+===== Model Capabilities =====
+[[http://builds.magiclantern.fm/#/features|full list of model features ]]
+[[http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?board=34.0|Camera specific board ]]
+===== Workstations =====
+Editing
+ raw video has become easier recently with more software coming out that
+ can handle it, but you still need some horsepower in your
+workstation.  Adobe CC seems to do most of its work with the CPU
+& RAM and ideally you want at least a quadcore and 32 GB.
+[[http://www.videoguys.com/Guide/C/DIY%2bSystems.aspx|DIY workstations ]]
+Davinci
+ Resolve makes more use of your GPU and renders quicker than CC in my
+experience, so if you use Resolve more, it makes sense to spend your
+money on better GPU's as Resolve will make use of as many as you can
+install. [[http://provideocoalition.com/cmg_keyframes/story/adobe-premiere-pro-and-multiple-gpus|dual GPU in Premiere Pro ]]
+USB 3.0 is a lot faster at transferring than 2.0, so make sure you have that for dumping your footage.
+SSD
+ is preferable to HDD for a few reasons, raw speed being one and
+consistent speed regardless of free space another, but they are
+expensive and different configurations of HDD's can work well.
+Realistically you need 4 more drives either all in a raid configuration
+or two in raid and two to handle previews, renders, scratch and
+projects. If your project is heavy on the photos/audio, you will see a
+slight performance boost from storing those files on a different drive
+to your video files.
+Buy a quality PSU that can easily
+handle your needs (at least 750W). Make sure it has the right
+connections for your components.
+You are going to need a
+ cooling system of some kind for your CPU and a heatsink with fans is
+pretty much foolproof, but a lot of high end users have water cooling.
+Corsair H systems are great and work straight out of the box, but custom
+ systems are not that hard to install and you can run your GPU through
+them too. At this point you have a lot of heat being generated and the
+biggest case you can get is going to help you, but even then you need to
+ keep all the cables tidy and arrange your fans to expel warm air from
+the top and draw cold air from the bottom. I'm thinking about getting
+rid of my case and modifying a cabinet I have so I can install my system
+ in that with soundproofing and high powered fans. This will make
+installing extra drives easier which is a regular occurence when
+shooting raw.
+===== Conversion Software =====
+Raw
+ video needs to be converted to a sequence of digital negatives before
+you can edit it. Here is a [[http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/RAW_Video|list ]] of current ways to do
+this.

+[[http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=11566.0|FFMPEG now officially supports Magic Lantern Video ]], which means
+that "a library that is widely used by a number of programs that do
+video will have native support for MLV. Which means any of the programs
+that use that library will defacto have support for MLV. Which means
+that you will be able to playback MLV files with any of these already
+existing programs. Almost all open source video applications use this
+library (called ffmpeg)."
+===== Editing Software =====

+===== Workflows =====
+Workflows
+ are job specific, constantly changing, inconsistent across the
+different platforms and a reflection of your 'technique', but there are
+some principles we all adhere to:
+Set up your camera.
+Shoot.
+Prepare for edit.
+Edit.
+Output.
+Setting
+ up your cam with ML can be daunting at first, there must be 100 new
+options for you to worry about, so in the first place you should switch
+all of them off. A lot of the features you may never use depending on
+the nature of your work, but it pays to understand them all. Some
+features affect other features in unexpected ways such as exact fps
+disabling sound, but to my knowledge ML is pretty stable and a lot of
+time is spent on making sure it won't fry your camera.
+Shooting
+with your Canon is made easier by ML's ability to customize your camera
+for your job. Things like auto exposure, 14 bit video, cropmarks etc all
+ go a long way to improving your production and you can program ML to
+show only the settings you use to help you navigate your menus under
+pressure.
+Once you have your material in the can you then need
+to prepare for edit and if you are shooting raw video you are going to
+spend a lot of time doing this. Both raw and mlv require converting to
+an image format your NLE can work with, although there are plugins for
+importing raw to Premiere. Adobe Camera Raw seems to be the favourite
+colour corrector for most people, Davinci Resolve is my choice for
+creating proxies, Premiere for editing and either back to Resolve or
+Camera Raw via a dynamic link to After Effects. I've got a hex core CPU
+and 3GB GPU on Windows 7 and Resolve seems to be the fastest at
+rendering, whilst After Effects gives more post production options.
