5D mk 2 firmware update coming
Quote:If you want the source file you just download it.
It is still only a 720p file that you obtain.
The problem is you could:
Use an entirely different file architecture. Something that can have larger than 4GB filesize and allows creation/read/mod timestamps.
or do as you suggested and "seemlessly" link the files - which would create numerous problems when a read obtains two allocated 4GB files witch share the same clusters.
Isn't it much easier just to film one file, and then then start filming again after 12minutes? - I believe this is the decision that was made at canon.

Nope. If you upload a 1080 file that's what you can download - even though Vimeo converts it to 720 for viewing in its viewer.
We've had this discussion before on EPZ, and I had to upload a 1080 file to Vimeo just to prove it to the unbelievers. Lol!

I only ever get 1280x720's
!... Awesome that they do offer the 1080 sources! Will have to find some. 
Canon should really introduce more customisable settings for the video recording; particularly the settings for the downsampling from the CMOS. These kinds of power user settings are very lacking in the 5DmkII on video mode - They give you a WB SHIFT/BKT grid for stills but not downsampling options for video...
But I can understand if they do not want to merge too far into XLH1 territory. (Fantastic camcorder btw.)
Quote: Try this one. Just chosen at random - not on the basis of any merit.
You do, of course, have to log in to Vimeo before you can download a source file (as opposed to the Vimeo-rendered one).
I got a full 1080 on that one!
Guess I only ever downloaded 720's before. Thanks!
