Topic: Magic Lantern 1080p resolution crop marks (Canon DSLR)
Not sure if there's already a thread for this...
For those of you animating in-camera, I've made a template for animating at 1080p with your camera set to S (4.5mp/2592 x 1728). Most software crops the image rather than resizing it, so even at the lowest resolution, part of the image will still be cropped when imported into your software.
You need magic lantern for this, so if you don't know how to install it, then check out a tutorial (Here's a good one)
Anyway, this is the template (here's the BMP download link)
And here's the 2.40:1 cinemascope version, for some reason it only shows up as an outline (BMP download)
You just need to save it and copy it into the "cropmks" folder on your memory card
this is what it looks like-
Basically it will allow you to animate in camera with a preview of what your image will look like when imported into your animation software.
