I made this yesterday with some boring video I shot on my walk to breakfast.

I don't really do video much so please be gentle:
Private Video on Vimeo Small | Large

You can download the original file if you really want to pixel-peep!  I hope to shoot some more interesting subjects this weekend.  No more comparisons though, not wasting my time on stock Canon video anymore!

*calm down internet, it's a joke :)

Did you do any processing to the DNG files ? it would be nice if they had the same WB/saturation for comparison since ive been hearing some talk saying that the RAW video is sharper than what comes standard with the camera

I did about 5 seconds of processing on the dng’s, and so did LR since it’s impossible to not process a raw file?  Also, what is the point of shooting raw if you’re not going to process it?

There are plenty of comparisons much better than mine that are much more “calibrated”. 

I thought about the white balance, but I couldn’t get the .dng’s to look like the the out-of-camera video…so I just corrected the white balance how I would a still.

If you try to correct the white balance on the Canon ALL-I it falls apart pretty quickly.
