You can read the full instructions on how to set it all up over on the EOSHD website. But they’ll need converted to another format like ProRes 422 LT if you want to work with them in Premiere. These can be dragged into DaVinci Resolve without transcoding, if you want to get straight into working with them. This mounts the card as a drive containing CinemaDNG folders. You need an app called MLVFS (for Windows and Mac) to pull the video files off the card and onto your computer. Issues that tend to plague Canon’s APS-C bodies for video. With the bad news out of the way, the good news is that it apparently seems to eliminate moire and softness issues.

There’s no mention of 30 frames per second, so whether it can’t quite handle the data rates, or the person writing the guide simply had their camera set to PAL format and didn’t test it, I’m not sure. For frame rates, you’re looking at 24 or 25 frames per second. Even this resolution was previously unheard off for a Canon crop DSLR with Magic Lantern. Even the standard 16:9 aspect ratio is too much for the card slot’s speed limit.Ģ.35:1, a common Cinemascope ratio, seems to be the most reliable, offering a resolution of 1728×736. And while you can record the full height of the sensor, the data rates don’t allow for it. Slightly narrower than 1080p at 1728 pixels wide. But, as mentioned, there are limitations.Īlthough the camera is capable of shooting full 1080p HD natively, when shooting CinemaDNG, you’re limited to 1.7K video.

This allows the 100D’s slower SD card slot to be able to keep up. And it’s all thanks to a new 10Bit and 12Bit compression engine. It requires an experimental version of Magic Lantern, available on this post in the Magic Lantern forums.
