I did it again and it worked. The adjustement stayed in canon menu even after disabling dottune menu. That was with 18-135 lense. Works like charm. Sadly, with 35 f2.0 canon IS lense the procedure doesn't end. LCD screen goes black and nothing happens. After few minutes camera goes standby. Both are registered. With prime lens i'v chcecked box in menu only to adjust "W".

Thank You for reply. Indeed, looks like the module didn't write the values in canon menu. It suggested +2, and when i checked W and T were on "0" in canon menu.

I have a question about dottune. It seems to work with my camera. After the adjustement procedure do i have to have dottune module active (loaded) or can i disable it ? If i disable the dottune module will the microadjustment still present?

Hi,  first big thx for your effort in developing magic lantern. I have an idea of adding adittional functionality to magic lantern and canon DSLR.

I'm a hunter but i hunt more with 70d lately then with riffle. Recently i'm starting to train in long distance shooting (target shooting) and i thought about buying observing scope not to have to walk to the target board.

70d with 150-600mm tamron has big adventage over observing scope - i don't have to change position to look throu observing scope. Just turn head and check the lcd display. The other thing great about magic lanter is that it shows the distance between the camera and the target.

Is it possible to include a simple ballistic calculator module in magic lantern?
Youser would provide ballistic data for ammunition he uses, and the program would calculate (already has distance, earth derivation is known, youser could enter the actual temperature and atm. pressure) and show on the lcd how high/left/right should the shooter aim, or simpler how many MOA adjustment on the scope should be made.

Perhaps dslr coud be also helpful during low light hunting - in my country before shooting we have to recognize target with binoculars - i think that good dslr coud give brighter image then binoculars (70d with cinestyle and 18-135mm high iso looks promissing for this task)

Excuse my English, thank you again, and regards
Tom
