[solved] 60D silent pics DNG

[vertigopix]

Hi A1lex !

Maybe... I can't try before the next nightly.
I will try tomorrow !

[Bioskop.Inc]

I can enable silent burst but I think SD card interface in 60D is to slow...

That would be great Marekk!
I did a read/write test & was getting between 18&20 depending - so it should be fast enough to get the same results as the 600D, shouldn't it?

& Many thanks for doing this for us 60D users (it seems most of us can't code for shit).

I'm getting dead pixels as well...

Hello,

I'm still trying to understand...what is the maximum resolution we can get in DNG or also in RAW mode?

I tried the LV 5x tricks and the resolution increase but I can't get other step-up with 10x.

Is possible to obtain high resolution like with now deprecated 422 hi-res pic?

[a1ex]

The maximum resolution is the one you are getting.

You can try to implement a DNG hi-res mode, but it's not a priority for me. It will require hardcoding the alignment for every single camera - this is the hardest part.

[marekk]

hmmm.. so it's possible to get DNG with higher resolution ? .. it will be resized or 1:1 ?

[a1ex]

Just like with the old 422 - move the zoom box around and stitch the images.

I understand the need to have priorities, but I'll keep the old 422 implementation around for this purpose, and it'd be absolutely terrific if anyone could implement the matrix code for dng - the main use would be focus stacking of static scenes w/o killing the shutter.

So did a Rough & Dirty test with Silent Pics - certainly night & day really.
There's definitely a slight Magenta shift & a few dead pixels.

So what needs to be done to get the Raw video module working on the 60D?
I'm no coder (could give it a go, not entirely stupid), but i've got time on my hands this week!
A push in the right direction would be welcome

I think for full size zoomed dngs you would only have to move the zoom box up and down.

[a1ex]

And left and right.

Does going to the left do anything if you don't crop the recorded area?

[marekk]

ok, silent burst enabled.. pull request created, fresh autoexec.bin on page #1
.. but it saves only 47 images.. (I've got Sandisk Ultra 30MB/s 64GB)

And left and right.

With the 422 implementation there was the problem that you couldn't put the zoom box to the sides or Canon would reset it, so the matrix pic only covered a cropped area - would this be the same for dng matrix?

Still great to have, and all that on my good ol' 60d :-)) ... thank you so much!

Thanks for the Burst mode - really great!
On my Sandisk Extreme Pro 45MB/s 8gb, i got the following (in Movie mode):

1080 24p
71
53 (x5 crop)

720 50p
115
53 (x5 crop)

[a1ex]

71 frames? that's 3 seconds of video, already usable for some clips!

Yep, this is really amazing!
Got really excited by the 115, but the moire is horrible!

So does this mean that the 60D will be able to do continuous raw video at a reduced size?

[marekk]

I was trying to crop original frame from mv1080 mode to 1280x544 which is 720p 2,35 but it looks like DNG file has 3,9MB like original 1736x1156 and burst mode saves 47 files like mv1080 without slicing. It looks like memory is allocated for original frame size ...

[gerk.raisen]

If is only question of moving zoom box up down left right we can't simply try to script it?

[a1ex]

Possible, need to expose the API. Also would be nice to expose the large memory buffers, so you can stitch it in camera.

The matrix pic should be taken as fast as possible, because if *anything* changes in the picture (object move, exposure changes) the shot is a candidate for the trashcan - that is/was the main problem with the 422 implementation.

off topic sorry.

I'd like to suggest to add the short movie "The shot"  from Bioskop.Inc to ML Cinema, if Bioskop.Inc don't mind.
Really great. I like the photography, the acting and editing very much.

Thanks for the praise Wolf - its one that just slipped by unnoticed.

Question: I've noticed that adding the stubs for Raw_Rec module has got some people excited on other cameras - what does this mean exactly?

[seanturco]

Just a short video with a raw burst of 47 frames.

[Bioskop.Inc]

A compilation of Anamorphic clips - raw burst of 71 frames.
Still seems to be a bit of a magenta tint to some pics.
& sometimes get Pink Teared frames (not always, but every now & then).

Thanks ML for all the hard work!
Will wait to see if anyone enables the 60D to shoot raw video.

[marekk]

I'm trying to add raw_rec module for testing but my 60D is not loading ML when modules and tcc are enabled in Makefile.
