Zeek: "Longtime listener, first time caller..." I like your stuff, I watch all of your EOS-M videos. In the past 2-3 years you've inspired me to purchase 2 EOSM's and play around with different lenses, adapters & settings, having fun so far. I tested the firmware from this video and I noticed that all of the presets, except 1080p, (when using a lens with auto-focus) result in corrupt previews and/or frozen images, so far I've tested with: EF-M 50mm, EF-S 18-135mm, EFS-10-18mm with Viltrox EF-EOS M adapter AND Viltrox EF-EOS 0.71x Speed Booster (which may be part of the problem since I see you use Metabones Speed Booster) and they all experience the same issues. I saw a previous comment where you suggested searching around or "shutter bug", do you have more info? Turning off auto-focus seems to work for now and I rarely use AF so it's not a big deal. Thanks for what you do and greetings from New York, NY, US.

Hi Zeek. It’s been a while since I haven’t checked out your channel. I have some catching up to do. So many new things! Nice new intro it’s funky :). Something I that I noticed, do you know if the 10bit & 12bit modes are lossless or uncompressed? I actually want to test a new post workflow and I would need the uncompressed format.

[@ZeekEOSZ]

Hey, they are lossless, however there is no difference between the uncompressed apart from size.

[@cheapfm]

Zeek I know they are both similar. It’s just that I believe ffmpeg can read video straight from mlv files coming out of the camera when it’s uncompressed. I find the workflow to be faster if I can preview the clips using ffmpeg si I was just wondering how to use the old uncompressed way.

Hello Zeek! I'm interested to get an Eos M but I have a few question.. You say the crop mode of the 5K frtp mode is 2x.. Is it two times from full frame 35mm? Which mean the crop factor is pretty much the same as a micro 4/3 cameras? Or is it 2 times from canon APSC, which means the crop factor from 35mm ff is 3.2x? Second question: did the 5K frtp mode have a 4:3 aspect ratio? I want to emulate Super 8 film cameras,, ability to crop in-camera would be very useful..

Hey Zeek, I've got a small question. In de 1080p mode, the resolution of the footage is 1736 x 976. What do you do with this format? What i mean by that it is a bit of a odd format. Do you scale it down to HD format -> 1280 x 720 or do you scale it up to Full HD 1920 x 1080 and use black bars on your footage? If you scale it up to FUll HD, are you not getting "quality" issues?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

Cheers! 5K FRTP is continuous. Just enable 10 bit instead of bitdepth turned to off. The quickest and probably the easiest way to set this mode is to tap the EOS M Liveview, then select the 5K FRTP Preset. From there just change your Aspect Ratio if required.

Honestly, both are really really good! Both are really special for photography, I would easily go with either no issue there. The EOS M would have the upper hand with DOF and Lowlight, the GH1 with the Flip screen. GH1 Crop could help for wildlife though. So, depends what your needs are, both will take tremendous photos.

[@soloalpinist]

Nice work as always Zeek. I have a few questions: In 5K FRTP Mode what are the 4 "arrows in boxes" symbols that appear in the LCD for? Also... I have a constant flicker that appears in the lower arrow/box symbol. I didn't notice a flicker in yours during your video. Any ideas what it is or how to stop it?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

The 4 arrows in boxes is purely Canon's implementation, quite difficult to remove, if even possible. If you are set to 16:9, there should be little Flicker. In Tab two, you can enable Aspect Ratio overlays for 16:9, 2.35:1 etc. The lower arrow, may still have little Flicker. But that's okay, things should get better for the M.

Hello Zeek! Thank you so much for putting this together. It’s really helpful! I recently got the M inspired by you but im noticing heavy moire on the edges of objects and people.

Do you have any solutions for that?

[@matthewermatinger279]

You may have already explained in a previous video but could you summarize when you like to use each recording mode between 5K FRTP, 2.5K and 2.8K?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

I use 2.5K/2.8K pretty much always. If I need a wider field of view, more light or shallower depth of field, then I'll make a switch. 5K FRTP is like a standard mode with reduced aliasing compared to 1080 mode, so it's like a cleaner alternative although it has a 2x crop in comparison to the 1.6x crop in the 1080 mode.

In your opinion, is 100 the native ISO for this camera? Tried several settings in various outdoors conditions - and noise quickly crops up when raising sensitivity - at 800 it's already quite bad. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, or the sensor has two base ISOs, like the BlackMagic or Sonys? Great videos btw - love your filming on all cameras, not just the EOS M!

[@ZeekEOSZ]

Yes ISO 100 is the best on this Camera. Using a Fast Aperture lens + Speedbooster will help a tone. Also, denoiser in Davinci or other software when needed in specific clips.

[@r4mps]

Check the review on dxomark.com ; basicly they show that the sensor has the same dynamic range at 100 and 160 iso, after that it goes downhill ( graphs ) but the color sensitivity is best only at iso 100.

Hey just a little question. First of all thanks for all the work you're putting into educating us on the Magic Lantern build. I really appreciate your content and your footage too. So big thanks you! About my question... when I'm using this FRTP mod I've got some nasty little red and white dots all over my picture, actually trhis also happen in the 2.5k mod as well. I remeber, before you could add a whole bunch of files, the Focus pixel map files into MLV app to fix that issue, and then export to your prefer format. Anyways when using Davinci resolve DNG raw, you can't benefit from that anymore (at least I think). So I'm kinda stuck with some footage with thos little red/white dots and can't really use them. Do you know what I mean by those? Thanks a lot for your help, if you have any time!

so... I want to make sure I'm understanding correctly since I now have my EOS M and have been following all instructions. The 1080 mode allows for the standard crop but one gets aliasing and artifacts. All other modes reduce this but you have 5x crop. Is that right? How have you been setting up your shoots? Have you been standing like, 20 feet away this whole time? 🤔😅

[@ZeekEOSZ]

it's not 5x crop. Every crop mode has it's own crop, e.g. 5K FRTP has a 2x Crop, 2.8K has a 2.96x Crop, 2.5K has a 3.1x Crop or so etc... I use wide lenses like Canon 10-18mm with the speedbooster, or the Canon 18-135mm, Canon FD 28/35mm, Zeiss 20mm etc...

@@ZeekEOSZ I could but unfortunately, the 1080 mode is broken for external monitor support. So, I can't use it even if it didn't have aliasing and artifacts. The M2 does 1080 mode and seems stable enough though. Good thing too since that's the only option! lol 2.5k mode is 3.1x crop which is extremely limiting. My 22mm stm becomes 68mm :( But ML is unstable with the 22mm and kit lens so it seems it's not supported? I'll have to test more. Even the wide-angle of the kit lens would become 46.5mm but the aperture is so slow that I worry how useful it would be but the brightest of days. I just tested the kit lens to be sure and it looks like auto-focus is broken. More issues to figure out. Finally, I can't get more than a couple of seconds (max) recording no matter the lens and settings. (Yes, I got your recommended SD card) I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Looks like another hour of research and experimenting is in order Yikes. I'm taking over the comments. Sorry all! But I hope this info is helpful for you too :D

False colour is in tab 2. You can Change LV presets in tab 7, enable flase colour in LV 1, press info, then disable it in LV 2. I talked about this in my 3rd last EOS M Settings video, the Red EOS M.

I got a quick question about the 1080p & 5k frtp I suffer from heavy aliasing and color noise on hard edges that make the footage look really bad. I can only use the 2.5k - 3k modes to get less aliasing. How come your 1080p looks so good? My work flow: - I import the footage to MLV - Select Alexa Log-C & Alexa Wide Gamut RGB presets - add sharpening to 50 (but even when I don't footage is still bad). - export to prores 4444 or DNG Lossless - Apply Alexa Log-C luts from davinci. Is there some camera setting or MLV settings that I should use to alleviate the problem?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

I haven't shot with 1080 mode in ages. Shooting wide open helps. Nowadays, I shoot mainly with the 2.5K FRTP Mode which I go through in my latest video. I use wide lenses like 10-17mm range, some with IS. The Kit lens 15-45 IS, 18-55mm IS are good lenses with stabilisation and help when shooting high resolution modes.

[@jpr-tech]

@@ZeekEOSZ Thanks for the quick response! Yeah, I kind of figure that out myself. That's why all of my recent videos were all shot in 2.5k-2.8k. I get great results in those resolutions. Thanks for the suggestion of using wide angle lenses. I have an a eye on the 11-22mm stm for the compactness, light weight and native support. I feel like shelling out money on an adapter + a lens = about the same $$$ for a used 11-22mm stm ($270 here in Japan). I got the 15-45mm for $70 and the eos m body for $100. I don't want to spend too much on it right now. So, for now I'll just stick with tight shots. 😉 If you wouldn't mind taking a little time and checking out the results I got so far. I would appreciate a lot.

[@ZeekEOSZ]

@@jpr-tech I still have the 11-22 IS. The thing is you won't notice much of a difference between the 11-22 and 15-45, as they look very similar, if not the same. The 11mm of course helps get that wider fov, but optics look close to identical. I watched your video btw, great cinematic shots! Looks like you're getting the hang of it. Keep it up!

[@jpr-tech]

@@ZeekEOSZ Thanks for the valuable info! So 2.5k at 11mm is not much wider than the 15mm at 2.5k?! I don't care much about sharpness, I care more about Focus View. For example, if I wanted to capture a large building. Maybe you are right... 14mm wider might not be much wider. Perhaps a manual lens like a Samyang 12mmf2 is a better option? But then again 12mm vs 15mm... I think I see your point! BTW, have you shot with a fisheye lens such as the 7artisans 8mm or 10mm??? I wonder if this might sell the UWL view...

hey Zeek I got heavy flickering in dual iso mode (but only on a few clips only) is it because of low shutterspeed? or what ? I cannot determine what is the cause of this flicker. I sometimes shoot at very dark conditions (after the sunset) and I go 1/30s and dual iso mode (usually iso 100-800) or 400-1600 to get the very details in the beautiful sky and clouds. Unfortunatelly it's like 4 out of 10 dual iso clips on my shooting day have flickering. strangely not all have it even thou they where shoot at presumably the same settings. I was also considering if 10bit or 12bit might be involved in this. I noticed this flicker occur before export even if I skip 1 frame after another in preview window. - Dark levels seems are the same in all frames (some people suggested exifinfotool)

[@ZeekEOSZ]

I'd avoid dual iso. It needs more development with dual iso timing to avoid colour shift etc..

[@rocheuro]

@@ZeekEOSZ i have to agree. It is worth sometimes as dualiso has less noise and often greater dr. But sadily its not reliable and you cannot easly.review the footage to check if flicker occured. I will stick to normal 2.5/ 2.8k mode. I also found that 1080p mode mcm also have some color difference and its not as clean as 2.5 or 2.8k modes that I most often use. Especially.in low light. Maybe I need some more practise or use 14bit instead of 12. All in all thanks for the tip Zeek!

[@ZeekEOSZ]

You need a good fast lens and more importantly expose correctly. You can't save everything in the frame. If your try to save the highlights you may damage the shadows. Sometimes you need to make sacrifices due to the dynamic range of the camera. Best practice is to check your false colour, histogram or waveform monitor. Use zebras 100% and check exposure value is between 1-0.1

I can recommend the 3K Raw Mode which shoots exactly 18fps, or the 5K FLV Mode which also shoots around that fps. If you want 4:3, then the 2.5K Mode set to 4:3. 10/14 bit is fine. The lens will make the difference in the overall look. But it's great stuff 👌

I can’t find the presets, I can’t find crop mode, I can’t find any setting for 4k or 5k, I don’t see any way to change to 14 bit. I downloaded the newest nightly build and my firmware is 2.02. Am I using the wrong build or firmware? Also when I record raw it says frame skipping and stops but I think I can fix that with a faster sd card. I just need to figure out how to find the crop mode and all the settings that you have and then I’ll be great!

[@ZeekEOSZ]

My latest settings are in my channel trailer. Builds can be downloaded from the video description, not the ML Website 😎👍

[@southstarbeats9730]

@@ZeekEOSZ thanks man! I got it setup and after grading and adjusting in post I see why the eos m is so amazing and I see why you own a few lol. Goodbye m50 lol

[@ZeekEOSZ]

@@southstarbeats9730 Glad you've gotten the hang of it, well done!

[@beaudanner]

Zeek you might know the answer. My raw option on my ML menu keeps disappearing. I'm using the build you linked to for the eos m2. I know that I need to enable movie crop mode but it will never stay on 🤔 I've looked all over Google but can't find the answer. Ideas?? Thanks as always!

[@ZeekEOSZ]

It should appear when you're in the movie icon. Check the modules and see if it has been enabled. Restart camera and check again. Send me a snapshot if you can.

[@beaudanner]

@@ZeekEOSZ I totally found it finally 10 minutes after sending the message. Thanks! I tried to find my message and delete it but YT isn't really set up as a text message platform. haha. For anyone reading: Zeek's solution is correct. Your camera may have wiped the module settings. Go under the "modules" tab. enable crop_rec, mvl_lite, mvl_snd, raw_twk. Other potential modules to enable: dual_iso, mlv_play, sd_uhs. Zeek, what is your PayPal? Every time you answer a question of mine I'm buying you a coffee. Really. The whole reason I have an EOS M2 (and M in the mail from eBay) is because of you 👍🏼 👍🏼 PS: I even met a girl today when she came up to me and asked me about my camera and small rig :) We might be photo/vid buddies!

[@ZeekEOSZ]

@@beaudanner Haha, lol glad it 's working now!! The M has to be my favourite cam honestly, despite all the new cameras I've had experience with. The S5 is a good handy Tool to promote the M ;) Cool story man! These cams can really take amazing photos! My next vid will have Macro photography samples from the M & FD Lenses. Cheers!

[@beaudanner]

@@ZeekEOSZ speaking of... I have a lot of trouble switching back to photo mode from video. I tried to do it when in Manhattan today and the camera totally failed :/ What are you doing? Just switching cards away from ML?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

@@beaudanner Disable raw video, restart, disable cropode restart. Then take photos. 👍

[@edwardsmya6201]

Hi Zeek, thanks for the video. I installed ML, in 1080p I get a pink pixel. It is not present when ML is not used, for example in photo mode. Have you had this issue? Thanks!

[@ZeekEOSZ]

You mean like a dropped frame? It shouldn't happen in 1080 mode, you must be set up to 30fps, otherwise your card isn't fast enough.

[@edwardsmya6201]

@@ZeekEOSZ it looks like a dead pixel, little pink dot that appears on the LCD (and is also present in all the recorded footage in the same place throughout) when Magic Lantern is installed, and is not present when the camera works in its original (no ML) configuration.

[@ZeekEOSZ]

@@edwardsmya6201 could you possibly screenshot to my Instagram/Facebook? I've never experienced this before. Maybe in MLV App applying the Fix Dead Pixel will hopefully help 👍

[@edwardsmya6201]

@@ZeekEOSZ Hi, thank you for your reply. The MLV dead pixel fixes this. I will send you a screenshot and a photo of the lcd while in ML mode.

[@MrChinosochi]

Hi Zeek. Do you have any new ML settings on 5d mark2?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

I don't, might consider it soon, I'll have to see 😎👍

[@JonathanDana]

Do you know what the crop factor is for the 5K FRPT mode? It's quite a bit more than normal 1080 right?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

Yep. About 2x crop vs 1.6x👍

[@rickifyful]

With ML, can you output the video with the better sensor readout to an HDMI recorder such as Atomos Ninja? Or is this just possible with an SD card?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

Only with SD Card ;)

[@MomentsinItaly]

Thanks!

[@lfcruzsierra]

My Canon 24mm FD has this weird spider web dust effect showing on the monitor....It doesn't show with any other lens or with the speedbooster without lens only with this lens. I asked my ebay seller and he says that dust doesn't show on the LCD screen....is that true?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

It's most likely the lens if it doesn't show with any other lens. Take a good look at the glass.

[@lfcruzsierra]

@@ZeekEOSZ I would agree....but he keeps saying that anyone that knows about photography KNOWS that dust specs doen't show on the LCD monitor.....but why wouldn't they show? Unless he's lying. Anything you put on front of the mirror element should show on the screen. Right?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

I’m looking at a new imac soon, can’t wait to start shooting more canon eos raw! Been struggling lately with my MacBook 💻 how you doing zeek?! Looking forward to that monitor review video, I’m itching to buy it, could I get the model number 😂🥺🙌

[@ZeekEOSZ]

Great to hear, love the iMac way more than the MacBook Pro I had. I bought a new budget Windows Laptop for travel, I'll test it out with ML and see how it runs. I've been using the Fotga A50T recently as my other one hasn't come in yet. I had no brand, I believe it's just called F5, got it for peanuts, don't know how well it will work or if it will even work considering it's a mystery monitor lol...it should come in this week. 🎥🔥🔥

[@LouisLuzuka]

Zeek hmm would you recommend the fotga? I know you said it had some limitations, but I’d rather have something than nothing 😅 and for your Imac what are the things you can’t live without, remind me of the specs you chose again my friend! Thanks for your help

[@ZeekEOSZ]

@@LouisLuzuka Yes I would 👌 My iMac is the 2017 i7 AMD Radeon 550 Pro. For my iMac, I can't live without a Keyboard & Mouse 😆😅😄 I use Logic X, FCPX, DaVinci & MLV Resolve, main Apps I use. 👏

It's your SD card. SanDisk Extreme PRO 170MB/s is the recommended one. Also I have a later M Settings video in the channel 😎👍

Hi. I can record maybe 1 second in 2.5k and then it skips frames and stops. What am I doing wrong?

Nevermind. I figured it out. I was not using a fast enough SD card. Thank you SO MUCH for your channel.

[@dlarva77]

The 5K FRTP RAW Mode is cropped? only the cropped modes are alias free?

[@ZeekEOSZ]

Uncropped mode is 1.6x, 5K FRTP is 2x Crop. Pretty much all the crop modes or 1x1/1x3 are aliasing free or close too.

[@dlarva77]

@@ZeekEOSZ Thanks, I'm planning to buy the canon m, but I'm worried about the crop factor right now I only have one Sony E mount kit lens that as I understand I can't adapt to the canon m, a vintage fd 50mm 1.4 canon lens with a Fd to sony speed booster and 2 52 and 55 mm Russian lenses M42 and L39 with sony adapters, all my lenses are 35mm full frame so I have crop on my APC sensor, if I can't adapt my sony speed booster to canon I'm afraid that I will have problems to archive a usable experience introducing additional crop to the mix, I need to read more about magic lantern your videos are a great help but still I don't understand how much crop I will have on all this different modes and the downsides that each mode have on image quality vs the limited lenses I have.
