Vimeo user Luis Roberto dos Santos just posted this short clip from his Canon 600D, modified with a "pre-alpha" version of the Magic Lantern RAW firmware .
The clip was recorded to a slow card - so there is some flickering and macro blocking - but it blows standard fuzzy Canon .H264 compression away:

If Magic Lantern is successful at stabilizing the code, this will be huge - possibly bigger than the news that the $2900 5D Mark III had been modified to shoot RAW video.
RAW video from a $549 still/video camera body? I'll say it again - these are great times to be a filmmaker!
