There’s currently a black band on the far right in this mode but that can be chopped off in post. It is still an actual resolution increase on the current video mode because the detail is so finely resolved in raw mode and so soft in the current H.264 1080p.ģ.5K mode (a 1:1 crop of the sensor) is lovely, but the frame sizes are just too huge (9MB) for an SD card to handle at frame rates high enough for motion pictures so don’t hold your breath for it! Also as you can see from the video in this mode jello is a big issue with handheld footage!Īs you can see from the framing in the picture above, 3.5K crop mode samples just over half the sensor horizontally and 1320 pixels vertically. To get the data rate low enough for the Compact Flash or SD card to handle vertical resolution needs to be cropped from 1285 pixels to 720, giving you an anamorphic style 2.66:1 aspect ratio – 1920 x 720. I actually use the term 2K raw for brevity’s sake – the horizontal resolution is actually 19 and the aspect ratio is 3:2 not the cinema standard for 2K. Image quality wise no matter what the resolution in DNG, it is a HUGE step up from the current H.264 video mode or HDMI in every way – sharpness, detail, dynamic range, grain, colour, roll off, smooth gradation, you name it. (Note: the 3.5K crop mode is downscaled to 1928 in this shot) Here’s what the video quality looks like in the DNG video modes at 30fps.
These past days I’ve been trying to make myself useful to Alex at Magic Lantern, testing the DNG raw video recording on the 5D Mark III with a nightly build of Magic Lantern.
