Just got a 5D Mk II and Magic Lantern'ed it! Now I can get 5.6K RAW timelapses and 4K RAW both at 14 Bit! Bought it for $250, and it fits right at home with my BMPCC 4K and my Red Scarlet MX.

Also, on an unrelated note, saw that diploma! EMAW!!

Great video, very clear and concise explanation! I just got a Canon EOS Rebel T5i (in the Americas, aka Kiss X7i in Japan or 700D in the rest of the world) from a friend for my camera collection and realized that I can run Magic Lantern which is totally awesome! I am an instant fan of that camera and will be even more fun with ML loaded on it. I am obsessed with 2010s era cameras, especially DSLRs, and ML breathes new life into an aging, yet still very capable, camera!! Cheers from Seattle, WA

Respect for answering people's questions even long after the video's been out!
Found it while being frustrated by my out of focus 1200d photographs, impossible to see what's in focus on that tiny screen.

I've been using ML for like a year or so, but you just taught me about Magic Zoom and HOLY THIS IS AMAZING IT MAKES EVERYTHING SO MUCH EASIER!

Thank you so much!

good info. I wonder does Magic Lantern record videos with all-intra or long gop? all-intra would be better. is there a setting to choose either?

Dude, great video. I've got a 6D to snag for $350 but would like to know if the audio source/mic jack with ML can be selectable from "microphone" to "line level". I want to completely bypass the camera preamp and to use line level from a high quality outboard sound source like I can my Fuji XS10 or XT4. In those audio menus you can select between microphone and line level for the mic jack. Thanks man.

Nice ML video. I used it on my 5D3. I see the KSU diploma. I went to WSU and worked at KU. Where are you now?

[SomosAUM]

Great video! But can I use external wireless microphone using the magic lanter? In normal Canom settling I had to change to manual in order to use the mic. Does magic lantern allows the same?

Hi Corey I recently installed magic lantern with the Latest Build (2018-07-02 22:19 and used a sandisk extreme pro 32gb speed up to 95mb per sec when I record the screen is moving super slow . I followed your settings video but I don't see the volume meters at the top or the same screen as the build you have . Thanks in advance for any help you can provide .

Great presentationt here. Learned a lot. Magic Lantern Features seem to vary from camera to camera. On my Canon 6D there's a menu item that allows you to simply turn off the 30 minute recording limit, which makes the 6D a good streaming/podcast camera. . But that feature does not apply to other Canon models.

So the software is on the sd card. So if i dont want it i can just usa an other sd and get my normal canon os back?

[Jamsville]

Nice Real Book in the background! Thanks for the video!

I use an intervalometer for time lapse photos. Canon doesn't even include basic tools like that with 1, 000.00 camera bodies. Any idea why?

Sir, mere 6d mark II pe 1.1.6 Firmware install nahi ho paraha hai. Koi suggest dijiye ? Main Magic Lantern install karna chahta hu

[notactuallywill]

How do I take decent video on the EOS Rebel T7? Is it usable for video, or should I get a new camera? What about sound?

[Mystiskmusli]

Hi, do you know if the 1200D can record in a higher resolution with the Magic Lantern software?

[giftysworld]

I get raw detect error. Dont know what to do!😩

Does ML give Shutter Angle options on the 5D? Thank you
