66mbps Hack For 5D

Magic Lantern has come out with a hack that increases the bit rate to 66 mbps for the 5D MkII.

What's the catch?  Several.  First, this is a Beta version and should be used with extreme caution, as with all hacks.

The big catch is if the CF card can't keep up with the data rate the camera will display a buffer-level bar on the LCD and stop recording when it's full.

For you techie's out there check out this Google group.
