Maybe trivial, but it makes me doubtful

In build: Nightly Builds - try the very latest stuff here -NOT FOR RAW

-> autoexec.bin size is 2.84Mo
There's a raw_rec.mo (30.1ko) module [a1ex RAW build?] even this build is supposed to be 'not for RAW'.

-> autoexec.bin size is 418ko
There's a raw_rec.mo (32.5ko) module [a.d. RAW build?].

I don't see why autoexec.bin size is so different between twos. Is it because a1ex's build is made to work with many cameras? And a.d.'s build is just designed (optimised?) for 5D mkII?

Hi!

With all new features we have now (RAW video, video log, etc.) it would be easier if our cameras could be recognized as a mass storage device, isn't?

We could download all files not seen by the original Canon software without remove/replace the memory card; it's not really a problem for SD cards, but it's not very good for CF cards to be remove/replace many times (because of pins).
And it would be faster; just plug the camera and go.

Maybe it could be done with a module file?

Hi,

It's a useful feature, maybe it's possible to incorporate it in ML?
-> take picture with curtain close, as Canon Frw do when you select long exposure noise reduction, but on demand.

Some threads talking about this (last year), but without feature request.
'Sure that astronomers will be interested.

Hi all

Old user (ML >=0.1.9) back to try the last v2.3 on a 5D mkII AIir & a regular 550D.
Also a CHDK lover (on a SX200)..
