Brighton | 5D Mark II 3K raw with Magic Lantern

[@AdliberateVideoProduction]

Love your patience, answering the same questions over and over again. Come on folks look down the comments for your answers and let them take more of this amazing footage.

[@photokhichamna90]

2024 and nothing beats this video

[@Tom-ts5qd]

the nostalgia hits

[@spookyghostship]

Geez Louise I was just looking for a video test for a 5D mkii, didn’t know I was gonna stumble upon an iconic piece of film. This is downright beautiful.

[@camserpell]

I clicked on the video thinking it was 5d iii ML video, watched it, totally blown away, then as I clicked off I noticed 5d ii. I got out of my seat and literally went off my head! This is THE best video I have seen quality wise and colour wise on KZbin no questions asked. You are so talented and this should have millions of views. Congratulations!!

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Thanks so much!!!

[@chef_maruf]

You wrote exactly those words that came in my mind the minute this video started. My question is is this video just out of the camera with ML installed? I'm buying it tomorrow. This is pure gold!

@@IliaSibiryakov Also thank you for melting my heart! Bless you. Please keep creating.

[@IliaSibiryakov]

@@chef_maruf Thanks once again! It is raw footage shot in ML crop mode, processed in MLV App, not just out of the camera. Good luck with your 5D2. And thanks again. I recently got another 5D mk 2 (mine had died), hope to make more videos soon.

[@vertujoe2886]

you pushed 5d2 to its absolute max! every still is desktop-worthy congrats dude!

[@Micha_Swiatek_Videographer]

and this is camera from 2008.... 5d mk2 the LEGEND

[@jippalippa]

Buying this camera in 2012 for me was an investment, as it is fullframe and it can be updated with custom software to look very good today. The only limitation is the lack of 4K, but for a 2008 machine it would be a bit too much to ask

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Upscaled 3K from a 5D2 with magic lantern is still going to be better than a lot of cameras' internal 4K, as you must process the raw files on a computer yourself, with actual raw conversion software, while the other cameras will process the image internally at high speed, throwing away a lot of dynamic range and detail.

[@scottgmaclean]

Thanks so much for this... the footage was absolutely stellar, colours were beautiful and very lovely compositions (the webs prism-ing light, the bubbles drifting across the sunset. I have a 5D mkii and have been searching for samples of ML... this has been the best by far!

[@DurOxZurO]

stunning work, really love your compositions. This camera with ML raw video still got it!

[@JulienTaillez]

i love it ! I too use a lot ML RAW on a 5D 3. it’s so powerfull. Everytime i see some youtuber with a sony I’m like jealous but then i watch some footages shot in ML ❤️

[@Kevinmadefilms]

I feel the same way, but then go right back to shooting RAW on mine too. I keep looking at Panasonic's 10 bit cameras, but then I remember that they're getting closer to bringing ML to 5D 4. Really hope DPAF can be used when shooting raw video

[@amerikrekordfilmmaker6230]

The best of C5D Mii with ML on KZbin. Awasome .

[@1960ceramic]

This video is amazing, and reminds me why I love it too. I am using Magic lantern as well, and enjoy the detail and colour that this old camera body is capable of. I am going to Iceland tomorrow for a 12 day self-drive tour of the Ring Road and hope to get some awesome footage like you have here! Thanks so much for sharing this work of art!

Why does yours look so much better than the others on KZbin? All other videos of 5D Mark II ML raw look so... unsharp and bland. This looks amazing.

[@IliaSibiryakov]

because I'm using the new experimental 3K crop mode, most videos are shot in full sensor 1080p which can very often look unsharp

[@Radiakt]

you might have made me going into canon after being a sony addict!!! i love you

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Wow thank you! I love you too. Which Canon are you considering getting?

[@Radiakt]

Ilia Sibiryakov since canon fullframes costs quite much i think ill get a 5d ii ... one question tho how long can you record with ml raw on your canon?

[@IliaSibiryakov]

How long it can record depends on shooting mode... In normal 16:9 14 bit 24fps (full sensor, approximately 1080p) I can get almost continous recording, it stops at about 7 minutes, and using 12 bit allows it to record until the card is full (10 bit uses even less space on the card, but the quality is a bit worse in the shadows). With the resolution I used in this video - 2880x1080 (2.67:1 aspect ratio) I could record less than 10 seconds in 14 bit, so I used 12 bit which gave me about 12-16 seconds, and in 10 bit it records up to 27 seconds. Luckily with magic lantern you can adjust the aspect ratio and the resolution in 16 pixel increments, so you can always find a resolution that gives enough recording time for you. And there may be more magic lantern developments in the future, so it is possible the 5D2 will get lossless compression like the 5D3 has, that would allow recording for a lot longer, or even continously at resolutions it was not possible at before. One thing you should definitely get to shoot raw is a fast card, good ones are made by Lexar, Komputerbay and Sandisk, the speed should be 1000x or 1066x, and as many GB as you can get. I use a 128GB Komputerbay 1066x and a 32GB Lexar 1066x. The magic lantern forum is also a good place to ask questions, and here is a useful tool that predicts recording time for different cameras and resolutions: rawcalculator.netlify.com/calculator_desktop

[@Radiakt]

"Where its blury on one side" I thought there is something there. At first it looked like the middle is blurry... This looks Fuuuken Guuud! Just bought 5dmk2. Trying out raw. I am also going for cheap weird lenses for now. Some Pentacon ones. Wich cost 30euros each in Spain here... And they do frekin well actualy. Some of them come with Film camera attached :D Still for a 30 :D Also. Brighton :D And its 2018 :D wow... I have to research the 5d mk2 higher resolution shooting... Any advice ?

[@yuetingcheng2520]

Beautiful images and colours! How did you grade it? Did you use any particular LUT or do anything unusual?

[@IliaSibiryakov]

I promise it's not as beautiful as you think. I used MLV app 1.2, but you can achieve identical results by setting "Don't Use Camera Matrix" in current versions of MLV App. EDIT: Also I think I used MLV App's "Filter" with "Film FJ" at varying strength on quite a lot of shots.

[@onurhankeskin]

Incredible!

[@PPP1986]

delicious absolutely

[@crystalsharkie]

Looks like the crop factor really emphasizes that chromatic aberration on the lens. Good to know!

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Which shots in particular? My Pentax Takumar 135mm is pretty broken internally, so it may be the shots from that lens.

[@skidder652003]

can I ask what Magic Lantern does? I've just got a mk 2 for video and wondered what it does? Thanks!

[@IliaSibiryakov]

It is a computer program that runs on the camera, its purpose is to add more features. It lets you shoot video in raw, which is a feature I used to make this video.

[@rafarodrigues1216]

Anyone else got the vibes from the Before trilogy? Lovely.

Hi this is the absolutly best footage I have ever seen from a 5d mk ii. I bought a 5D mk ii recently for not much and now I'm trying to get rid of the moirée with magic lantern. So far I didn't find the right ML experimental version that gives me the crop of the sensor. Could you guide me to a link where I can find a stable version that has crop mode?

[@IliaSibiryakov]

[@ddrek87]

You made other newer cameras look bad! Awesome job! Did you install a moire / aliasing filter onto your camera?

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Thanks!!! I did not use a moire filter. As this 3k mode takes an image right from the middle of the sensor without downscaling in any way, no moire is created.

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Well, actually if you look closely at the first shot you will see a small amount of moire on the grey dome, but it is rarely a problem.

[@ddrek87]

Thanks for the reply. Upload more! This video of yours really reminds me a lot of Philip Blooms' style of shooting. I have subscribed! Btw do check out Northmen on Vimeo, especially The Birth of a weapon series. Most of their videos is shot RAW on 5d mk2 with a VAF mod + Nikkor lenses.

[@IliaSibiryakov]

You are right, I am definitely inspired by Philip Bloom 😜 I do hope to upload more some time soon though I haven't had time to shoot much. And I checked out the vimeo series you mentioned, it is very cinematic and quite enjoyable to watch. Thanks for the suggestion

[@ddrek87]

Awesome! Glad you enjoyed them as much as I did. Keep up the great work! Will be looking forward to your next upload!

[@VicVegaTW]

Well done! How difficult was it to install magic lantern? Can you advise any good tutorials to look out for?

[@IliaSibiryakov]

It's always been easy, just copy the magic lantern files to the card and run firmware update from the menu. To uninstall you can format the card in camera or run firmware update again.

[@VicVegaTW]

Ilia Sibiryakov thank you!

[@khlymore]

Teach me the secrets oh great master lol!!! nice footage so i can basically shoot a music video with this thing almost at the level of bonapetit katy perry? or not? still gonna need old arri or red camera? i think blackmagic 6k does a great job, i seen music videos with that came and is great, something in the color is a bit off but can be fix if you are good color grading, i prefer zcam colors over blackmagic, but canon this canon!! im not suprised to know that some hollywood movies where shot with this thing.

Bought a 5d2 almost 2 years ago to be able to get images like this. Color grading is excellent. Watching the video on my HD TV and on my phone. Wondering how many times someone asked you if this was taken on iPhone?

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Colour grading is mostly simple MLV App tweaks plus some usage of the Film FJ filter. Also no one has asked if this was shot on iPhone. Why would they? I know iPhones have good video for a phone, but it's quite a different look...

[@tobeywarwick2821]

10/10 Beautiful Brighton. Remarkable shots. 5D2 can only shoot 14bit not 12bit as a digic 4 ?

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Digic 4 cameras can shoot 12 and 10 bit just fine. I shot this at 12 bit: much longer recording time and no difference in quality. 10 bit reduces quality noticably.

[@tobeywarwick2821]

@@IliaSibiryakov oh. thank you. That's what I have read so far. I use 6D1 and planned to give 5D2 a go coz of the slow card writing speed. now that looks even more promising. cheers.

[@IliaSibiryakov]

@@tobeywarwick2821 pretty sure you can overclock the card writing to get like 70MB/s on the 6D1. And recently they found a way to gain even a few more MB/s on top of that: www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=26443.0 (try the custom build in the first post) Edit: someone in that thread is getting 92MB/s on a 6D, more than I ever got on the 5D2!

[@tobeywarwick2821]

Really appreciated your time and effort addressing my queries here. 5D2 probably arrived tomorrow will give it ago. Heard of sd oc but didn't know it would be that much faster lol. 6D1 lacks Av video mode but just realized that Av mode in 5D2 alters iso as well hence useless and have to go back to M mode. What's the best quality shooting in crop like yours or FF? I'm aiming FF 1920x800 60fps 2.39:1 Resolve image stabilizer upscaled to 4k60or25 2.39:1 on KZbin.

[@IliaSibiryakov]

@@tobeywarwick2821 Yeah I only shoot in M mode, the other modes aren't good for video on this camera. In FF mode, both the 5D2 and 6D1 record in slightly-below 1080p resolution (something like 1856x1044), but it upscales without a problem. The best quality modes on both cameras are the 1:1 crop modes that record in higher resolution, like what I used in this video, but they must be used on a tripod to avoid rolling shutter, so FF mode is best for handheld. A 5D3 is the best option if you can get your hands on one.

[@alessio55555]

Hello, very good video. Can you say what's magic lantern should I install to record to this resolution? I saw your link at magic lantern experimental version.

[@kuyselmo]

I'm a canon video shooter since 2010 and never looked back. In 2020 I'm torn between sony and lumix as a way going up to hybrid and have 10bit to 14bit environment mainly for client works and to finally retiring my trusty old 5dmkii. But I don't want to lose full frame look and the color science canon is giving me, your video makes me stay for good on canon system with magic lantern in it. Question: how big is the file size of a 10sec 2.5k or 3k clip? And what ML firmware version is used in this video? Thank you for the amazing work!

[@IliaSibiryakov]

10 seconds of 3K video is almost a gigabyte. It's very time consuming to work with. And the dynamic range on Canon cameras is bad, so it's extremely easy to get noisy results. Plus the magic lantern software is hard to use. I honestly can't recommend this to anyone (unless you already have the camera). It is mostly suffering and pain. The forum thread is linked in the description, it has download links. Download the latest 3008x1080 build.

[@IliaSibiryakov]

Sorry for the slow reply. I never had any breakage from magic lantern. And most of the time people who say magic lantern broke their camera, it actually broke for other reasons. The main developer a1ex helps most people out if they have issues. Basically magic lantern is pretty safe, but they cannot guarantee anything.
