- Description
- MLV (Magic Lantern Video) is a raw video container format developed for the Magic Lantern firmware project, used on Canon DSLR cameras. It stores uncompressed or minimally processed raw sensor data along with audio and metadata, allowing high-quality video capture for post-production color grading. It is primarily used by filmmakers and videographers seeking RAW video output from consumer Canon cameras.
- It is a Motion JPEG that captures sequence images in a multimedia format — commonly used on digital cameras and webcams. It is a large file size that can be easily edited because of its low compression levels.
