Since I get twice as many frames with small JPG quality instead of Raw enabled in Camera (5D II), couldn't you set this automatically when shooting raw video? Then back to whatever was selected when out of Raw rec mode. Maybe you could even exploit the small JPG address space also (hey you guys are genious!). The reason for this is I'd rather not forget at some point I have small JPG set in the camera and I'm on a photo job.

I do not like the idea of automatically setting this. I  am working with a 5D3 and I've tried setting my image quality to sRaw. Normally(with raw being selected) my buffer doesn't go beyond 1* and I can record until I manually stop recording(1080p raw). When I selected sraw though, I only got one second of recording before it automatically stopped on me.

I vote no for 6D/5d3/600D.. this will lower my amount of memory. There is no middle ground for this, all cameras its something else.. on EOS-M its Ljpeg.
