An interesting -and possible to implement- feature would be to turn the blue LED of the LiveView/Record button to a recording indicator.

For now this LED turns on only when you connect the camera to a printer but I've always thought it would be more useful as a recording indicator.

But those pictures don't really help, since both were comparing videos recorded at different resolutions. It would help to have two videos, taken under the same conditions, but both 720p --- one with qscale, one without.

Are you guys running across anything that tells the true shutter counts in the camera?
I understand that canon techs have some kind of proprietary backdoor maintenance software that they use to check this. The numbers must be in the code somewhere.

Oh.. I didn't noticed that.. sorry I thought it was a different sample image.. by the way I tried testing ML video using Qscale -16. I didn't really noticed any difference at all... maybe because I am using 720p resolution.

Im using MF, I cant trust the AF yet.. :D I'll be making another video comparing all Qscale values for us to identify if there's really a difference in quality.
