Depending on the build (current ones seem to be about 16 to the left / 3 up) for 5x (1:1) recording - would love to be able to "set" a custom crop mark so I can immediately go to this.  I shoot lots and lots of 1:1 crop video.  If I could define one so I could just hit the joystick once to toggle it, it'd be great.

Love you guys,
Shawn

I haven't read why it cannot just be the dead center in 5x mode.  I'm sure there's a good reason, but does anyone know off-hand?

LV focus box snap: added a preset for centering on the raw frame from x5 crop mode. 5D3 for now, not sure how portable is

You have made my day!

It's controlled by Canon code.

I'm sure it is - if I run non-hacked mode and hit the 5x multiplier (assuming I started off dead center) that's still dead center though, albeit not a mode you can record in.  I'm sure you guys will figure it out - think of the slow zoom in/out with a centered image in lieu of one going from left to right as you zoom in/out.

I'm sure it is

I was mistaking this for squashed mode in crop (reduced resolutions) mode.  Sorry for the misunderstanding.

This works perfectly by the way.

Tip from my use - leave global draw on, set your focus to use the "Center-Left" and hit the 5x zoom.  Once you start recording you can hit the info button again (leaving GD mode) and view your image for focusing purposes.
