You say that ML is free, but it would be nice if people would consider a donation for the untold hours of hard work that went into the various releases.

@ArmaniRomeo 6 лет назад

very true!

@John_Ridley 6 лет назад

How do I donate without Bitcoin? I don't see any way to do so.

@DangerousWordsPodcast 5 лет назад

There are SO many programmers working on ML that the crowdsourcing of programming pretty much negates monetary donation... It is the only place where socialism actually works and doesn't create slavery... LOL

Thanks Toby for the helpful review of Magic Lantern. I've heard about it several times before but now I'm tempted to try it.

@TehObLiVioUs 9 лет назад

I'm gonna make my overlay be a call of duty HUD so it looks like im shooting people when im shooting people (with a camera)

@intaro 5 лет назад

Apparently late to the party, but I still want to thank you. I've always thought there could be a custom firmware that would fix an issue I was having (live stream and using a DSLR but always having an issue of this white box showing and couldn't disable in settings.) It took a while but finally seeing you explain that magic lantern could disable it was basically all i needed! great video!

@matrouz1 9 лет назад

Focus Peaking is A great feature, i use it alongside the magic zoom so i can get very sharp focus.

@patrickgamble9014 3 года назад

Movie Restart for me is the best feature for ML - with older canon DSLRs there is a limit well below 30minutes - around 12min as soon as the video file is 4GB the recording will stop which is a huge pain but now the Movie ON feature will avoid missing a wedding ceremony or interview or speech except for a few seconds every 12 minutes

@ArcanePath360 2 года назад

It is a good feature. I wish there was a way of turning off the live view while it's recording to save battery power. I can't find a way to do that so I just set the LCD backlight to min.

@MauFerrusca 9 лет назад

Your Magic Zoom explanation is brilliant. Thanks!

@andrewcaddle5180 8 лет назад

Thanks so much for taking the time to make this information available.

@markkrukowski5728 9 лет назад

That time lapse feature is so useful for me. :D thanks for letting us know these things!

@monkehp 6 лет назад

The number one Magic Lantern feature for me is focus peaking. This opens up the world of manual lenses like Samyang, which are optically amazing and easier on the pocket. Not to mention the exciting world of vintage lenses. Magic Lantern alone has made me pause on my decision to switch to Sony altogether.

@michaelprzewrocki4195 Год назад

blablabla better informing about news.

@mavfan1 9 лет назад

I have an EOS M that I didn't use too much but I now use it often with old lenses and adapters because with ML the focus peaking makes manual focusing easy.

@photorectoby 9 лет назад

Yes - awesome use.

@RickScheibner 9 лет назад

Thanks for putting this together. I'm going to use my 5DmkII in the Columbia River Gorge later this week and needed a quick refresher on ML. I do like the forced fps feature for some of my time lapse videos.

@mohsinjessa8951 9 лет назад

As always very high quality material. Thanks Toby. I was hoping you'd cover the focus stacking feature of ML. I'm just getting my feet wet into macro photography on a shoe string budget. Have you covered that in another video? Thanks.

@mikeliszemitis8946 Месяц назад

Worth to watch! Thanks!

@tclarke971 8 лет назад

Great tips. Thanks for all your help.

@ArcanePath360 2 года назад

The thing about intervalometers that you buy is that they can use burst shooting by holding it down under the "long" settings for however many seconds. So for example: After a 47 minute delay, hold down the button for 8 seconds for a burst, then repeat every 2 minutes until however many pics are taken or until the card is full.

@yepee9 8 лет назад

I use magic lantern on my old 550d (t2i) and its awesome, it consume more battery but you can get one extra battery and enjoy all the cool features. My favorite features are : 1. Intervalometer 2. Bracketing For HDR 3. Trap focus (it makes easier to do macro or any other hand held manual focusing shot) 4. Focus Peaking (which most canon cameras dont have) 5. Auto ETTR( To get the best image quality and tonal range from your camera) 6. Option to use camera proximity sensor as trigger 7. Raw RGB histogram with dynamic range display 8. Dual ISO can do wonders

@molekulaTV 7 лет назад

Great tuto! I just bought a T5i for funny price and I found out that this camera is a very very good friend I am suprised how much back light situation it can take (which I love to work with especially if the air is even steamy to help that) ...so amazing how much the T5i can take of any crative back lighting , I just made footages look like Bladerunner seriously using a simle EF S 18-55 lens. I love it!!!! Definitely gonna install M.L. on it thanks because in raw this camera is a very serious beast on the field for the current price that is 400 euros but worth 2000 with some clever tweaking.

@NoFear4XJs 9 лет назад

Thank you for the video, I have the T2i and using it with the microscope adapter but it is useless in movie mode for darkfield microscopy due to the FPS being capped at 30. Your video has inspired me to try the magic lantern to get the fps down to a manageable level, darkfeild microscopy is truly amazing and insightful I hope it works :]

@buzbeto 7 лет назад

Thanks for this overview. You did a great job explaining things. I will definitely try it out. Cheers, from St.Louis.

@gordyandellen 9 лет назад

Cheers for that Toby, I've never been brave enough until now but I've just installed this onto my 650D with no problems! Thanks again for the walkthrough, maybe do an advanced one next ! Love the shows, good stuff!

@photorectoby 9 лет назад

Thanks Gordon. I need to get advanced before I make that video :) But it is on my list.

@gordyandellen 9 лет назад

I know what you mean, I looked at that menu and have no idea what half of it does!

@RobMoreno335 7 лет назад

Wow, great videos! How do you effectively use the "golden ratio" when shooting/setting up video?

@iamfyrus 4 года назад

Using it with 1100D/Rebel T3/EOS X5 in 2019

@prashantnz 4 года назад

Thanks heaps. Appreciated.

@sigmaoctantis_nz 9 лет назад

Tried Magic lantern for still shooting on my 650D because I really wanted the magic zoom window but I was disappointed with it's performance. Maybe my camera just isn't good enough to handle it but it was slow, the magic zoom window flickered while evaluating settings for a photo and the replacement for the exposure level indicator was horribly slow at responding to changes in light. It would have been better if you could just use the default exposure level indicator as it works perfectly fine. I couldn't force it to under/over expose using the Av+/- feature in the Magic lantern live view either which is quite important for certain situations. Live view's brightness wouldn't match the actual brightness with my manual focus lens attached either making it quite useless for me overall. A better solution would be to get Canon to add an option for a zoom window into the default live view interface. It's a neat idea and makes precise focusing much easier.

@MrBzmn 9 лет назад

Thanks Dude!

@nathanielng5574 9 лет назад

Magic Lantern is a great piece of software! My favourite features are focus peaking and the ability to manually set the Kelvin temperature for the white balance. The one feature I would most like to see is exposure compensation in Manual+Auto ISO mode.

@photorectoby 9 лет назад

Nathaniel Ng Yes - the Kelvin WB is a nice feature that higher end cameras already have and ML brings it to the masses :) I agree with that second feature request - very helpful.

@ch33psk8 9 лет назад

Great brief Toby, would really appreciate a detailed walk through for my T4i.. (I guess you're a busy man) haven't had the courage to up the firmware yet. Wasn't sure if ML had included this model. It seems fairly safe and there are loads of features that would be very handy to improve the skills of many a proud canon enthusiast.

@photorectoby 9 лет назад

ch33psk8 Thanks and yes I will do more detailed install soon.

@LeviBrinkerhoff 8 лет назад

Thank you for the video! I just installed ML on my t5i and your videos were the first ones I checked out to learn how to use it. I do have a question though, ML is saying that my camera is 49*C after about 20 minutes of shooting. What temperatures should start having me concerned? Thanks!

@roruelas 8 лет назад

Thnks, nice video.

@rodneyjackson192 8 лет назад

yes im interested in using it, didnt know of it until i watrched your segment. i want to know more about the focusing and magnification.

@superchic4u 8 лет назад

This was a good video! I learned a lot thank you 😀 Do you have a more in depth video on the magic lantern features, I'm really curious about how using it will improve the tones on the video because I'm trying to choose what camera to buy that has really good video quality and picture quality and I watched a RU-vid video comparing the video quality of the Mark III vs Sony a7s and the tone quality was similar only after using the magic lantern but before using that the video quality on the mark iii seemed much worse than the A7S so I'm trying to learn more about this now before I choose what to buy, I'm also trying to decide between the 5dsr, I'm trying to learn through RU-vid about which video quality and focusing for my busy and running kiddos is best. Do you know of a video on RU-vid comparing these? Do you have a video comparing these? I like your videos thank you so much I'll be subscribing to your channel now and telling my friends about you 😀 Have a blessed day I really hope to hear back from you or anyone that could lead me to the right videos, I learn the best through videos

@DirtyDayMix 8 лет назад

Hi, nice vids i love them all :D . Im considering buying a canon t5 (the canon t5i its out of my range this days) my question is with magic lantern and the canon t5 can i reach a professional level of cinematic videos? thanks.

@stewartgresswell5869 9 лет назад

Thanks Toby. All sound pretty straight forward. My camera is still under warrant, if it needs to go in for repair at a later date for a unrelated issue (after using ML) will Canon know that ML has been used on the camera at some stage?

@Orbachroey 9 лет назад

Hi Toby, I have a question for regarding the fps in ML. could you increase the fps as well (make slow motion)? thanks for your video!!

@erinedrysdale 9 лет назад

I haven't explored Magic Lantern very much, but I love using it for Kelvin white balance on my T4i. :)

@photorectoby 9 лет назад

erindrys true - Kelvin balance is nice. I would love to know how Canon feels that free open source software adds features that they charge $1000 of bucks for ;)

@AjarnMatt 8 лет назад

When doing timelapse, does ML give you a little preview movie using the TL frames that you can view in-camera before you download the files? Thanks for this vid, too.

@TheRadziu 9 лет назад

Hey! I just found out about ML mod, but now i'm wondering about one feature. I'm getting 700D(Rebel T5i) really soon. It can shoot 720p 60fps, but it only shoots 29.97fps on 1080p. Can I override FPS to 60 in 1080p recording using Magic Lantern? (using memory card fast enough, like 40mb/s at least)

@PlanetRuncorn 9 лет назад

Thanks for a great tutiorial , but i have a question, will the motion detection option in the intervalometer option work in video mode ?

@headpacked8916 8 лет назад

Is there an Alpha build for the 700d? Because I followed your tutorial on how to install ML and I downloaded the Nightly build. Its working perfectly though so no worries. Just want to know how much of a risk I took lol

@cinefotobahia2361 8 лет назад

also, for photography and magic zoom focusing, will it only appear on lcd display or does it appear inside the small viewfinder that is normally used for photography? thanks

@BensCoffeeRants 5 лет назад

There's Updated firmware from Canon for the 5D iii which enables raw video out from HDMI (or clean HDMI out, whatever that means?).

@Sirsilent05 9 лет назад

I have magic lantern running on my 700D but I don't have the focus confirm option in the magic zoom settings. Is that option only available on higher end models like the 5D?

@DarioBarrosFilmmaker 8 лет назад

@janreirodriguez1138 9 лет назад

Hi thank you for your helpful video. Is it possible to have live audio monitoring In a canon t3i or t5i with magic lantern?

@mchazlitt 9 лет назад

Yes, T5i ( 700D ) has Raw Video

@jubalclement 4 года назад

Does magic lantern allows t5i to output clean HDMI ?

@alecbosse6425 3 года назад

@@jubalclement I know your comment is a couple months old, but yes ML will give you an option for clean HDMI out.

@JulioCesarManzoJr 8 лет назад

I'm currently choosing between two cameras. In your opinion would you prefer a t6i without Magic Lantern (it hasn't even started development yet) or to t5i with Magic Lantern?

@Kizzay 8 лет назад

Does the magic lantern also works on the Canon 750d? Can't find any information on the internet if it works on this camera..

@graboos 9 лет назад

I think you didn't understood correctly what focus features are for. These are options useful when you want to take a bunch of photos to stack focus (mostly in macro). You can set how far your focus should be shifted and with what step. Camera will then automatically shoot those pictures each with focus a little bit further. I was using it in 60D now I have 6D and I am a little scared to install ML on that.

@photorectoby 9 лет назад

Oh Focus stacking? I have done that with DSLR controller, you are right, I didn't realize that was what that feature did.

@nicklarochelle7905 8 лет назад

Is ML for video work specifically or can it be used for still photographs as well.

@hadishwelde3557 8 лет назад

HI toby most of them setting in canon mark 3 i cant found in my camera so how can you download?

@dengor45hd48 6 лет назад

I would be interested in focus peaking, and I love zebra pattern for setting EV, no more over-exposures, I've been using it on Panasonic, and now have ordered a Canon 77D, will it work on that?

@425gabe 3 года назад

Question: On the 5d mark iii with ML running is the time limit for RAW video capture also 29 minutes? Assuming you are shooting 1080p raw video.

@beckgraben 8 лет назад

Cool video, I can not find your first two options on my Canon 5D Mark ii. I am running the latest ML Frimware. I do not see the overlay options (Grid Display or Crop Marks) or the Magic Zoom. Thank you in advance!

@steveherried9064 7 лет назад

I have a Canon 6D that doesn't have a 3x3 cropmark overlay. Do you know where I can get one that will work with Magic Lantern? Magic Lantern tells you to go to a certain link but it hasn't worked for quite sometime.

@seamusdemora5598 9 лет назад

I just learned of Magic Lantern today. I found it while searching for some performance benchmarks on the EOS 5Diii. It looks x-useful, and I plan to spend some more time looking into it. In the meantime, I am hoping someone can provide a pointer to some measurements of the write speed for the SD channel in the EOS 5Diii. I'm interested in photo performance, not video. And I know the buffer makes a huge difference until it gets full. In fact, that's what I want to know: how many RAW frames will the camera dump to the SD card on a sustained basis? I've seen postings that it's 20 MBytes/sec, but you know how that is... I'd like to see some "hard data". Thanks, this is great work!

@colintunez 8 лет назад

can one install magic lantern directly into the canon 5dmk 3 and only use one sd card to record or must MGL be on one particular card and then the other card for recording files ? which Compact flash card do you advice for this? and can one shoot at 60p in 4k on MGL ?

@socaminister 6 лет назад

do you know if there is a way to have the output on ml to be 1080p? since canon outputs their hdmi to 1080i by default and my field monitor works best with 1080p, i didnt know if there was a way to change that output signal? any solutions come to mind? i am currently using a t5i

@njatoandrianarison6433 4 года назад

I just wanna use my canon 6D as a good webcam with clean HDMI out in the same time being able to use the camera normally. Can ML handle that?

@rmvideo420 5 лет назад

What fiture available in 600d in video ? I heard some issue if we put out the sd card when red lamp is on we must wait it to off or we have our camera dead ever Right or not ?

@krunolonjak8668 4 года назад

@cinefotobahia2361 8 лет назад

in order to have magic zoom window appear and dissapear using half shutter, do i need electronic comunication between lens and camera? Another words, say i use a vintage manual pentax lens on a canon 50d , do i need an pentax k to eos adapter that has focus confirmation etc?

@Mixednutsnz 9 лет назад

HI Toby. Hey I dont suppose ML adds in focus points. I have the 6D with only the 11 focus points and 1 cross type. I love the camera but the lack of FP is starting to bother me.

@cameraman655 6 лет назад

Great video, but I have one really STUPID question. Dose the firmware live on the SD card, meaning that I have to sacrifice my sole SD slot, leaving me with only an CF slot for images? Upon furthers research, seems that ML does not work with the 7DMKII, IDMK1V (or any 1D for that matter), I guess at this point the question is moot.
