FilmMan Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 There could be hope for MJPEG with the DSLR's? Here's a post from Alex (the programming wizard). [u][b]There needs to be alot of work still[/b][/u]. There are [u][b]NO guarantees[/b][/u]. For viewing the MJPEG recording use VLC or mplayer. You'll notice a quality difference. :) Keep supporting these guys as who knows what may transpire? [b]Alex's post:[/b] [i]I think the best way is to re-program the DMA to write the jpegs in your own huge buffer (up to 192 MB if I remember well). This is how I plan to do it to get rid of frame skipping. For those who didn't see my tests: [url="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4124919/bleeding-edge/crop.avi"]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4124919/bleeding-edge/crop.avi[/url] - mjpeg recorded on 5d2 in crop mode (use mplayer or vlc) [url="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4124919/bleeding-edge/noncrop.mov"]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4124919/bleeding-edge/noncrop.mov[/url] - normal video (H.264) with the same lens and settings[/i] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgharding Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Is this only available in crop mode though? If so that's a bit annoying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germy1979 Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I can't believe the Mark ii is still kicking ass like this! I love that camera's image. I think it still looks better than the "C" offerings, the mark 3, the 1-DX, etc.. (I do like the C-100 though.) - buy a mosaic filter and this thing rocks. The problem is it has to do all of that awesome full-frame 5D2 stuff, with the same poor little processor my T2I has..:( if only it had a better processor.
