The screen shot from the ML Forums above shows a 2.5K raw video being played back directly from the MLV file. Meanwhile, the MLV App mentioned above appears to have come a LONG way. Until I try all this for myself, I am a bit confused as to how this works in practice. For continuous action record as described in the post” “The bigger news is about the 1×3 1736×2150 preset… it really means aliasing free 5208×2150 footage when corrected in Mlv App in post. The person who tipped me off by email about this (thank you “D”) implies there’s an aliasing free 5K mode as well. 3×1 means that it is a pixel binning mode on the sensor rather than a full pixel readout – but I am expecting some interesting results once I try it out. The 5K 24fps mode is not continuous but it’s quite astonishing to see what the hardware is capable of.

The EOS M used to be one of the most ‘challenged’ cameras for RAW video, consistently in the shadow of the 5D Mark III and 70D. Pictured above is mine with the Kern-Switar 26mm F1.1. If you enjoyed my Super 16mm c-mount adventure on the new EOS M50, you might want to take a look at the latest Magic Lantern endeavours on the original EOS M.
