I looked at the Magic Lantern web page. It seems to support true "raw histograms" and and automatic "ETTR". These are the only two things I am actually interested in. Overall , is this a good and useful addition for the Canon 5D-II and Canon 5D-III. Are there any concerns when using. It seems to run as a "cf-card add in at camera startup". I assume that simply doing a hard format (by Windows) on the card fully removes the magic lantern from the card.

  1. you will only be able to check the raw histogram the moment after you took the picture. If you try to check older pictures the histogram will just show a jpg histogram.
  2. Don't just long exposure noise reduction because then you will get a raw histogram of the dark frame.

If you format your CF in the computer, the boot flag in camera will still be changed. Instead you should format in camera and press Q or something in the menu. It is written how to do.

My favorite feature is the intervalometer, but zebras and a few other features are great as well.

0 concerns about using it.

I HAD ML on my 6D, but didn't find the still image features useful enough (or I just didn't know how to properly use them), so I removed it recently. It seems to be more geared for video than still images.

ML is primarily intended for video shooters. There are "potentially relevant" features for still shooters, but I too lost interested after loading it on my 6D and eventually just removed it from my cards altogether.

Thanks for the information. Since the raw histogram is not visible on "previous images", I think I will avoid ML and stay with the concept of UniWB in spite of the green LCD display cast

I have it on an SD card for my 5D3. Besides RAW video (which I haven't used as much as I thought I would), the zebras feature is pretty useful for Rokinon manual focus lenses, which do not have focus confirmation (like Zeiss lenses and TS-E lenses do).

You can not run it simply by powering on the camera without the ML card.

The only disadvantage is that setting the boot flag makes the camera power on a bit more slowly. AFAIK there is no way to unset the boot flag, so once you enable it it's there for life.

I was able to remove the boot flag by re-installing the original firmware.

Disclaimer, I'm a fanboy and therefore my opinions my be biased I initially installed ML on my 70D. Liked it so much that I bought my 6D only after confirming it would accept ML. The 6D had ML installed 30minutes after I got it home. Most of my photography is landscape and macro, never video. Favorite features are:

Manual exposure lock -- you set the exposure triangle(in manual) and the camera will adjust the shutter speed to follow the aperture you set.

Highlight clipping -- I use ETTR and it's great because it shows the highlights as they are about to get clipped. Actually, I don't like ML's "Auto-ETTR".

Dual ISO - It shoots the shadows at a higher ISO, this increases the DR -- there are some drawbacks to it, but still worth it.

RAW histogram -- Canon cameras are fairly well known to not being able to handle reds and oranges. I use the RAW histogram only when shooting those colors.

Timed bulb exposures -- set the camera in Bulb and you can set the shutter speeds for as long as you need, no need for a cable release.

The reason I might like ML so much is that 95% of my photography is in manual mode and I like ETTR.

The only issue that has come up a couple of times is that some the features are not available when turning the camera on, this gets fixed by shutting the camera off and back on. Some people find an issue with the fact you have to wait about 5-10 seconds after opening the memory card's door before removing the card.

Reviews for "Magic Spoon Cereal: The Guilt-Free Indulgence You've Been Waiting For"

1. Jane Doe - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the "Magic Spoon" cereal I bought from Kroger. I had heard so many great things about it, but when I tried it, I found it to be extremely bland. The flavors I bought - cocoa and frosted - had a very subtle taste, almost like they were watered down. The texture was also quite off-putting, as the cereal felt very dry and chalky in my mouth. Overall, I think there are much better options out there for cereal, and I wouldn't recommend this one.
2. John Smith - 1 star - I must say I completely regret buying the "Magic Spoon" cereal from Kroger. The packaging looked so appealing, and I thought it would be a healthier alternative to regular cereal. However, upon trying it, I found it to be overly sweet. The sugar content was just too much, and I couldn't taste anything beyond the sweetness. Additionally, the cereal got soggy very quickly, making it even less enjoyable to eat. I won't be purchasing this cereal again.
3. Sarah Johnson - 2 stars - I bought the "Magic Spoon" cereal from Kroger thinking it would be a great low-carb option, but I was left disappointed. While it claims to be keto-friendly, I found that it didn't keep me satiated for long and I ended up feeling hungry shortly after eating it. The texture was also quite strange - it had a weird crunch that didn't feel natural. The flavors were okay, but nothing exceptional. Overall, I expected more from this cereal, and I don't think it's worth the price.
