Put the beta on my 5d tonight- defiantly a cool tool- not good for much motion but this HDR mode would work wonderfully for static or low movement shots- takes a long time to process though.
Canon Hack (Magic Lantern) brings HDR video to T2i and others
- Thread starter HHL
- Start date
Let the party begin!!! I love your work Hunter!!! So glad you're using this...can't wait to see some footy from you. Merry Christmas!

Test 1 of Magic Lantern HDR on a 5D markII with
Mosaic Optical Anti Alias Filter.
Lens: Nikon 50mm f 1.4
Cinestyle Profile at 24P
Showing 3 out 5 HDR modes 3EV,4EV & 5EV.
I also concur on the issue with fast motion, (note the passing truck in window) I think this is aggravated by using 24P,
I will do human motion test next and will include 30P so there will be more frames to interpolate as this will be halved and interpolated.
I agree with Hunter that this is a cool tool to have.

Thanks Ted. Could you explain your workflow/post method to produce the HDR?
Amazing, here's my quick take. Would love to hear about people's workflows. Trying to subtly get more dynamic range.

The 5D ML download is provided with a scripted and thus automatic workflow in just one click.
A cmd line activates Avisynth, Virtualdub and Enfuse. After which a folder is provided you with Both Raw streams and a third combined HDR stream.
You choose your approach.
The test I showed used the automatically combined HDR stream(sequential files) placed it on my timeline and apply the post process you want.
In my case I just placed the cinestyle LUT on it for the purpose of this this test.
How are people getting clean tone mapping? When I try I get most over exposure out with the luma key, but it always seems to leave some of the excess from the under or over exposure like a dark or light line or artifacts that move (I'm doing the one frame over method at 50%). It's small but very noticeable. It's almost like not getting a clean key with a green screen. Ugh. lol.
Wow. Looks great. I cannot get a clean blend no matter what. There's always some awful artifacts and if it's nearly clean once the camera moves to another area the setting I had aren't good enough anymore and need to be altered. Very frustrating, especially when seeing such great results from other and wondering what on earth I could be doing differently.
