通常バランスオーディで長いケーブルを利用する際には、HOTとCOLDの2つの信号を別位相で伝送します。このためノイズを打ち消すことが可能です。マジックランタンのバランス機能では、オーディオチップの持つバランスINを有効化するので、特別な装置がなくても長いケーブルのバランスマイクが利用できます。ただし、音質はプリアンプにはかないません。
普通バランスマイクは、XLRコネクタで取り外しも簡単なおかつロックもかかりますし、キャノンのDSLRのミニピンに変換することもできます。バランスのプロ用マイクは簡単にDSLRに取り付けでき、良い音質・S/N比が得られます。

Elapsed
: duration of the current clipRemain.Card
: estimated amount of recording time remaining on the card.Remain.4GB
: estimated amount of recording time until reaching 4GB (or until filling the card, whichever comes first).Unlike Canon's timer which assumes constant bitrate, ML timer assumes variable bitrate and works even if QScale is enabled. However, due to variations in bitrate, the estimated value will fluctuate a lot, and this is normal.
If this setting is ON
, Magic Lantern will write out a metadata file for the each movie to MVI_1234.LOG
(numbered after the movie). The log file contains lens and exposure info, as well as a timestamp every time any of the parameters is changed during recording.
Log files are placed in the same folder as the movies: DCIM/100CANON/
, 101CANON
etc.
Tip: you can rename LOG
files to CSV
and import them in MS Excel.
While this setting is on, movie recording will restart automatically, unless you stop it. There will be a few seconds skipped during restarting.

This option locks the shutter value in movie mode (you will be able to change it only from ML menu).
This setting alters FPS for all video modes. Only undercranking works well.
FPS is changed by altering two timer values (let's call them Timer A and Timer B). Increasing any of these values results in lower FPS. Aside from FPS, changing these timers may alter shutter speed and rolling shutter.

Tip: you can cancel the exposure earlier by half-pressing the shutter ボタン.

This feature is useful for avoiding camera shake.
In Movie mode, the Wave

While recording, the Near

modes can trigger the rack focus operation.
Start/stop remote audio trigger. To take a picture (or start recording a movie), make some loud noise, for example, clap your hands or pop a balloon.
Tip: with the audio trigger you can sync a video recorded without sound with an external audio track (see this topic)
Be careful: this may trigger the shutter from the sounds made by camera (like focus beep or noise from operating the ボタンs).
Motion detection in LiveView.
Trigger modes:
Exposure change
: it only reacts to brightness changes. Detects large moving subjects which cause significant change in exposure.Frame difference
: it computes the difference between last two frames A and B (luma channel only); this detects smaller movements which do not change exposure.Detection time is somewhere between 200 and 300 ms according to DataGhost's speed test; it's faster with silent pictures.

Silent Picture
: simple, low-resolution. Image resolution is usually around 1 or 2 MPix, and depends on the current mode (zoom or not, recording or not, and movie resolution). For almost-FullHD resolution (1720×974), choose FullHD
to record a dummy movie.Silent Pic Hi-Res
: emulates high-resolution by taking a matrix of small silent pics, in zoom x5
mode. You need to have the camera on a tripod and the subject should be static (a picture is taken in a few seconds). Could be useful for focus stacking or for timelapse without increasing shutter count.Silent picture setting is applied to intervalometer and remote triggers. It will also go to LiveView when you press the shutter half-way. Therefore, you should only enable this setting when you actually use it.
Images are saved in DCIM/1xxCANON/

This will increase rack focus accuracy, but may cause stutter with certain lenses.This is end point of rack focus (X focus steps from the start point, i.e. from current focus point).
First you have to set the end point. Focus the lens, then press SET

. This means the end point is now assigned to current focus position.
At this point, you will see the LiveView image and set the start point using left and right keys (just like with follow focus) or the main dial (scrollwheel). The start point will be always the current focus point (which you are changing); the end point will remain fixed.

The hyperfocal distance is the point of focus where everything from half that distance to infinity falls within the depth of field. This is the largest depth of field possible for the current f-number.
The nearest distance in which objects appear in focus.
The farthest distance in which objects appear in focus.

Adjusts the saturation in LiveView. It doesn't affect recording. This helps you focus without being distracted by color.
Values: Normal (no effect), High, Very high, Zero (grayscale).
Photo mode only: this feature increases the brightness in LiveView, making it usable in very dark scenes (where Canon's LiveView would be pitch black). Combine this with FPS override for better low-light performance.
For movie mode, use ML digital ISOs for a similar effect.
This affects the colors and brightness of the on-screen information (including LiveView overlays, Canon menus and ML menus). Range from: Bright (default), Dark, Bright Gray, Dark Gray, Dark Red. Tip: dark themes may reduce the eye strain during night shooting.
Clear bitmap overlays from LiveView display.

: In this mode, all the overlays are erased from the screen (100% clean display) when the camera is idle (i.e. you don't press any ボタンs).Always
: In this mode, all the overlays are erased from the screen; you will have to change shooting settings blindly. You can still use the menus.Tip: this feature may be useful with External Recorders, since it removes the focus box and other graphics from the display.With this setting you can choose to show the Focus box in liveview or hide it when not needed.
This option will force a low-resolution mode on HDMI displays (720×480), which avoids black screen when you start/stop recording.

This will make the DOF preview ボタン sticky (so you no longer have to hold it pressed).
Note: enabling DOF preview will block certain ボタンs.
Tip: enable Exposure Override to preview DOF without blocking the ボタンs.
This will make the half-shutter press sticky (so you no longer have to hold it pressed).
Tip: use this to prevent the camera from turning off LiveView after 30 minutes.
