Hi Entaglers, this is my first post to the dev list, but almost certainly
not my last.

I'm a freelance filmmaker with a Canon t4i DSLR, and I've been tinkering
with entagle for a year or so. I really like it in concept, and as I'm a
dyed-in-the-wool linux user, it's really my only option, to see what I'm
shooting on my linux laptop.

However, I had a gig last week, and tried to use entangle in a "production
environment, and it failed me in a big way. The first issue is that I can
not Preview with the camera "rolling", so it's not usable for the Director
to watch while I shoot. The second big issue is that the Preview is of the
camera (raw?) image, and it looks great as a still, but really
misrepresents what I'm going to get on the video. Not only shows the wrong
resolution (hiding niose, moire, etc. but the color representation is WAY
off! (thank goodness for color-correction)

I can deal with the low refresh/ frame-rate, understanding the limits of
the USB connection, but I would be really really happy to use entangle for
professional video, eventually..


Wouldn't Magic Lantern with RAW 720p/24 (for T4i) be a better option ? I mean over live view on the screen.

Yes, post is a lot more work, but the results are great.

Best regards,
 Jesper
