Yes I understand what you’re saying.
Now the only issue is: if it doesn’t add that noise with the kit lens, then it’s not Magic Lantern, otherwise both kit lens and 50mm would have the noise.
Also, I’ve seen footage online of raw video shot with the 550D/T2i and I never saw that noise. Maybe there’s a way to remove it in post…?

Gotta do that test once I have the camera with me

Thank you

I still have to do the test, but i think it only happens when shooting RAW with that lens (50mm 1.8f).
Shooting RAW with the kit lens doesn’t and shooting H264 with the 50mm doesn’t either.
So I guess there’s something between the RAW and that specific lens that is causing it, right? Otherwise all RAW footage would be like that…
But I will try it again, both RAW and H264 with both lenses and see what the final results are and post them here ☺

Thanks for your reply!

Hi Steve!

Thank you so much for your reply.
This is actually the DNG file open in Adobe Camera Raw, so before importing it to Premiere. And no zoom in.
I know how the typical noise caused by the high ISO looks like and this is different, that’s why this is so intriguing. I don’t have it when shooting H264 though. Also, not 100% sure, maybe will need to do another test, but I think this is only visible when using the 50mm 1.8 lens from Canon. I think it doesn’t do it when using the kit lens 18-55. Gotta test it to make sure.

This noise almost looks like a “fixed” noise on top of the image. Image grabbing a texture image, creating a new layer on top of the video and changing the blend mode. Even though the noise kinda moves, it seems more “stable” that the noise caused by the ISO, which is like “crazy ants” running around, if you know what I mean hahaha

This is just frustrating, because now that I found that I can shoot RAW with my 550D, I really wanted to have a clear image…

Best,
Tiago
