This is a brief excerpt from DSLRfilmNOOB
A few days ago the Magic Lantern team announced the breakthrough of RAW video capture using the Canon 5d Mark III. The first announcement only offered the ability to record about 60 frames in DNG format. Although interesting, 2 seconds of shooting time isn’t very practical. A day later they announced a workaround that would allow data to bypass all of the processing and encoding which allows for much longer files. This allows the information to be written to the CF card in a .raw file which would be processed into DNG or Mjpeg on a computer in post. This new method requires a CF card with very high write speeds (80MB/s or above) and a lot of storage space (128GB will give you about 15 minutes).
I’ve been watching this unfold for a few days now and I must say that this is very interesting. The hack is still very early in it’s development and it seems there are still a lot of things to sort out.
So far it appears that audio isn’t captured during the process which is unfortunate but understandable. Also the workflow looks to be a bit on the complex side of things. …
