Any chance anyone can tell us where we can find the pre alpha build or is it not yet released?

DeafEyeJedi · « **Reply #476 on:** January 08, 2015, 02:45:27 AM »

I'm also curious to see how well it'll perform with a Sandisk 32gb extreme pro (90 MB/s)

Not publicly released, nikfreak sent it around to a few people, maybe they can share with you (I personally don't have it).

Probably the same as a 50MB/s card

DeafEyeJedi · « **Reply #478 on:** January 08, 2015, 03:38:19 AM »

I am aware of that -- just thought I'd ask since it doesn't hurt to try. Anyone care to share?

I also believe your 50 MB/s card will work just as well...

The pre alpha build is very buggy, I had a few crashes while I was filming the video.

I think the idea is to keep it on the down low till bugs are exterminated or people will complain.

DeafEyeJedi · « **Reply #480 on:** January 08, 2015, 04:25:48 AM »

I understand that and I'm one of the few that enjoys trouble-shooting to help narrow down the bugs.

Rwatkins · « **Reply #481 on:** January 08, 2015, 04:28:17 AM »

I've been using a sandisk extreme pro 32gb and I'm getting the same results with my 50mb/s cards: about 14 seconds of raw at 1856x790.

kubodhi · « **Reply #482 on:** January 08, 2015, 05:52:36 AM »

Most of the pre-alpha discussion has been about video. How's the rest of the ML functionality (intervalometer, focus assist, etc)?

DeafEyeJedi · « **Reply #483 on:** January 08, 2015, 05:56:11 AM »

How about Dual-ISO?

blueybuff · « **Reply #484 on:** January 08, 2015, 06:23:10 AM »

I'll go through the menu and let you guys what whats working/whats buggy/what doesn't work.

Zebras: Works fine
Focus Peak: Causes crash when disabling canon menu
Magic Zoom: Not working
Crop Marks: Works fine
Ghost Image: Not working
Spotometer: Works fine
False Color: Working fine
Histogram: Working fine
Waveform: Working fine
Vectorscope: Working fine

Bitrate: Works fine, no issues from what I experienced
REC Key: Works fine
Gradual Exposure: Not having success, I don't know how to use this feature properly though, may be user error
FPS Override: Not working from what I can tell, again may be user error
HDR Video: Not working
Vignetting: I don't have a lens with noticable vignetting that I can test it on
Image Fine Tuning: Works fine
Movie Crop Mode: Only for 600D?
Movie Tweaks: Works fine

Intervalometer: Works fine
Motion Detect: Works fine

NEXT PAGE (Skipping Display & Prefs, I don't have knowledge of this area)

Modules Page: Works fine

The future for this port looks bright!

70D has the 3X crop in video mode, just like the 600D.

@blueybuf in your youtube video it looks like you had ai servo on while recording raw? that would be SOOOOOOO awesome

did you try any lower resolution? what about clean hdmi?

oh man cant wait

cheers janosch

No AI, all manual (EDIT: I used manual but AI does work)

I tried 720p, seemed to be continuous.

I haven't tried it sorry!

As well they should. People will try it and complain when they soft brick their bodies. Best keep it under till alpha.

On the T4i the pre-alpha was rock solid for me, for what I was using it for, but I'm asking a lot more from the 70D as are most. Let's just back up our devs while they do what they can to bring ML to life for the 70D.

Ok enough for now! Please don't apply for early testing. I will keep you updated these days. The ratio of guys owning the "old fw revision" has been ~40%.

I'm too late. Mine was bought on Dec. 2013, would've qualified on the old fw revision.

Very good work nikfreak. I'll keep a close tab on this.

gerk.raisen · « **Reply #491 on:** January 08, 2015, 08:51:09 AM »

I'm pleased to announce that my Dec14 70D is now ML supercharged

Are there something specific feature that would be useful to be tested at first?
I have a little spare time today at 17.00 UTC

IRC chat also possible

auto focus works great when shooting RAW video!
as well as capture mov

Shot with the Canon 70D and Magic Lantern raw video in 1792х762
Len used: Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 DC HSM
Converted from raw and edit in After Effects

Ah sweet! Is focus peak working for you? It crashes for me.

camslide · « **Reply #495 on:** January 08, 2015, 09:21:01 AM »

Camera crash

UHHHH X-state so 720p RAW continous and AI servo works? that would be another x-mas

emvee · « **Reply #498 on:** January 08, 2015, 10:16:37 AM »

Sorry if this sounds like a newbie question, but just so I'm clear, is the reason that the 70D won't be able to record RAW video at 1080p because the SD controller can only write at around 40 mb/s and RAW requires faster writing speeds?

walter_schulz · « **Reply #499 on:** January 08, 2015, 10:26:49 AM »

Yes. ML RAW/MLV writes uncompressed data.
Write rate (Byte/s) = Vertical pixel/resolution * horizontal pixel/resolution * 14 * frame rate / 8

For 720p@24:
1280 x 720 x 14 x 24 / 8 = 38707200
about 37 MByte/s (24 is not 24 ...)

For 1080p@24:
1920 x 1080 x 14 x 24 /8 = 87091200
about 83 MByte/s

Actually you can record 1080p but only for very few frames.
