quick correction, because some folks in imperial countries might do the wrong thing when it comes to camera mounting -- m3 may be the mounting method in a lot of countries, however, if you are in North America, use 1/4 screws. hex tooling is 16/3 i believe but use whatever imperial tooling that feels right within reason.
Just would like to say thank you for sharing all your settings and experiences, it's definitely going to shape my view on what really matters when filming.
Your videos on this topic have prompted me to get my own EOS-M I already have a couple of C-Mount lenses, and one of your other videos helped me to understand them better. Up til now, I've been kicking myself, wanting to get an EF mount adapter for them so that I could use them with the speedbooster. 🤦♂ Now I understand why that wouldn't work, and why such adapters don't exist. Sadly there goes my dreams of a cheap? f/0.9-ish Cine-lens 🤪🤪 That said, what's your view on cheap, 4k/5k, action cameras modded with M12-C adapter for use with C-mount lenses as the core of a cinema rig, and who do you think would be best served by such a rig? Cheers mate! All the best for 2023 to you and yours.
I am so glad that I found your channel! I noticed that your settings are ISO100 and manual exposure. I don't know why my EOS-M can't function well under these settings. The preview screen turns dark and the video quality is very poor - the colour and lighting aren't right. The quality did not improve when I used ISO auto either. Am I missing something?
Check powersave option to remove dark screen limit. In low light you'll need a fast lens, avoid kit lens in low light situations. I like manual lenses to be honest.
Excellent video tutorial Zeek and very comprehensive. Thanks for the tips and sharing your settings, I went for a wider rig to get more stability and accommodate my 5D MKii, 700D and EOS M making it multipurpose with external battery with a quick release to change cameras easily within the rig, other times the camera is on a stable tripod or gimbal, always watch your tutorials, grateful for the effort and content you put in your videos and nicely presented
@@ZeekEOSZ Most of the credit has to go to you Zeek, I have learnt so much from you over the years, thanks to your tutorials I feel very confident setting up and using the EOS M and 5DMKII with Magic Lantern
This is part Two. Honestly, this is probably the final I go about with settings on the EOS M for a while, unless a new build happens or another Mode. From here, I want to focus on sound, lighting, lens/gear reviews, grading and so on. Cheers! 😎👍👉🎥🔥🔥
Hey bro, how are you ? bro look that now with the ml in the canon eos m red lines appear in the middle. I've already done a thousand tests and it's not the camera or the viewfinder or anything like that. But when I put the card with the ml of one, those red lines show me
In MLV App, you can enable 3x3 Chroma smooth on the top right panel. Also in this video, pinned comment, I mentioned how to load them with the provided files: www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DIJHmFBnmF4g&ved=2ahUKEwjQiM7Ms6LuAhWx6nMBHUylDx8Qo7QBMAd6BAgHEAE&usg=AOvVaw0lFS8I1KdBLuzIBbxyalNh
As I understand, native resolution of this monitor is 1920x1080 but HDMI output of Eos M gives much lower resolution. At least I mentioned this with capture stick and smartphone. It's worth to replace my phone with this kind of monitor or better invest this money in lens or other stuff? And another question - I remember you told that M2 works better with external monitor. What exactly is better?
I'd go with lens, a monitor isn't essential, but I like to record myself for lens testing in the Eos m, that's when it comes in handy. But in general, not highly necessary.
Zeek, great video again! I noticed right at 22:21 you zoom and it zooms to the lower right corner of the frame. I noticed this on my EOSM too and it happens when in 3x crop mode and some other various modes. This basically kills your ability to do a zoom effect with your lens. Any idea how to get it to zoom into the center of the lens?
There is a 2.5K RAW 1:1 Centered Mode that fixes it, otherwise, the developer will have to fix that. I don't normally zoom when im recording unless its a parfocal lens.
Thank you for posting these great tutorials. I have an EOS M and I would like to shoot videos with manual lenses so I need focus peaking. However I’m already on 2.0.3. Is there a ML build for it. If not, how can I revert to 2.0.2?
I've been doing blogging/social content on instagram and wanted to step up the quality of my content from my phone. I've watched videos for a few weeks now and decided to pick up an EOS M (mine wasn't $60 lol) cause it was better quality at an affordable price. Just wanted to say I really enjoy you content and it's helped me feel much more comfortable working with something other than my phone. I'll let you know when I get my first video up on my business channel to see what you think.
What is the optimal option to buy M ? (+tripod, battery pack) 1. I think about body + default universal " kit 18-50" ? after speedboster , zoom +- 135, 2.Only cheap body m. , after speedboster canon lens, is KIT, 3. Body, +kit 24, 18-50, flash, speedbooster,... "Import country " Japan or USA ?
I wish we could see a better a example of continuous Raw. Most tutorials I see on these builds say it’s possible however they aren’t doing proper examples because their cutting off the camera after 90 seconds at best to move on to a different topic. I’ve seen absolutely no examples of hour long recordings . Though I want to trust what these forums are telling me I’m just not getting the information I need to make an informed decision
I used to have a video up avoid ML RAW best SD Cards. I went through recording 1 hour and beyond. With ML, you can cut the 30 minute limit in the menu and then record 1 hour and beyond. You will need a 512GB SanDisk Extreme PRO card and a portable Powerbank with the DR-E12 Dummy Adapter and a USB C Out cable. I have no need to shoot that long, but it's possible and has been done.
I just paid £125 for one with a lens(actually the cheapest I could find in the UK). Not sure how much that is in dollar, definitely more than $60 unfortunately. Nonetheless im looking forward to it!!!
Hey Zeek! I love your videos and finally decided to install magic lantern to my camera. I followed your steps, got the right sd card, but when I install it and switch from Photo Mode to Video Mode, I get really weird streched pink and white lines. :/ The image seems to be freezed, cause nothing moves. In Photo Mode I get a perfect live view. What did I do wrong? I also installed the latest "official" Build from ML Website, which runs perfectly, but has none of those nice features from your/Danne's Build. :( I uninstalled and reinstalled different version, Nov, Oct, etc, but always the same problem! I think I do smth. wrong in the installation part ( but what?) or my camera is not working with ml and damaged, but works perfectly without it?
Hi! I've been watching your videos about the EOS M. It gave me ideas about the budget cinema camera. About the 14-bit in shooting videos, does it mean that we can only shoot in manual mode to get the 14-bit quality? TIA!
I need your help looking for dummy battery for Canon Eos m got lead just need battery can you help I've ordered 2 and battery don't fit cheers zeek u the msn
I would like to see the 2021 version of the 5d mark 2. Anything got better? I have a 5d mark 2 so I am watching and following the 2020 tutorial. Thank.
The last one I did for the 5D2 is the latest, especially with the playback for 2.8K Raw and slight increase in resolution for 1080 mode. Bit I hope to test the Helios 44-2 with the 5D2 Hopefully when it comes in soon from Russia.
Hi Zeek. Thanks a lot for the detailed and helpful tutorials ! You really mastered ML RAW and EOS M. Gorgeous colors and grading ! Was surprised to see Viltrox speed booster work with Canon 10-18mm f4-5.6 in manual mode. Tried this combination a year and half ago and it didn't work. Lens was not recognized by the camera. Maybe my Viltrox was defective. Thinking about buying another one. Also am curious how you manage the framing in 2.8K crop mode, especially when Canon EOS M is on a gimbal. How do you realize what's in the frame and what not ? Preview on LCD screen is somehow OK before hitting record button, but unusable during crop mode recording. Prefer to use Kill Global Draw option in order to get longer recording times. Was thinking about a workaround to the framing problem. With other advancements in ML for EOS M, this is the only problem that bothers me when shooting 2.5K and 2.8K crop modes. And those are by far my favorite ones because of the extra resolution and lack of moire and aliasing. There is a smartphone application called Magic Viewfinder that gives you various angles of view equivalent to FF and other cameras + different crop factors on your smartphone. Put the smartphone on top of EOS M with a simple holder and set on Magic Viewfinder the same equivalent focal length as it is on EOS M. Once recording starts, use my smartphone as a second camera/screen that shows me the framing. There is some parallax effect, when shooting close-ups and phone has to be precisely aligned but it is much better than just looking at EOS M 5x crop. So far, it seems to be working especially for longer takes with bigger camera movements.
No problem at all 😎👍 The Viltrox works fine when the camera AF and lens AF are switched to manual. I pretty much focus and expose with the normal cropped live view, then a click framing just to check everything is okay in frame, I then record with correct grey frame as I move with the subject. Or if I'm confident in what I'm recording then I leave it in the normal live view. I'm so used to it.
Wireless Lavalier is what I use of you are talking to the camera. For example, the RODE Wireless GO. A good microphone on top of the camera is Deity Shotgun Mics.
@@ZeekEOSZ thanks) but question is: How to listen to the recording on the camera? I just bought eos m. Can I play video with sound directly through the camera? Is it possible at all?)
@@kirkaravay Not with RAW Video, in camera sound won't work. You need MLV App to hear the sound of the recorded MLV RAW Video from the EOS M. mlv.app/
Happy New Year Zeek! All the best! I'm trying out the 2.8k mode and I'm curious as to how you get rid of your focus pixels in MLV. They disappear when I enable chroma smooth above 2x2 though I feel like there is some detail loss after doing that. Thanks again!!
Hey, download the focus pixel maps and then paste them onto MLV App interface. Check my pinned comment in this video here: ua-cam.com/video/IJHmFBnmF4g/v-deo.html
Hi! Googling about camera I found you with this small one just in size. I've been making some videos, but my camera doesn't help much... this EOS M has a great price and everything...but watching this video, I saw that it only records a few seconds, is that right or did I get it wrong? that is, if I want to make a video of about 3 minutes, would I have to record it several times? Thank you for sharing this experience with all of us! You've been doing a great job with that EOS M
Great video, heaps of useful information. I've been looking for one of these cameras in Australia, but can't anything under ~$250 (body only). How/where did you score one for $60??
I got one from TED's Camera used about a year ago, sometimes even Cashconverters will have some in stock. I bought mine off eBay. It was listed as broken with a dead pixel and i took the gamble. Others I have gotten from Japan, but they've recently increased in price.
@@ZeekEOSZ I appreciate the info, I'll keep checking those locations. I found your UA-cam channel after purchasing an M50 and realizing it didn't have an intervalometer. Searching lead me to Magic Lantern; Canon M-series + Magic Lantern lead me here. It is a shame that Magic Lantern cannot be used on the M50, but it seems like the M is a reliable camera, even if it is "aging" and doesn't have all of the bells and whistles that the M50 has.
@@12Jerbs Yeah both great cameras. I still have and use the M50. I love it and don't think it's so entry level at all. Planning on making another video about it.
It's a 2.96x Crop Factor. My Pocket 6K has a 3.3x Crop Factor in 2.8K Mode. I use stabilised lenses like the 10-18mm on a speedbooster or the 18-135 IS, Canon 24-70 F4 IS etc... Heaps of stabilsed lenses out there. 🎥👌🔥
I would like to know your opinion on which can be the best configuration to record wildlife with a 100-400mm with the best possible quality, with the canon M take care Zeek ! Cheers
That lens would go well with the Eos m on a tripod. 2.5K and 2.8K Raw would be the best quality, and they have sound a 2.96-3.2x Crop Factor for extra reach. For 2.5K, you can enable 16:9 in the Ratio section and that will trigger 16:9 2.1K Continuous Raw.
Hi mate can you help me out? What's better, Canon EOS M or Canon 5D MK 2? I currently have the eos M but I don't know if I should get the 5D MK 2. Is a full-frame sensor really worth it?
I did a comparison video of the two on the channel. To be honest, the 5D2 is nice, but I prefer the Eos m more for raw video an dude it more frequently.
@@ZeekEOSZ Yes! But there are no problems with overheating if I try to record 20min. for example? I will gladly use it as a small, hidden camera in a wedding ceremony. Better than GoPro to match it with BMPCC 4K :)
duders? $60 eos m? you are blessed. you should try drones. magic lantern community is exhausting! updates backups oh my! i almost always forget to back up a version before i reformat the card. that's the first step toward eos m magic lantern enlightenment….anyway…back to drones…i almost shit my britches flying low over marshes. it is a rush. start out with a mavic mini (refurbrished or used) and get a range extender (like i need to do) and you will be set …just with upscaling alone, I don't see too much dynamic range difference with the right tweaks. initially mavic mini 2 footage looked like garbage with too much linear lines, they fixed some of it and it looks pretty pristine, but if you basically want a throw away drone that is actually pretty damn resilient and that you can take on epic missions, just get the original. you mainly need range extender to fly confidently between barriers, not to necessarily get max range unless you are into that thing and you are permitted. i don't think the cost benefits of 4k output from camera are negligibly that different to 2.7k upscaled to 4k with the right exposure. especially, since you are capturing dynamic range movement you are dealing with totally different aspects of the temporal ideation of movements. pixels shifting under parallax are very strange and dynamically altered. 2.7k upscaled to 4k always looks like normal 4k under the right exposure.
Mavic Mini is a good choice, or even the spark if not too fussed. Seen good things from those. Drones are definitely cool, been looking around, just need to stir up my passion for using one.
@@ZeekEOSZ the mini is better than the spark with one of the third party apps you unlock all the other modes. i dunno…i'm not a spokes person for dji and it creeps me out to think that the faa can be spying on my drone footage, but at the same time we have to use these devices responsibly. they can definitely be like creeper devices, or super epic b roll devices. depends on the type of individual.
Yes you still can use X2 if you need for sure 😎👍 It will improve details. Sometimes I just don't want it, especially if I have heaps of clips like 200.
Hey! Zeek the God! I come from China, is your Fan, China also has many your fans! Eos M has also gone up in price, I would like to ask you 7Artisans or Canno FD or Zeissx1.6 equivalent? Can you recommend a 35 mm fixed or Zoom Lens for street photography? How to choose between 7 artisans or CANNO FD or Zeiss, because 10-18 is too big for my pocket. I hope you get a response
All are very good options for sure, can't go wrong with any. Depends on your style. Zeiss will look most cinematic and Canon FD/7Artisans more natural. Meike 35mm F1.4/F1.7 is a good choice for street photography or even Takumar 35mm F3.5 M42 Mount. Canon FD 28mm F2.8 is nice and 50mm F1.8/1.4.
Hi zeek! there is something I don't get. Why you have to press "INFO" to see the real framing? when you record a video, how do you know your real-time framing is?
For 1080 mode or 5k frtp mode you don't have to. Just with the higher resolutions because in order to achieve these resolutions, the sensor needs to be "cropped in" otherwise these resolutions could not be achieved. Hence the Info button allows us to see the actual RAW framing, whilst the live view has the crop-in. Here is a video shot completely with 2.8k raw on the eos m: ua-cam.com/video/ohDS3ErANOs/v-deo.html
@@ZeekEOSZWow! I get it. You have to master framing in those modes then. I guess I will experience it sooner than later because I bought it. 😁 Thanks man!
Hello, thank you for your great videos! I am wondering if you have any idea as to why when I’m shooting in 1080 with the canon 10-18 stm the video turns purple randomly (like glitching) when I upload it on my computer? Thanks in advance
hello zeek i wanted to ask you about sandisk extreme pro 128GB 300Mb SD card , do you think that this card will work with canon 650D and magic lantern?(i am asking you that because i have heard that the canon 650D is limited to 80Mb write speed per second) , and if so , do you think it will give on the recording time , in high resolution like magic lantern 2.8 RAW continues record on 16:9 (the write speed on this disk is 200Mb per second.
The 300mb/a cards won't make a difference in comparison to the 95/170mb/s. It would probably be worse. They're good for something like the GH5 or BMPCC 4K.
hello zeek , do you know where can i find the latest build of magic lantern for canon 650d? i am talking about the build that you demonstrated in this video if there is build like that for canon 650d?.
Not much work has been done for the 650D, so it's left with whatever there is in the Magic Lantern Forum 650D Topic or ML Website for the 650D. The 700D is more advanced and has a similar build.
Hello Zeek I hope you are well, Could you please clarify some doubts for me, I have verified that in the 2'5 and 2'8 K modes, the image I see on the screen does not match what I am actually recording, which is much wider, when pressing the info button already It proves it to me. the preview have it in real time. Is all this normal or what can I have wrongly configured? 1080 mode, 5k frtp if they match what I see on the screen. Thanks for your help
For the 2.5/2.8K modes, they crop on realtime preview which is how they access the high resolutions. Info button is needed just to check realtime framing, it's how it is. I focus on realtime, press info to check the actual framing, return to realtime and then hit record.
Thanks Zeek! Lots of good info. Question: I notice that you have 1/50 shutter on the bottom of the screen and then 23.976 on the line above. I'm a bit confused. When I shoot I always change the shutter in the magic lantern menu to 1/48 to match the 23.976. So when you're going thru 2.8 and 2.5k mode could you explain the mismatch between 1/50 and 23.976? I want to use 1/48 all of the time but when I switch between 2.5k and 5K the shutter in the leftmost menu changes sometimes so I set it back to 1/48. Thank you! Dave
You can enable shutter lock when setting 1/48 through image fine-tuning. I get flickering in my region with 1/48 in certain lighting areas. To my eye, I can't really tell the difference from 1/50 which has no flicker, but you can set that up if you like 😎👍
2.0.2 is needed for ML on the M. All modes aren't 5x crop, at least not the 1080 mode. It needs to crop into the sensor on order to get more resolution, otherwise there's no way.
@@ZeekEOSZ weird you would think you get more resolution using the whole chip....possibly something to do with pixel binning or 1:1 sensor...i'll get the hang of it in the end...you've certainly made enough video's on the subject, i see you have the button to preview things at normal size but that still looks like an awkward way of working
Hey Zeek, I really enjoy your videos! I was wondering if you could help me figure out why my ISO would be stuck on Auto, showing ISOA6400 on the screen while filming. I am not sure, but I suspect it might be responsible for the horrible video quality I'm experiencing... Thanks!
Hi Zeek, Thank you for your helpful tutorials as always! I purchased EOSM and 7artisans 25mm after watching your channel and I have been trying to shoot a sharp footage like yours. However, all of my footages are full of noise when exporting them as CDNG by MLVAPP. Could you give me any advise for improvement especially when you deal with CDNG files?
Check your EV on the Live-view. The numbers should fall between 0.9 - 0.1. closer to 0.1 or 0.2 is better. Use false colour tool if you can as well, blue colour areas will generally show more noise.
@@ZeekEOSZ Thank you for the advise! It was quite hard for me to keep E-No. between 0.1-0.9 avoiding it going "over", but I will keep trying to get better. I am always rooting for you from Japan!
Hello, I used to have the same issue with noise. Very intriguing because the footage from the camera without Magic Lantern was very clean and with low noise in the same conditions. So I imagined it was something about ML configuration or anything else.. I found out that Expo Override (exposure tab) was on. I turned it off and image improved a lot in my specific case. Maybe it is a setting worth checking.
Hi there! Just curious if there is a way to view the actual frame of what you are recording while recording? In 5k anamorphic for example and without an additional monitor? Thanks for your all you help!
Hi Zeek, I'm still messing with Magic Lantern trying to get it to work. Ran into another problem that maybe you can help with. 1080p raw is working great, but when I try to use 2.5k or 2.8k I get a message saying "2560 is not possible in the current video mode (max 2192)". I am using a Sandisk Extreme Pro. I read on a forum that it may have to do with my zoom level or something, but no idea how I change that. Any insight?
It's a Tailor Hobson Cooke England 16mm F3.5 C Mount Lens. I made a review/test with these lenses in this video: ua-cam.com/video/ZmB8OoVKGDA/v-deo.html
Excellent video. Do you find non crop mode (aka pixel binning/line skipping) gives you moir or fringing on detail shots? On t3i, I mostly used 3x crop mode to avoid that but then, normal lenses will behave like telephoto lens. side note: I'm thinking of getting eos-m for high-res raw video shooting. The t3i can only rec 6-sec clip at 1784x736.

Hi everyone. Been shooting and enjoying eos m raw. Lately I've had the need for making long continuous recordings like 1hr+ if possible. Is my best option to just to shoot 10bit raw with a large capacity sd card? I'll need to upgrade if so. Anyone got experience shooting for that long on the eos M? I have a battery bank setup so runtime shouldnt be a problem. Or is there a way I can shoot a compressed codec without the file splitting? Thanks
Yes you can, in the power save option in the ML Menu, I think tab 7 off the top of my head. I cover it in this video: ua-cam.com/video/Crlqa0_43js/v-deo.html
I'm trying to decide whether to buy the EOS M and use the saved money to buy extra gear or purchase the Panasonic G7 can you give me a list of pros and cons or either decision?
RAW invoices a longer process, G7 is quick but lacks log profiles meaning it will have a lack of good dynamic range. The EOS M RAW can take time getting used to and if you don't have the patience, then it won't be the right camera for you.
hello @zeek. can you give me a link to the product? i somehow confuse with which camera it is to look on google, like theres a bunch of eos m type, is not eos m50, m6 or m200 right? i'm really sorry but i really dont know which one is it.. :(
@@ZeekEOSZ thanks! So, just to be clear, if I bought m50 or m6, 100 etc other than the original ones, I cannot use magic lantern or shoot raw like the original eos m ?
It's up to you really. If you need good AF, then the M50 will be the better choice. The ZV-1 or ZV-E10 are also nice if you can get them cheap. I like the EOS M purely for budget old school cinematography.
Dear Zeek. Thanks for the much information in UA-cam from the EOS M and magic lantern. I have only one question: what is your solution about the full HD 1080 p Aliasing and chromatic aberation? My workflow is : mlv app uncompressed cinema dng, after davinci resolve bdm film...

@@ZeekEOSZ if possible, will you say a few more words about the view in which you are recording? framing or cropped live view? Both not easy... because cropped live view easy to focus but not easy to composition. Framing mod easy to composition but not easy to focus and view :) for me..
Hi Zeek, I bought one of this cameras and have been following your videos about magic lantern settings for a while. But there is something I can't wrap my head around, do the main settings of the camera affect the settings from magic lantern? I'm having a hard time making work the camera and getting the results that you are getting. All of my videos are too dark or too grainy. I´m about to throw the towel in this to be honest.
What lens are you using, where are you recording? Raw format is data straight from the sensor, so noise will be apparent in certain cases. Exporting DNG and working in Davinci Resolve I find handles the noise very well. I use Speedboosters and fast lenses in low light and Never increase the iso above 160 ISO.
@@ZeekEOSZ Thanks a lot for your answer! I'm using the 22mm that came with my camera, it seems that my iso was maxed out because my aperture was ahmmm small? or big? it was capturing almost no light. Definetly gonna try with other lenses in the future but for now I shall try to make do with what I have. BTW, does the speedboster change the type of lenses you can use? This is something I'm having trouble with, because if it does I would first buy the speedbooster and then look what my lense options are
You can get speedboosters in different mounts e.g. Canon. EF, Canon FD & M42 Speedbooster to EOS M. I prefer Canon EF Speedboosters to use EF Mount Lenses.
Hello, check the Expo Override setting on the Exposure tab on Magic Lantern. I used to have this noise issue. Expo Override was on by some reason. I turned it off and noise was reduced significantly in my case. Maybe it is a configuration worth checking. Hope it helps.
Hi Zeek, I am having a lot of problems with the ML Build you use. If I go higher than 1080p ML goes crazy. Live preview is all purple lines. Even the ML menu is laggy and the camera gets warm when I am not recording. Even my sd card gets warm I tried every combination of settings but no luck. The footage I get is smashed vertically and only purple and white. I am using the same SD Card as you only 64 gb though.

I believe it can be fixed if the cards are formatted I think from memory as either FAT or FAT32 or something, can't remet off the top of my head. Also if you have access to a windows system, that would be a better way. Big Sur is annoying..
@@ZeekEOSZ Oh! would it be because of that?... I'm gonna try in another OS and let you know. Thanks a lot for the quick response and for your work with all these videos Zeek, seriously. You were the main reason for me to grab one of this little Eos M and give it a try!
so would technically any of shooting modes work, the ones you show just works best with a monitor? and what does FRTP stand? what’s the difference between the regular 2.5k and the 2.5k frtp
An hour or so on each battery. After a recording I turn the battery off and one for me can last around 2 hours. Vintage lenses or manual lens will get longer battery life, in comparison to Electronic AF lenses e.g. 18-55. I normally carry around 4 in my pocket or bag and end up using only two.
@@jesseyules There is. I did a video about it a while back, but you don't need a big one: ua-cam.com/video/sqCn-wV8F0U/v-deo.html You can get Eos m dummy adapters off eBay or Amazon with USB. If you're planning on shooting continuous for a few hours they're a good option.
@@ZeekEOSZ first of all, Thank you so much, I’ve watched all your videos and I have learned so much about ML and the eos m, I’m planning on buying 2 of these for my atem mini, so I was wondering also if the eos m with ML being used through hdmi will turn off after 30 ?
It won't turn off after 30 minutes. You can disable this function. I made a video about it here: www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DCrlqa0_43js&ved=2ahUKEwienu7i_5_uAhXD7HMBHXwKAFgQ28sGMAN6BAgBEGs&usg=AOvVaw2VJShXKVKcmXFcSGpXehQ5

quick correction, because some folks in imperial countries might do the wrong thing when it comes to camera mounting -- m3 may be the mounting method in a lot of countries, however, if you are in North America, use 1/4 screws. hex tooling is 16/3 i believe but use whatever imperial tooling that feels right within reason.
Just picked up an EOS M to compliment my M50. Never knew this 8year old plus camera is such a little beast. Thanks for the info - great video
No problem, enjoy! 😎👍🎥🔥
Just would like to say thank you for sharing all your settings and experiences, it's definitely going to shape my view on what really matters when filming.
I always watch from Japan. I would be grateful if you could release a video on how to take audio.
Awesome! And yes, it's on my list 😎👌🍻
This small camera is just amazing, I start to play around with it now. And watching your video always gives me inspiration
No problemo!! 👌

Wonderful work, Zeek. Very inspiring and educational. The best of the best!
Appreciate the comment, and glad it helps. Cheers! 😎🙌🎥🔥
Hey Zeek ! Nice ! Are You planning to make some video about Focus pixels and how to deal with it in post ?
Those videos have already been made by other users. If you look at similar comments below, I've answered how to deal with them 👍
@@ZeekEOSZ Cheers 😃 I'll do that 👊
Thanks a lot for these valuable tutorials
Wish to see more vlogs
No problem 👍
you should try getting a v60 card. I bought 128gb lexar card last month for 30usd
I've had the Lexar 1000x before, loved it! 512GB is honestly huge, it's never run out from even a day shooting. 😎👍🎥
So glad I found your channel! Unfortunately I Sold my EOS M a few years ago, but I think I might have to buy another!
It's such a great camera, honestly, even with my Pocket 6K around, I still pick it up a lot.
Your videos on this topic have prompted me to get my own EOS-M I already have a couple of C-Mount lenses, and one of your other videos helped me to understand them better. Up til now, I've been kicking myself, wanting to get an EF mount adapter for them so that I could use them with the speedbooster. 🤦♂ Now I understand why that wouldn't work, and why such adapters don't exist. Sadly there goes my dreams of a cheap? f/0.9-ish Cine-lens 🤪🤪 That said, what's your view on cheap, 4k/5k, action cameras modded with M12-C adapter for use with C-mount lenses as the core of a cinema rig, and who do you think would be best served by such a rig? Cheers mate! All the best for 2023 to you and yours.
60 bucks that’s such a great deal man! Rig gear is twice the cost of the camera xD.
It has one dead pixel, but it can be removed. Haha yeah, gear, lenses etc...you name it ;)
BTW, you know what I wanna see? I wanna see a Zeek Signature EF-M speedbooster with build-in ND a la Peter McKinnon's Polar Pro filters.
Haha, will probably never happen 😉🍻
Thank you so much for the build! Perfectly meets my needs, works stably.
Awesome to hear! 😎👍🍻
I am so glad that I found your channel! I noticed that your settings are ISO100 and manual exposure. I don't know why my EOS-M can't function well under these settings. The preview screen turns dark and the video quality is very poor - the colour and lighting aren't right. The quality did not improve when I used ISO auto either. Am I missing something?
Check powersave option to remove dark screen limit. In low light you'll need a fast lens, avoid kit lens in low light situations. I like manual lenses to be honest.
Excellent video tutorial Zeek and very comprehensive. Thanks for the tips and sharing your settings, I went for a wider rig to get more stability and accommodate my 5D MKii, 700D and EOS M making it multipurpose with external battery with a quick release to change cameras easily within the rig, other times the camera is on a stable tripod or gimbal, always watch your tutorials, grateful for the effort and content you put in your videos and nicely presented
No problem at all, sounds like you have it all sorted haha 😎👍 I have lots of Eos m cameras so, the ones without the rig will be used on the Gimball 🍻

I love using the 50mm f/2 from Pentax!
Excellent lens!
Hey Zeek, amazing as always! Do u always record manually and focus "on the go"?
Yes I do, always manual with this cam. You can use one shot AF too, but I don't use it, unless vlogging or something.
Happy new year, Zeek
You too man 😎👍🍻
That's the ultimate guide! Fantastic Zeek🙏👏👏🙏
This is part Two. Honestly, this is probably the final I go about with settings on the EOS M for a while, unless a new build happens or another Mode.
From here, I want to focus on sound, lighting, lens/gear reviews, grading and so on. Cheers! 😎👍👉🎥🔥🔥
Hey bro, how are you ? bro look that now with the ml in the canon eos m red lines appear in the middle. I've already done a thousand tests and it's not the camera or the viewfinder or anything like that. But when I put the card with the ml of one, those red lines show me

Me to myself: Man, that was fast! New record I mean ... 💪
Beast Mode 😎👌🎥🔥
Can you shoot 12- or 14-bit with that monitor? Or is it just 10-?
Any 😎👍2.5K HDMI works pretty well, haven't got any dropped frames yet or even in 5KFRTP & 2K 1:1. I've had some in 1080 mode.
As I understand, native resolution of this monitor is 1920x1080 but HDMI output of Eos M gives much lower resolution. At least I mentioned this with capture stick and smartphone. It's worth to replace my phone with this kind of monitor or better invest this money in lens or other stuff?
And another question - I remember you told that M2 works better with external monitor. What exactly is better?
I'd go with lens, a monitor isn't essential, but I like to record myself for lens testing in the Eos m, that's when it comes in handy. But in general, not highly necessary.
Make a vid on using EOS M for streaming, videoconferencing stuff, Zeek.
Never tried it, I personally wouldn't do streaming with the M, but I will have a look into it.
Thanks man!
No problem 👍
thanks for this guide. looks so nice on my 4k 65" oled! but it was recorded with your sony A7C right?
Yes it was!
Not sure if you showed it in the video, but how long can you film in 1080p HD mode?
Continuous :)
Really good budget set, but I have very little time to do videography
Yeh notification squad 🔥
Zeek, great video again! I noticed right at 22:21 you zoom and it zooms to the lower right corner of the frame. I noticed this on my EOSM too and it happens when in 3x crop mode and some other various modes. This basically kills your ability to do a zoom effect with your lens. Any idea how to get it to zoom into the center of the lens?
There is a 2.5K RAW 1:1 Centered Mode that fixes it, otherwise, the developer will have to fix that. I don't normally zoom when im recording unless its a parfocal lens.
You can actually fix the dead pixel problem in camera. Check this video out: ua-cam.com/video/9Nrn2N_syBA/v-deo.html
YES!!!! Thanks again, bro! ;)
No problemo 😎👉🎥🔥
Thank you for posting these great tutorials. I have an EOS M and I would like to shoot videos with manual lenses so I need focus peaking. However I’m already on 2.0.3. Is there a ML build for it. If not, how can I revert to 2.0.2?
thank you for this!!
No worries 👍
I've been doing blogging/social content on instagram and wanted to step up the quality of my content from my phone. I've watched videos for a few weeks now and decided to pick up an EOS M (mine wasn't $60 lol) cause it was better quality at an affordable price. Just wanted to say I really enjoy you content and it's helped me feel much more comfortable working with something other than my phone. I'll let you know when I get my first video up on my business channel to see what you think.
Awesome to hear man! It can take getting used to in comparison to other cams out there, bit this one has to be my absolute favourite 😎👍
What is the optimal option to buy M ? (+tripod, battery pack)
1. I think about body + default universal " kit 18-50" ? after speedboster , zoom +- 135,
2.Only cheap body m. , after speedboster canon lens, is KIT,
3. Body, +kit 24, 18-50, flash, speedbooster,...
"Import country "
Japan or USA ?
I wish we could see a better a example of continuous Raw. Most tutorials I see on these builds say it’s possible however they aren’t doing proper examples because their cutting off the camera after 90 seconds at best to move on to a different topic. I’ve seen absolutely no examples of hour long recordings . Though I want to trust what these forums are telling me I’m just not getting the information I need to make an informed decision
I used to have a video up avoid ML RAW best SD Cards. I went through recording 1 hour and beyond. With ML, you can cut the 30 minute limit in the menu and then record 1 hour and beyond. You will need a 512GB SanDisk Extreme PRO card and a portable Powerbank with the DR-E12 Dummy Adapter and a USB C Out cable. I have no need to shoot that long, but it's possible and has been done.
your work is amazing! could you tell how you got the video colors at 01:56 . only through the MLV App or the davinci solve?
I just paid £125 for one with a lens(actually the cheapest I could find in the UK). Not sure how much that is in dollar, definitely more than $60 unfortunately.
Nonetheless im looking forward to it!!!
Awesome price, enjoy!! 😎🎥🔥🔥
Hey Zeek! I love your videos and finally decided to install magic lantern to my camera. I followed your steps, got the right sd card, but when I install it and switch from Photo Mode to Video Mode, I get really weird streched pink and white lines. :/ The image seems to be freezed, cause nothing moves. In Photo Mode I get a perfect live view. What did I do wrong? I also installed the latest "official" Build from ML Website, which runs perfectly, but has none of those nice features from your/Danne's Build. :(
I uninstalled and reinstalled different version, Nov, Oct, etc, but always the same problem! I think I do smth. wrong in the installation part ( but what?) or my camera is not working with ml and damaged, but works perfectly without it?

Hi Zeek. Thanks a lot for the detailed and helpful tutorials ! You really mastered ML RAW and EOS M. Gorgeous colors and grading !
Was surprised to see Viltrox speed booster work with Canon 10-18mm f4-5.6 in manual mode. Tried this combination a year and half ago and it didn't work. Lens was not recognized by the camera. Maybe my Viltrox was defective. Thinking about buying another one.
Also am curious how you manage the framing in 2.8K crop mode, especially when Canon EOS M is on a gimbal. How do you realize what's in the frame and what not ? Preview on LCD screen is somehow OK before hitting record button, but unusable during crop mode recording. Prefer to use Kill Global Draw option in order to get longer recording times.
Was thinking about a workaround to the framing problem. With other advancements in ML for EOS M, this is the only problem that bothers me when shooting 2.5K and 2.8K crop modes. And those are by far my favorite ones because of the extra resolution and lack of moire and aliasing. There is a smartphone application called Magic Viewfinder that gives you various angles of view equivalent to FF and other cameras + different crop factors on your smartphone. Put the smartphone on top of EOS M with a simple holder and set on Magic Viewfinder the same equivalent focal length as it is on EOS M. Once recording starts, use my smartphone as a second camera/screen that shows me the framing. There is some parallax effect, when shooting close-ups and phone has to be precisely aligned but it is much better than just looking at EOS M 5x crop. So far, it seems to be working especially for longer takes with bigger camera movements.
No problem at all 😎👍
The Viltrox works fine when the camera AF and lens AF are switched to manual.
I pretty much focus and expose with the normal cropped live view, then a click framing just to check everything is okay in frame, I then record with correct grey frame as I move with the subject. Or if I'm confident in what I'm recording then I leave it in the normal live view. I'm so used to it.
Hi Zeek! I love this video!

You've been doing a great job with that EOS M
Great video, heaps of useful information. I've been looking for one of these cameras in Australia, but can't anything under ~$250 (body only). How/where did you score one for $60??
I got one from TED's Camera used about a year ago, sometimes even Cashconverters will have some in stock. I bought mine off eBay. It was listed as broken with a dead pixel and i took the gamble. Others I have gotten from Japan, but they've recently increased in price.
@@ZeekEOSZ I appreciate the info, I'll keep checking those locations. I found your UA-cam channel after purchasing an M50 and realizing it didn't have an intervalometer. Searching lead me to Magic Lantern; Canon M-series + Magic Lantern lead me here.

It's a 2.96x Crop Factor. My Pocket 6K has a 3.3x Crop Factor in 2.8K Mode.
I use stabilised lenses like the 10-18mm on a speedbooster or the 18-135 IS, Canon 24-70 F4 IS etc...

I would like to know your opinion on which can be the best configuration to record wildlife with a 100-400mm with the best possible quality, with the canon M
take care Zeek !
Cheers
That lens would go well with the Eos m on a tripod. 2.5K and 2.8K Raw would be the best quality, and they have sound a 2.96-3.2x Crop Factor for extra reach. For 2.5K, you can enable 16:9 in the Ratio section and that will trigger 16:9 2.1K Continuous Raw.
Hi mate can you help me out? What's better, Canon EOS M or Canon 5D MK 2? I currently have the eos M but I don't know if I should get the 5D MK 2. Is a full-frame sensor really worth it?
I did a comparison video of the two on the channel. To be honest, the 5D2 is nice, but I prefer the Eos m more for raw video an dude it more frequently.
Great video. Thanks. The comment about the 10-18 mount being "modified". For what reason? And modified in what way? Thanks.
Modified so I can fit it onto speedboosters without hitting the glass and get a wider field of view.
Hi Zeek crazy work man, i like it very much, is it posible to get that quality video with canon 700D like eos M or i gotta sell it? Thanks
The 700S is very similar, it's been updated. You should get good results with that camera, I just prefer the EOS M/5D2.
Nope, I have the 700D and the sd card speed is very limited. At most you’ll get 1080 raw with magic lantern.

Continuous until card fills up or battery dies.
@@ZeekEOSZ Yes! But there are no problems with overheating if I try to record 20min. for example? I will gladly use it as a small, hidden camera in a wedding ceremony. Better than GoPro to match it with BMPCC 4K :)

Am i just use 1080raw and 5k raw?
duders? $60 eos m? you are blessed. you should try drones. magic lantern community is exhausting! updates backups oh my! i almost always forget to back up a version before i reformat the card. that's the first step toward eos m magic lantern enlightenment….anyway…back to drones…i almost shit my britches flying low over marshes. it is a rush. start out with a mavic mini (refurbrished or used) and get a range extender (like i need to do) and you will be set …just with upscaling alone, I don't see too much dynamic range difference with the right tweaks. initially mavic mini 2 footage looked like garbage with too much linear lines, they fixed some of it and it looks pretty pristine, but if you basically want a throw away drone that is actually pretty damn resilient and that you can take on epic missions, just get the original. you mainly need range extender to fly confidently between barriers, not to necessarily get max range unless you are into that thing and you are permitted. i don't think the cost benefits of 4k output from camera are negligibly that different to 2.7k upscaled to 4k with the right exposure. especially, since you are capturing dynamic range movement you are dealing with totally different aspects of the temporal ideation of movements. pixels shifting under parallax are very strange and dynamically altered. 2.7k upscaled to 4k always looks like normal 4k under the right exposure.
I mean, you got an RC car. You may as well get a damn drone!
Mavic Mini is a good choice, or even the spark if not too fussed. Seen good things from those. Drones are definitely cool, been looking around, just need to stir up my passion for using one.
@@ZeekEOSZ the mini is better than the spark with one of the third party apps you unlock all the other modes. i dunno…i'm not a spokes person for dji and it creeps me out to think that the faa can be spying on my drone footage, but at the same time we have to use these devices responsibly. they can definitely be like creeper devices, or super epic b roll devices. depends on the type of individual.

Hey! Zeek the God! I come from China, is your Fan, China also has many your fans! Eos M has also gone up in price, I would like to ask you 7Artisans or Canno FD or Zeissx1.6 equivalent? Can you recommend a 35 mm fixed or Zoom Lens for street photography? How to choose between 7 artisans or CANNO FD or Zeiss, because 10-18 is too big for my pocket. I hope you get a response
All are very good options for sure, can't go wrong with any. Depends on your style. Zeiss will look most cinematic and Canon FD/7Artisans more natural.
Meike 35mm F1.4/F1.7 is a good choice for street photography or even Takumar 35mm F3.5 M42 Mount. Canon FD 28mm F2.8 is nice and 50mm F1.8/1.4.
Hi zeek! there is something I don't get. Why you have to press "INFO" to see the real framing? when you record a video, how do you know your real-time framing is?
For 1080 mode or 5k frtp mode you don't have to. Just with the higher resolutions because in order to achieve these resolutions, the sensor needs to be "cropped in" otherwise these resolutions could not be achieved. Hence the Info button allows us to see the actual RAW framing, whilst the live view has the crop-in.
Here is a video shot completely with 2.8k raw on the eos m:

@@ZeekEOSZWow! I get it. You have to master framing in those modes then. I guess I will experience it sooner than later because I bought it. 😁 Thanks man!
@@JonBenza No problem! Once you get used to it, it feels natural haha ;) Also helps with focusing on composition.
Hello, thank you for your great videos! I am wondering if you have any idea as to why when I’m shooting in 1080 with the canon 10-18 stm the video turns purple randomly (like glitching) when I upload it on my computer? Thanks in advance
hello zeek i wanted to ask you about sandisk extreme pro 128GB 300Mb SD card , do you think that this card will work with canon 650D and magic lantern?(i am asking you that because i have heard that the canon 650D is limited to 80Mb write speed per second) , and if so , do you think it will give on the recording time , in high resolution like magic lantern 2.8 RAW continues record on 16:9 (the write speed on this disk is 200Mb per second.
The 300mb/a cards won't make a difference in comparison to the 95/170mb/s. It would probably be worse. They're good for something like the GH5 or BMPCC 4K.
@@ZeekEOSZ Thank you for your answer.
hello zeek , do you know where can i find the latest build of magic lantern for canon 650d? i am talking about the build that you demonstrated in this video if there is build like that for canon 650d?.
Not much work has been done for the 650D, so it's left with whatever there is in the Magic Lantern Forum 650D Topic or ML Website for the 650D. The 700D is more advanced and has a similar build.
thank you very much.
Hello Zeek I hope you are well,
Could you please clarify some doubts for me, I have verified that in the 2'5 and 2'8 K modes, the image I see on the screen does not match what I am actually recording, which is much wider, when pressing the info button already It proves it to me.
the preview have it in real time.
Is all this normal or what can I have wrongly configured?
1080 mode, 5k frtp if they match what I see on the screen.
Thanks for your help
For the 2.5/2.8K modes, they crop on realtime preview which is how they access the high resolutions. Info button is needed just to check realtime framing, it's how it is. I focus on realtime, press info to check the actual framing, return to realtime and then hit record.
Thanks Zeek! Lots of good info. Question: I notice that you have 1/50 shutter on the bottom of the screen and then 23.976 on the line above. I'm a bit confused. When I shoot I always change the shutter in the magic lantern menu to 1/48 to match the 23.976.
So when you're going thru 2.8 and 2.5k mode could you explain the mismatch between 1/50 and 23.976?
I want to use 1/48 all of the time but when I switch between 2.5k and 5K the shutter in the leftmost menu changes sometimes so I set it back to 1/48. Thank you! Dave
You can enable shutter lock when setting 1/48 through image fine-tuning. I get flickering in my region with 1/48 in certain lighting areas. To my eye, I can't really tell the difference from 1/50 which has no flicker, but you can set that up if you like 😎👍
why all video modes are x5 crop think i'll be reverting 2.0.2
2.0.2 is needed for ML on the M. All modes aren't 5x crop, at least not the 1080 mode. It needs to crop into the sensor on order to get more resolution, otherwise there's no way.
@@ZeekEOSZ weird you would think you get more resolution using the whole chip....possibly something to do with pixel binning or 1:1 sensor...i'll get the hang of it in the end...you've certainly made enough video's on the subject, i see you have the button to preview things at normal size but that still looks like an awkward way of working
can you get clean plate out for the HDMI and what version hdmi is it?
Hey Zeek, I really enjoy your videos! I was wondering if you could help me figure out why my ISO would be stuck on Auto, showing ISOA6400 on the screen while filming. I am not sure, but I suspect it might be responsible for the horrible video quality I'm experiencing... Thanks!
Your in Auto instead of Manual. Take the SD out, press the info button to enter dashboard, then top right camera icon, tap and switch to manual. 😎👍
@@ZeekEOSZ Worked! Thank you so much!
No problem 😎👍
Hi Zeek, Thank you for your helpful tutorials as always! I purchased EOSM and 7artisans 25mm after watching your channel and I have been trying to shoot a sharp footage like yours. However, all of my footages are full of noise when exporting them as CDNG by MLVAPP. Could you give me any advise for improvement especially when you deal with CDNG files?
Check your EV on the Live-view. The numbers should fall between 0.9 - 0.1. closer to 0.1 or 0.2 is better. Use false colour tool if you can as well, blue colour areas will generally show more noise.
@@ZeekEOSZ Thank you for the advise! It was quite hard for me to keep E-No. between 0.1-0.9 avoiding it going "over", but I will keep trying to get better. I am always rooting for you from Japan!
@@shupuni6964
Best option would be to use portable lighting or faster lenses like F1.4 on a speedbooster. 😎👍
Hello, I used to have the same issue with noise. Very intriguing because the footage from the camera without Magic Lantern was very clean and with low noise in the same conditions. So I imagined it was something about ML configuration or anything else.. I found out that Expo Override (exposure tab) was on. I turned it off and image improved a lot in my specific case. Maybe it is a setting worth checking.
Hi there! Just curious if there is a way to view the actual frame of what you are recording while recording? In 5k anamorphic for example and without an additional monitor? Thanks for your all you help!
Yes you can, it's choppy but I've been doing it this way for years. Amazing budget camera that can shoot internal raw. That's enough for me haha 😎👍🎥🔥
@@ZeekEOSZ Thank you so much, appreciate you brother!
Hi Zeek, I'm still messing with Magic Lantern trying to get it to work. Ran into another problem that maybe you can help with. 1080p raw is working great, but when I try to use 2.5k or 2.8k I get a message saying "2560 is not possible in the current video mode (max 2192)". I am using a Sandisk Extreme Pro. I read on a forum that it may have to do with my zoom level or something, but no idea how I change that. Any insight?
I think you have 16:9 aspect ratio enabled in tab 3. Take it off to achieve higher resolution.
What lens it is on Your "new" (6th) M? :)
- @00:03 .. @00:07
- @00:15 .. @00:19
- @00:52 .. @00:59
etc.
It's a Tailor Hobson Cooke England 16mm F3.5 C Mount Lens. I made a review/test with these lenses in this video:
ua-cam.com/video/ZmB8OoVKGDA/v-deo.html
@@ZeekEOSZ , thank you very much! 🙂
No problem 👍
Excellent video. Do you find non crop mode (aka pixel binning/line skipping) gives you moir or fringing on detail shots? On t3i, I mostly used 3x crop mode to avoid that but then, normal lenses will behave like telephoto lens.
side note: I'm thinking of getting eos-m for high-res raw video shooting. The t3i can only rec 6-sec clip at 1784x736.
Yeah you do in 1080. 5K FRTP is fine and the higher resolution modes which are what I use. I've heard the 700D is pretty neat too.
apart from this ML ,. which is the CHEAPEST 14bit RAW shooting camera ? or 12bit Raw shooting camera
None other. Blackmagic pocket original only does 12 bit. Next 14 bit camera would be RED.
@@ZeekEOSZ oh, ok ok .... sont is advertising some 16bit liner RAW .. whats liner RAW ? have any idea .. MAte you are the best !! Thanks always for the reply ... love from India
my 5D MK III lcd broke after installing MagicLantern + it wasnt recording properly too...
is it difficult to focus with that rig + rails. Can you access the battery / sd card while keeping the cage on?
Not at all. It's only one rail on the right and grip is glorious. You can access the SD and battery whilst the cage and baseplate are on, just like they were never there.
Hi everyone. Been shooting and enjoying eos m raw. Lately I've had the need for making long continuous recordings like 1hr+ if possible. Is my best option to just to shoot 10bit raw with a large capacity sd card? I'll need to upgrade if so. Anyone got experience shooting for that long on the eos M? I have a battery bank setup so runtime shouldnt be a problem. Or is there a way I can shoot a compressed codec without the file splitting? Thanks
Yes you can, in the power save option in the ML Menu, I think tab 7 off the top of my head.
I cover it in this video:
ua-cam.com/video/Crlqa0_43js/v-deo.html
I'm trying to decide whether to buy the EOS M and use the saved money to buy extra gear or purchase the Panasonic G7 can you give me a list of pros and cons or either decision?
RAW invoices a longer process, G7 is quick but lacks log profiles meaning it will have a lack of good dynamic range. The EOS M RAW can take time getting used to and if you don't have the patience, then it won't be the right camera for you.
hello @zeek. can you give me a link to the product? i somehow confuse with which camera it is to look on google, like theres a bunch of eos m type, is not eos m50, m6 or m200 right? i'm really sorry but i really dont know which one is it.. :(
This is the Original EOS M, the first one ever made.
@@ZeekEOSZ thanks! So, just to be clear, if I bought m50 or m6, 100 etc other than the original ones, I cannot use magic lantern or shoot raw like the original eos m ?
Sorry I just really blown away with this feature, completely not knowing the capability.. thanks a lott
@@dinnertime1857 only the EOS M & M2 can shoot ML Raw In the M Series Line.
Should i buy that camera instead a m50 for video?
It's up to you really. If you need good AF, then the M50 will be the better choice. The ZV-1 or ZV-E10 are also nice if you can get them cheap. I like the EOS M purely for budget old school cinematography.
Dear Zeek. Thanks for the much information in UA-cam from the EOS M and magic lantern. I have only one question: what is your solution about the full HD 1080 p Aliasing and chromatic aberation? My workflow is : mlv app uncompressed cinema dng, after davinci resolve bdm film...
No problem 👍
Shooting wide open helps, avoiding sharp edges, vintage lenses etc. Also shooting in other modes is what I prefer.
@@ZeekEOSZ thanks. I also prefer 2,8 k and 2,5 k but tomorrow i go shooting real estate (with Canon 10-18 without speedbooster) and need “no crop” . But many times when i use 1080 p i see so much of chromatic aberation “aliasing”! And also i want use dual iso (in real estate, because i like in wiew real world in the Windows) but in dual iso mod i look more aliasing... :( ! I thought it might somehow disappear with post-production (in davinci) or mlv app
@@talmacsigergo
Your best bet is the Canon 10-18 with a speedbooster and 2.5K Raw Mode @16:9 or reduced to 2.2/3K for conto recording.
Dual Iso is buggy. My next video I use the 10-18 on a speedbooster and even with the high crop modes it's super wide.
@@ZeekEOSZ super! Thanks for the information. Now i dont have speedbooster, but i think i buy asap. (Also the ring for 10-18) :)
@@ZeekEOSZ if possible, will you say a few more words about the view in which you are recording? framing or cropped live view? Both not easy... because cropped live view easy to focus but not easy to composition. Framing mod easy to composition but not easy to focus and view :) for me..
Hi Zeek, I bought one of this cameras and have been following your videos about magic lantern settings for a while. But there is something I can't wrap my head around, do the main settings of the camera affect the settings from magic lantern? I'm having a hard time making work the camera and getting the results that you are getting. All of my videos are too dark or too grainy. I´m about to throw the towel in this to be honest.
What lens are you using, where are you recording?
Raw format is data straight from the sensor, so noise will be apparent in certain cases. Exporting DNG and working in Davinci Resolve I find handles the noise very well.
I use Speedboosters and fast lenses in low light and Never increase the iso above 160 ISO.
@@ZeekEOSZ Thanks a lot for your answer! I'm using the 22mm that came with my camera, it seems that my iso was maxed out because my aperture was ahmmm small? or big? it was capturing almost no light. Definetly gonna try with other lenses in the future but for now I shall try to make do with what I have. BTW, does the speedboster change the type of lenses you can use? This is something I'm having trouble with, because if it does I would first buy the speedbooster and then look what my lense options are
You can get speedboosters in different mounts e.g. Canon. EF, Canon FD & M42 Speedbooster to EOS M.
I prefer Canon EF Speedboosters to use EF Mount Lenses.
Hello, check the Expo Override setting on the Exposure tab on Magic Lantern. I used to have this noise issue. Expo Override was on by some reason. I turned it off and noise was reduced significantly in my case. Maybe it is a configuration worth checking. Hope it helps.
Hi Zeek, I am having a lot of problems with the ML Build you use. If I go higher than 1080p ML goes crazy. Live preview is all purple lines. Even the ML menu is laggy and the camera gets warm when I am not recording. Even my sd card gets warm I tried every combination of settings but no luck. The footage I get is smashed vertically and only purple and white. I am using the same SD Card as you only 64 gb though.
Test benchmark, hopefully you haven't got a fake One.
Shoot 24fps, check it's not 30fps, set 10 Bit.

@@dorukcapanik2587 Yes 👍
hello please help.
I am using your latest build (the one on google drive).
I'm trying to run it at 50fps. SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB 170mb\s.
I'm running mod 1080p and preset HD 1080p 30/46/38fps.
The problem is the distortion on the screen when I hold the eos m horizontally everything is pulled up as if anamorphic... When i start to rotate in 90 degrees everything is distorted.
I have tried a bunch of builds all the same. can't find information
Maybe you can make a video on how to deal with this...
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!!!
I replied on Facebook 😎👍
I've beeing trying to make ML work from my Sandisk Extreme PRO 64 and 128 Gb, but no luck at all. First option I try is to place ML files into the cards, and then boot from de camera, just updating the firmware. This way I'm getting this error with both of the cards: "ML directory not found! please copy all ML files." Second option I'm trying is to make this two cards bootable with Macboot script, then placing the ML files on them, and finally use another 16 GB card to boot ML from the camera. With this 16 GB card it boots normally, but when I change to one of the other cards, ML is not loading correctly, giving this error "Error loading ML/MODULES/EOSM_202.sym..." and making weird things, like not adapting to the size of the camera LCD, duplicating several times the ML folder in the cards... I don't know what more can I do to fix this! Please, any idea?...
Is your Mac updated to Big Sur?
@@ZeekEOSZ Hi Zeek!, yes it is...
@@ErreKaTrece
That's why...Big Sur is a pain with ML. I'm still on the previous OS. I believe it can be fixed if the cards are formatted I think from memory as either FAT or FAT32 or something, can't remet off the top of my head. Also if you have access to a windows system, that would be a better way. Big Sur is annoying..
@@ZeekEOSZ Oh! would it be because of that?... I'm gonna try in another OS and let you know. Thanks a lot for the quick response and for your work with all these videos Zeek, seriously. You were the main reason for me to grab one of this little Eos M and give it a try!

Is there a way to install magic lantern on Canon M50?
I wish but not, at least not yet. Just needs development, thought not as easy as it seems. I love my M50, using it a lot recently. 😎👍
so would technically any of shooting modes work, the ones you show just works best with a monitor? and what does FRTP stand? what’s the difference between the regular 2.5k and the 2.5k frtp
This is part two as mentioned in the title.

@@ZeekEOSZ thanks man, heavily appreciate it!
What kind of battery life do you get while shooting raw?
An hour or so on each battery. After a recording I turn the battery off and one for me can last around 2 hours. Vintage lenses or manual lens will get longer battery life, in comparison to Electronic AF lenses e.g. 18-55.
I normally carry around 4 in my pocket or bag and end up using only two.
@@ZeekEOSZ Far out. I wonder if there's a dummy battery to usb connector available?Adding a small power bank would be nice for this little rig.
@@jesseyules
There is. I did a video about it a while back, but you don't need a big one:
ua-cam.com/video/sqCn-wV8F0U/v-deo.html
You can get Eos m dummy adapters off eBay or Amazon with USB. If you're planning on shooting continuous for a few hours they're a good option.
Is there a way to record more than 30 minutes with this camera ?
Yes there is. In the ML Menu I think tab 7/8, there is a powersave option. Disable record limit.
@@ZeekEOSZ first of all, Thank you so much, I’ve watched all your videos and I have learned so much about ML and the eos m, I’m planning on buying 2 of these for my atem mini, so I was wondering also if the eos m with ML being used through hdmi will turn off after 30 ?
It won't turn off after 30 minutes. You can disable this function.

Hey Zeek, when I'm filming 1080p RAW, I have weird artifacts (kinda looking like chromatic aberrations). Do you know what could be the problem?
