Re: potentially interesting 5D2/5D3 video news


Sorry to rain on the parade but this is not raw video.

The guy that runs EOSHD is not a reliable source of information about anything Canon related. He has a major axe to grind with Canon over percieved short comings of the 5D3 and the price of the 1D-C and EOS cinema cameras. He takes full advantage of every chance to bash Canon while still operating and making a living off of a website called EOS HD... Go figure

What this is doing is capturing the live view buffer as a 14-bit DNG still. With the 5D3 the image is 2080x1456 with garbage at the top, bottom, and left side of the frame. When cropped to the actual image pixels it is a 3:2 ratio image at 1933x1288. but, it is a raw image, and it can be captured without a shutter actuation so it may be great for time lapse.
