<p><strong>Magic Lantern is onto something…
</strong>There have been a lot of posts lately about Magic Lantern’s breakthrough enabling RAW video recording on the Canon EOS 5D Mark III.</p>
<p>Below is an ISO test of the standard H.264 of the 5D3, and what the RAW video from <a href="http://blog.planet5d.com/vkm" target="_blank">Magic Lantern</a> looks like. This was done by <a href="http://www.dustintolman.com/" target="_blank">Dustin J Tolman</a>.</p>
<p>The results are pretty remarkable and easy to see, this software is still in its early stages and will probably get a lot better over the next few months.</p>

<p><strong>Workflow</strong>
An ISO test comparing Canons H264 compression vs Magic Lantern’s 14 Bit RAW hack.</p>
<p>• First I converted the RAW files with ML’s raw2dng.
• Next I dragged the files into Photoshop which opened up Adobe Camera Raw.
• I selected the first image and used the auto white balance setting which got rid of the heavy magenta tone.
• Then I synchronized the additional files, and exported them as 16bit tiff files.
• First I tried to use QuickTime 7 to create an image sequence, but it render the video with incorrect color.
• So instead of QT I ended up using Final Cut Pro X to create an image sequence to a ProRes 422 HQ output.</p>
