Shot my first RAW wedding video: Canon 5D Mark III

[Khoi]

Actually, make that my first wedding video period.

It was a pretty big gamble shooting RAW for such an important event, but I took the risk, and I think the payoff was worth it. It also helped that my client was a family friend and was willing to let me try it out despite the risks, but I did have a backup camera (Canon T2i) just in case.

Not 100% of the shots are RAW, but I'd say about 80% of the clips. The clips with audio were not shot on RAW as I didn't have a dedicated audio recorder at the time, and the reception clips towards the end weren't RAW because I actually ran out of memory on my CF cards, so I had to shoot with the SD cards. I think another 64 GB CF card would have been enough to shoot the entire day in RAW.

I ended up with about 190 GBs of RAW footage on my CF cards (Komputer Bay 128 GB 1050x and 64 GB 1000x).

Lenses used: Canon 24-105mm L and Sigma 50mm f/1.4
