  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

"We have been hearing mutterings of this for the past few weeks. “Top DPs in Europe testing out RAW recording on Canon 5Dmkii”. It all sounded like nonsense didn’t it? Well I can exclusive reveal today as the embargo I was given 0001 BST 1/4/10 has passed that Canon have done exactly what we wanted."

April Fool’s joke made Philip Bloom :-)
 
I think Phillip must be in the UK.
 
Phillip is, in fact, back in the UK. And also very, very evil. :P
 
Okay - so the link to download the firmware takes you to a Celine Dion fanpage.
Kudos on some nice photoshopping of the Canon menus and some credible specs. I just wanted it to be true so badly :)
traps for young players eh?
 
I decided to download the software and try it on my R1 and it works, which is very strange, but it gave me the ability to record 5K without the M-X upgrade. Thanks Celine!
 
"I have yet to use the firmware but I understand the much requested 1080i 50i/ 60i interlaced mode has been added for the coveted “video look”."

I CRAVE the "video look" too, RED gimme 2700i on Epic!
 
This announcement just days before the start of NAB in Vegas is surely going to upset a lot of people. Red’s notoriously tight lipped Jim Jannard has released the following official statement regarding this news…”Shit.”


lol thats funny... but i doubt anyone at RED will be anything less than ecstatic at NAB this year
 
This news is a little early.... April Fools Day is tomorrow.
