Reddeercity thanks for getting the conversation started with the upscale possibility of Magic Lantern gift of RAW video, but to think of the 5D Mark II ML RAW firmware ability as only use for B-Roll kind of sucks. So let's begin with why not use Magic Lantern's gift of RAW as main film production stock? Why not use the the Rawness DNG to upscale at least to 2K, the reports of the Data from the DNG holds up? Why not use the Canon 5D Mark II for motion picture projects, I ask these questions keeping in mind that the fast race car scene in the beginning of Ironman 2 was shot with the Canon 5D Mark II with no fear of Rolling Shutters, the full 6th season finale of House was shot Exclusively with the 5D Mark II (it was a visually broad canvas presentation), the feature film ACT OF VALOR was shot exclusively with the 5D Mark II for 12 million dollars then grossing 81 million dollars and many more worthy Canon 5D Mark II professional projects. All those example of professional film work was accomplish with the Canon limitation firmware, now even if the limitation of Magic Lantern Firmware in RAW giving the Mark III 1920x1080 continuous RAW and the Mark II only shooting 1880x850 continuous RAW but Magic Lantern firmware setting option is very professional. Final question, Isn't the Magic Lantern 5D Mark II firmware settings and RAW capabilities industry standard?

Don't get me wrong, I think the 5D Mark ii Is As good if not Better in some cases then Red, Sony etc..
At 2K you would not tell the difference. As Long as you Film in a way to show off the 5D2 Strong points,
& limit fast pans, & no complexes pattern from a distance etc...
But the Fact remains that In larger productions 5D mark ii will not get any Chances to prove it self @ 14bits
like all the Big Name players,
Why would you if you were a Production company, Have a choice between
a 1DC @ 4K compressed with a tried and true Workflow & a 5D Mark ii Magic Lantern Raw Record with a
Not so easily work flow in development , (i know the work flow will get better)
But Big productions will use the 5D mark 2 or 3 as "B" roll all day long

What Magic Lantern has done is put the power of RAW into the Hands of Small Video Production Company
So we can compete with the larger Production Company s without Breaking the Bank!
edit:
I will Kept using the 5d mark 2 in all projects, I was very very interested in buy a new Body like a 1DC,
but that can wait for now. But i will be on the lookout for any used 5d2 or 5d3 .
