Hacked T3i vs T4i...which is better?

66mbs hacked T3i or 40mbs T4i?

Neither - hacks really cause more issues than they are worth. Ask a friend of mine that hired a dp with hacked camera... footage was choppy throughout - even with fast cards. Just not worth the effort or the battery drain.

Magic Lantern on the T2i/T3i is very stable. I used it on my T2i over the weekend to shoot a film for the 48 Hour Film Festival. I have had ZERO of the problems Vader mentions.

Our second camera for the film was a T4i borrowed from a friend. It wasn't nearly as versatile as my hacked T2i, but for low-light it kicked my T2i's butt. The new built-in denoise algorithm does a good job and I got cleaner footage out of the camera. While I had to use Magic Bullet Denoiser to get rid of the noise from my T2i footage.

For daylight or very well lit shots, there was no noticeable difference in footage.
