      Check my channel for some EOS M 2.5K RAW videos. They are just tests, made in a hurry and shot hand held, but you get the idea, what this lovely little camera is capable to achieve. BTW, thanks for giving good instructions, how to set the camera for 2.5K recording. It's been asked from me countless times, but I never got time to make a video of it.

    By default if you hold the shutter button halfway while in 2.5k recording mode, you'll get a low framerate full preview of what you're actually recording. No need for guesswork when framing your shots.

    I haven't tried 2.5k or RAW on mine yet (ordered a new SD Card after watching this video.) but have had decent results using the 3X Movie Crop mode with both the Canon EF-M 22 f/2 stm and a 35mm F1.6 C-Mount lens, Cinestyle color profile, and shooting handheld with a powered gimbal. The C-Mount lens is a soft manual focus prime that has some pretty strong distortions at the edge of the frames but with the 3X crop you end up not capturing the most distorted parts anyway.

      @PassportToPimlico 5 лет назад +2

      I think that you are right about the crop. I own two EOS-Ms, have Magic Lantern but never tried RAW. It does produce very good video without the need for RAW. I know that some people would think that quite heretical but I'm not sure that RAW is worth that much hassle. I own several adapters for vintage lenses for the EOS-M. I also have a focal reducer for M42 so I can use old Soviet glass like the Mir 1B and Helios 44 as if I were shooting full frame. That all said, the video is the best I've seen showing how to actually try RAW on the EOS-M.

    • @garrettsammons
      @garrettsammons  6 лет назад +1

      It’s honestly surprisingly good. I think cropping in on the sensor is the key. Fewer pixels at a truer resolution. That said, I think if you used better glass (L-series with a speed booster) you’d get even better images. This little kit lens is good, but not incredible.

      Making Movies, The “movie crop” mode in ML gives better results than standard video too. I have used a few lenses on the eos-m, and good glass does make a big difference. The nifty fifty on the m is pretty nice too, as a cheap lens that gives good results. New sub, looking forward to your future videos.

    Hi, just found your 2 videos regarding the EOS M, I’m going through the same process as you, bought the camera and lens cheap £125 here in the UK, and loaded Magic Lantern, having a few issues but seem to be going in the right direction. Question, are you bothered about recording sound? As soon as you change the FPS it disables the sound recording, or have you found a work around. Also having exposure issues when the FPS is changed, purple zebra zones appear on any white surface and are recorded on the video.
    I usually use LUMIX G80 for video, which as you know does everything well, so why are we messing around with this old redundant camera which is difficult to set up? Seems to be a bit of a cult following and set up at the moment and I have to say that the video I have shot so far has a certain something, just not sure what it is yet.

    • @garrettsammons
      @garrettsammons  6 лет назад +1

      I think the only thing that makes the EOS M interesting is shooting 2.5k RAW. The script makes it easy to consistently load the proper settings. That said, I’ve never played with Fran rates outside of 23.976. I don’t think it’ll handle well dealing with higher frame rates in RAW. As far as the dynamic range goes, I just trust the waveforms. I wouldn’t think it could be trustworthy by eye.
      I haven’t played with the G80 but I wouldn’t use the EOS M as a primary shooter. It’s too funky of a workflow to make sense.

    • @garrettsammons

      You’re absolutely right! One of the complaints about this camera when it came out (as a photo camera) was it wasn’t very sharp. All the footage I shot was with that kit lens. Again, if you had better glass it would help. I just don’t think it would compare to a native high resolution RAW camera in any way.

    Hello, I was wondering if the EOS M could shoot continuous at 1080p at a 4x3(1436 x 1080) aspect ratio? I am planning on shooting a short film this summer and want to get better quality video than what my Fuji xt1 can get. I have a Kowa 2x anamorphic that I plan on using so I'd like to shoot at 4x3 so that I get a 2.4 aspect ratio after the stretch. My main concern is that the EOS M has a limited record time at anything deeper than 10 bit at that ratio but I can not find specific information about it and I would like to know for curtain before pulling the trigger on buying one. Thank you.

      Not all RAW records in 12bit. And this sensor only is capable of handling just over 8bit. So the 10bit just gives you everything this sensor has to offer. RAW native cameras will give you more options for sure.
