Bruno Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Not too sure what to make of this, but could be cool... "Video ‘stills burst’ mode 30/60 fps" http://www.canonrumors.com/2013/03/eos-7d-mark-ii-test-camera-cr1/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurtinMinorKey Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 It would be sweet if it did something like 10 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgharding Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Lets hope this one is actually a step up! I find it hard to get my hopes up now with Canon, but fingers crossed.... A burst mode would be great, as would a real 1080p/50. Hmm... I'm once bitten, twice shy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Andrew Reid Posted March 29, 2013 Administrators Share Posted March 29, 2013 If true this at least shows they have finally moved on from analogue sensors. Only a digital readout can do such high continuous bursts. Knowing Canon this is the sensor they will use for the next 10 APS-C cameras over 4 years! It better, therefore, be good.

Julian Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 It could be 1920p video saved as 60 seperate jpg frames.. ;) Andrew Reid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leang Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 unless it's super industrial grade mechanism, you're not gonna see 60fps still capture on such bodies. this is the benefit of mirrorless tech. forgot to particularly mention RAW camera.

P337 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Magic Lantern has been working on something similar to this, I had it on a 7D alpha build back in October 2012. The Magic Lantern implementation saved the LCD's live view buffer files as jpegs(not mjpeg), I recorded 24 jpgs per second for one minute on my card (some dropped frames though) but it showed no sign of stopping on it's own. My jpeg files were 4:2:2 and 98-623KB, which are 15:1 to 2.5:1 compression ratios of the 1.5MB 422 YUV originals used for the live view LCD. Except they were only 1056x704 images. I've heard the newer 6D uses 1816x1210 images which is closer to 1920x1080 but the Magic Lantern guys are supposedly having trouble saving these to jpegs on the 6D. Maybe Canon is working on a way to bring a 1080p60 422 jpeg variant of this to the new model, which would be grand but I'm trying not to get my hopes up. Even CanonRumors doesn't know how real these specs are. jgharding 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would obviously be something that would only work in live view, with mirror lock up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgharding Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 If the Nikon 1 can drop so many RAW frames a second out into a buffer, there doesn't much reason a device with superior processing and heat dissipation couldn't do so (or more) with APS-C. I suppose the biggest issue (aside from intentional market division) is indeed heat. Those canon bodies are pretty densely packe with stuff...

Not just mirrorless. You can have an electronic shutter mode on a DSLR in live view as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
