideas and take time and release such things as "add ons" for your crop mood build. especially if u come up with more improvements and more ideas and still keep this build as perfect as possible.

Thank you Bilal, we will keep an eye out for the crowfunding announcement!

Yes, that's exactly what I meant. I will dig into it in future and will check its possibility to happen.
Even if it wasn't possible I will make a limited FRTP for 3K preset in future releases (it will still be way better than Canon cropped preview, even with a black bar).

Yes, that's what I was aiming for in first place , in addition when the source code get realased, anyone will be able to contribute too.
Also, the future improvements from my side will be for free as long as it don't take me hundreds of hours of work or a lot of effort.

About the crowdfunding, maybe someone will not agree, but why not impose an upper limit on the money offered by each individual person, perhaps around 15/20 dollars?

I don't want to be misunderstood, I certainly don't intend to devalue the work done by Bilal, which I consider extraordinary and incredibly superior to what he asks in return.
I only believe that crowdfunding is good when there is broad participation, in which many people can and are in some way encouraged (if not "forced") to contribute.

By the way, last time, when I saw the subscription, it was already closed thanks to a few generous users. This time I really want to contribute.

@BatchGordon

Thanks!

Anyone can donate as much as he can, there are no lower or upper limits . . what's the problem with that?
Any amount is welcome.

If this update is not making every Magic Lantern user that can afford it to contribute, I don't know what will! 

[Mattia]

Just donated even if I'm not an Eos M user anymore, I sincerely admire your work, Bilal! and I also hope you'll futher develop ML for 5d3
