Hi All!

I wanted to share my custom cropmark to be added to the Magic Lantern firmware that allows for a 2.35 cropmark and a shaded cropped area.

The main problem is not being able to transpose the cropmarks to an external monitor, and I created a file to print onto a transparency to use as an overlay onto your field monitors.

Hope someone else will find this useful. Happy shooting...and get ready...only 5 days until 24p!
