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.
