Title: 60d shuts down while recording RAW-Timelapse
Post by: DerMax on April 19, 2014, 01:13:20 PM
Hey there,

I'm using ML 2.3 on my 60d.

When I enable the Raw module and shoot timelapse (FPS-Override set to 0.5fps) i get around 200 frames until the camera shuts down completely. If I restart it the .Raw file ist broken and can't be converted to .dng's

Is it a common bug?
Or is it just me and my Camera?

Thank you.

Max

Probably the buffer limit.
Don't really understand why you would be using the RAW module to do this, as its not the best.
Why not do a timelapse the proper way & just use the Intervalometer with your picture setting set to RAW (in canon menu).
However, if you're worried about your shutter then you could use Silent Picture, which creates 14bit DNGs, in conjunction with the Intervalometer.
It'll be the same workflow as the RAW module & get you bigger files that you can do pans etc...

I tried it the way you suggested, but I have still the same Problem :(
if I set my cam to Intervalometer -> Take a Pic every second, and switch to silent DNG i get around 200frames until the Cam suddenly shuts down.

I have no Idea how to work around it. :(

check your auto power off setting (there should be a warning in the ML menu for this, is there not?)
