Canon Eos M Crop Mood - IT WORKS! 

I’ve donated my EOS M2 to Bilal - really deserves all the praise, also Danne and Alex of course. Looks like I can finally shoot 16:9 aspect ratio in 5K and use my anamorphic lenses. Brilliant !

Just finished that music vid session, I cant believe how reliable this new build was! I literally set it and forgot it, turned the camera on and off probably 10 times, recorded perfectly each time, didn't have to fiddle with any settings, my shutter stayed consistent, no crashing or pink frames. Basically I hit record and it did what it was supposed to like a real camera for once!

This is beyond incredible! Been an EOS M user since 2012. Just tested and it is such an improvement over any previous Magic Lantern releases. Love the redesign.

Mate, I'm gonna be bold and say to newbies to MLV: Watch this video first then watch Bilal's for deep dive. This video gives the simplest explanation of various modes and resolutions to get started quickly. Thank you for making and sharing this. Brilliant really.

Awesome! Thanks Collin and a huge thanks to Bilal, Danne and Alex. Remarkable work from all the devs. Bravo!

Wow this is so much better, I just had so much glitching and freezing before I almost sold my EOS M. This is amazing!

Many, many thanks for this. It solved my problems. All of you associated with the eosm community are great !!.

Thanks man for this walkthrough, even though I've got my M running, your explanation of features helps in understand the overall process, hats off to you. And l most say you are a great speaker, the world's roll of your tongue with great flow👍

Really love this video format, the crispness

IMPORTANT - FOLLOW BILAL'S VIDEO FOR INSTALLATION - I GLOSSED OVER IT! Also NEVER under-expose footage. Test the limits and join the group for more tips on longer record times in higher bit-rate. I also use the NEW 170MB/s card not the old 95MB/s version hence the slower write speed. Focus Pixel maps are available now - bitbucket.org/bilal_fakhouri/crop-mood-builds/downloads/

I finally did it...I put crop mood on the m lite😅 and I love it so far. I watched Bilals Video which allowed me to get all the basics done and I watched yours which you really helped with extending my recording time 🙌

It is a fantastic build, very well done

Excellent video - Thank you - Just subscribed

Video quality out the jump amazing. I see the hardwork in this video. Wow 👏

Thanks for the video, Cole. Helped me with a few issues I was having. Cheers!

Thx for the good information!!

Nice video! Thanks for fantastic the divulgation work, cheers!

You have put it all into words in a very comprehensive fashion. Even though I've had EOS M since over a year now with the SD card to install ML but I'm glad that I waited until now to install Magic Lantern Crop Mood..

Very clear. Definitely some necessary info here that's missing from Bilal's video.

My jaw is on the floor with this!! Can't wait to get stuck into it. The old ML problems I had, left my camera in the draw. I'll have to dig it out now.

Best build ever!

Thanks. Great walkthrough. Interested to hear your Crop Mood experience with the Lite as well.

Hello, I am just starting to use the crop mod and it is a great job and a pleasure to use. You have to keep in mind that this is only the first version with the first fixes and it already works great. Greetings from Poland :) Michal Berlinski/MBFeniks :)

Very informative! 👌👍

thank u so much for that 1080p frozen frame fix man, i didn't know about it

I've been testing it and it works great. i'm shooting 1x3 4.4k and I'm going to be taking my camera out to do some sports video shooting next weekend.

Thanks always collin "Kill canon gui" that really come in handy!

Respect 🙏🔥🔥

Cole's Explanation ♥️♥️♥️

i hope we can get stable recording without kill global draw on so we can shoot focus transition shot reliably

its amazing, came out just in time, i did a music video shoot tonight with crop mood 1080 mode and shot a couple hours worth of footage tonight.

For anyone that can not record continuously for some reason with the Sandisk Extreme Pro 95 mb/s card. Try changing the AccessMode from SDR104 to SDR50 from the SD Overlock submenu by pressing the play button. After changing it to SDR 50, restart the camera to let it apply the new setting. Then you should be good to go for continuous recording! I hope this helped!

I have an issue, where in photo mode (dial set on photo), whether using ML or not, the shutter won't work with autofocus lens…I have no clue why this can happen, I have tried all focus settings, I can't get the EOS M to even single AF on a subject, so I'm stuck using autofocus lens in manual mode, in photo and in movie mode. I mainly shoot with the manual 7artisans 25mm1.7, but have bought a used EF-M 15-45mm specifically thinking that I could use it to autofocus, as a way to speed up point focusing (not constant focusing) rather than using Magic Zoom each and everytime. Is this a know issue, especially in Photo mode? I get that in Movie mode, ML might not have yet accepted autofocusing lens, but simply taking pictures should work using Photo mode. Any ideas?

Miss watching your videos ❤

I agree.i can use it as a x cam .overr my bmpck and also my gh5

Looks like a nice improvement over previous builds... unfortunately I sold my M last fall, but I'm contemplating getting another one... ;)

Hey , on my two EOS M's crop mood works great in 1x3 5.2k - but works continuesly only in 10Bit (12 or 14bit gives me few seconds of recording only) and also just in my case 192Mhz works almost every time, while 240Mhz NEVER worked for my for my 64 and 128GB Sandisk cards. one is 95MBs and the 128GB is 175MBs * but basically they are the same write speed cards.

This + bilals video is all we need I fell. How did you change exposure? Just turning the wheel?

Thanks very much for this video! I have had my EOS-M since it was initially released. I remember it getting quite a bad rep due to its "slow" autofocus and also it being an early model mirrorless camera, but look at it now! I apologize for the newbie question but how are you correcting exposure on the fly while recording? I have looked at customize buttons but that did not help. I am in manual mode for movie recording using the 18-55mm kit lens.

Do you know if it works with the m50? Thanks and keep up the great work!!

I have the older 95MB/s Sandisk Card in 32GB Version but it does not work for me even I setup my Canon 100D (SL1 with the magiclantern-crop_mood.2023Aug19.100D101 image) exactely with the same settings like you explained. It stops recording after 2 seconds. Are there any other SD Cards, which are better then the SanDisk Extreme Pro for Crop Mood?

I'm sure I just missed it, but I can't seem to find the source of the problem where my EOS M only shoots a couple of seconds, then stops. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

heya mate! firstly a huge thank you for these videos, and to helping people like myself trouble-shooting - super appreciated 🙏 I've just got an eos m with the August edition of Cropmood, but it won't record in 5K. It'll record about 1 second before cutting out, but it can record in 1080. Do you have any idea where I should be looking for this fix? My SD is Sandisk 64gb extreme pro 200mb/s Cheers again!

Hi, Thank you for this video. I don't have any "SD overclock" option in my ML menu...

I know this comment is a bit late, but is there any new fixes to MLs rolling shutter? I have a video Im trying to salvage where the subjects warp constantly because of the 34ms readout speed. it would be a great camera if I could find out how to get rid of that.

I know it's called crop mood, but is it possible to get full sensor read? Barely used crops on previous builds, except macro shots

can you record 12/14bit video in any crop mode without time limits, or other problems with sd cards etc (except 1080p) ?

Any more info on newer memory cards? Should I get a Sandisk extreme pro 200mb/s card or buy the 170mb/s one?

Any tutorial on installing magic lantern with crop mode ,should i be careful in installing magic lantern? Will it brick my phone

Thanks to magic Lanterns Devs, Zeek and you IMCE Im planning to buy my first Camera that gonna be the EOS M next month ! if someone can help with couples questions tho : 1. Can I output real time Raw video into HDMI into my computer ? 2. Can I still make photos with Crop Mood ? (I gonna be focused on videos but I like photography) Also if ML devs or you for the M Lite need a sound engineer I can help ! You could make live Q&A and just live streaming sometimes :) like when rigging or cleaning video hardware or anything :)

How do you get this canon rehouse kit now?

can you send me a working file, because the ones i download all seem to not record

What is the dynamic range of the Eos M?

My menu settings don't look the same nor act the same to button presses.

So is 95 mb/s the fastest card option overall? Does it improves with 100-300 mb/s card or not?

Hey man, I just got an EOS M for 50 bucks today and installed ML crop mood on it. I already have experience with ML on the 5D II and 7D. But on the EOS M I didn't manage to get the video playback (review footage on camera after shooting), I just get a black screen with the file count going. I tried fiddling with the modules but I couldn't get it to work. It seems that the raw_twk module should be the one to view the footage but when activated it completely freezes the camera when trying to review the footage and I have to remove the battery. I think there's not enough info out there about playback with ML, I couldn't find this info anywhere. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks for everything you do

I am a beginner who just bought the Canon eos M. How do you change the exposure to make the red camera turn green when recording? I got the recommended 95 Sandisk extreme card. Thank you!

Love to see real footage shoot with it.

now I'm waiting for the crop moood, it will record in Braw directly!

Привет! Скажи...1. Какими кнопками ты меняешь экспозицию во время записи? 2. Почему у меня все время стоит авто iso, как его выключить?

Admittedly I don't understand much about the EOS M. But because advancements such as Crop Mood are still being achieved, might one day it be possible to shoot 1080p without moire and aliasing? Or is that impossible due to physical limitations? I've watched the videos about how to lessen or avoid moire, but I'd love to know from a technical standpoint that someone resolved the issue.

What SD card are you using for this build?

Have all installed but still only see that canon menu with the 4 arrows not ml...help me im crying😢

Make a crowdfunding campaign and build a mirrorless video camera from scratch, with Magic Lantern software.

Hi, I’m entering for the first time in this amazing world of video making, and I’m having trouble installing these versions of magic lantern ( I have an eos M). At first I had installed the original version of the program, but I didn’t understand why many of the options I see in the various videos on RU-vid were missing. Now I’ve taken off that version and I’m trying to put on Bilal’s, but I can’t. I have no idea how. Your videos are very useful, I hope you can help me... A greeting from Italy

hi there man , do you whats happened to Zeek

can I record 60fps ?

Can you link up Bilal's video in the description or pinned comments?

Will this 10% increase in heat become a problem for those of us that still have unmoddified eosms. And... the newer faster cards are slower? I hope this Is something that can be fixed.

I installed Magic Lantern on my EOS-M and never really got into it. It was just too cumbersome to use for video. But maybe this is what I needed.

Hey can you help me out everytime I try to install it my camera says memory card containing firmware is required to update I’ve tried multiple different links and formatted my card in between every time I’ve tried to install it any help would be appreciated this is getting annoying

Can we get this for the 5d2 ??

Is it useless now if my touchscreen not working? I cant completely view other infos or mode in my ML. What should i do.

Man taking shoots at the fundraising. Facts though😂😅

I had no idea about the donations and absolutely would have - is that a done deal or is there some mechanism we can go through still (like a Patreon)?

Bro you and Zeek made me buy and use eos m. For unknown reasons Zeek went silent, you don't do that Brother.

Yes the new Sandisk "200mb/s" is slower in benchmark. I always check all surroundings and set resolutions max about 59-60 mb/s ;] But sometimes i see 70 mb/s in rec ?

Wonder if the AI can help perfect things even more?

Pretty sure I have a fake SD card bc I cannot get most of these settings to work beyond a few frames before crashing

2:12 LOL, potentially cos a lot of us are here on the cheap.

Is this software crop mood free or a paid software

What an indictment of Canon and others (are you listening Sony?) consumers have to go behind these people and reverse engineer their devices to get what they should’ve gotten in the first place. What kind of a world are we living in where consumers become the adversaries of corporations??

Man, i'm new to ML, just bought EOS M. I cant understand 1 thing: you choose some of Crop Moode presets with certain resolutions and aspect ratios, but in RAW section there is different resolution and stuff.. should i ignore RAW tab settings when usin Crop Mood or ...? this ML is so weird sometimes:) please help
