The MLVFS just updated few weeks ago to handle to compressed raw 3,5K continous recording is possibile if you are using higher ISO values (lower dynamic range, less steps in the highlights, more compression possibile) with the 5D3 such as ISO800+ So the efficiency of the compression level is flexible. The downside: the live view is unusable right now if you use compression, and the recording could stop if the image information exceeds the card's max write rate. The strange thing is with 10 bit the compression is not that effective. It can be combined with 12 bit to get even smaller file sizes (or higher continous resolutions). It's possibile to use 14 bit raw mode with 54% compression rate which is more effective then the 10 bit mode alone. The secret of the 5D3 4K is not just the 10/12 bit mode but the new lossless raw compression feature. In crop mode all of the cameras are working in 10/12bit, they just need a little black level adjustment with exiftool (or maybe this is solved with the last MLV DUMP?) On Digic 4 cameras the 10bit/12bit raw mode is corrupted in full sensor mode, every other image is pink. reddeercity in ml forums is working hard to solve this problem with his 5D2. My regards to all the Magic Lantern devs!! Main builds and ports in progress at Magic Lantern:Įxperiments including 10bit/12bit raw and 4K raw crop mode: Updated for 2017 Magic Lantern camera capabilities at EOSHD - Ĭreating a sticky thread for this as it's one of my favourite topics. This thread is just to compliment and contribute to the main magic lantern site.įollowing 70D progress is a priority for me as it's the only one with both Dual Pixel AF and articulated screen.
