nightly builds - RAW supported on 5Dmkii?

[dmerrill]

Hello,
I am considering doing a thorough test of the RAW recording ability on the new build and I want to get a confirmation that this will work on the 5D mkii. I don't need long record times, and I dont mind the 2.35 ratio but I just need a clear YES that it will work on the mkii.
Thanks!

Yes.

Great! What are your thoughts on your experience with it?

Its amazing to be able to use a RAW stills photographer workflow (Camera RAW and Bridge, basically) to work your video files, I think. It saves me a lot of time in a NLE doing color correction and cleaning up compressed footage. now its all taken care of, just opening up a single frame in Camera RAW and doing that, synching the rest. Its not full HD yet, and there's a problem with aliasing and moire (nothing new, really, but more pronounced when you get more detail). Also, its not reliable. I get many corrupted file writes, but some of them work. Its still early days.

So I have just tried to install the new build and I can't get it to work. This is my first time using this so I am hoping that you may be able to guide me on this.

I have the canon firmware up to date
I installed ML 2.3 onto my camera
I downloaded the latest build from the nightly forum and put it on the card. It runs but I can not find the RAW feature. Am I missing something?

Excellent, thank you! I was able to get RAW working. Now time for testing.
Thanks again!
