RAW Video on 5D Mark III using Magic Lantern

It is awesome editing raw DNG files recorded from the 5D Mark III. Here is the video I created to show off the advantages of shooting RAW. 




I have provided a list of stuff you would need to install Magic Lantern with RAW support on your 5D Mark III. The installation really isn't too difficult but it has a few steps.

Pre Production List

  • 5D Mark III (Firmware 1.1.3)
  • Also works for 5D Mark II, 50D, 6D,  60D, 600D (Not 1080)
  • CF Card formatted as ExFAT (90MB/s min)
    • 23.97p 1080, 82.9MB/s
    • 59.94p 720, 129.8MB/s (Haven't tested yet)
    • 29.97p 1080. 103.6MB/s (Haven't tested yet)
    • 16GB ≈ 3min, 32GB ≈ 6min, 64GB ≈ 12 min, 128GB ≈ 24min
  • CF Card Reader (Faster the better for pulling off large files)
  • CF Card Preparation Programs

Post Production List

  • CF Card Reader
  • raw2dng (to unpack the .RAW file out of the camera to DNG)
  • Adobe Camera RAW or Aperture (to color grade your images)
  • Adobe After Effects (To render image sequence to video for editing)
