Title: Created cropmarks for shooting Hyperlapses

I created a few cropmarks for shooting hyperlapses.
It can help you with picking a reference point for each frame.

Thought I'd share:

Nice -- do you have a link for us to download and install them into our cameras?

Hi - right-click image > save image as...

All 4 are 720x480 and tested on my 700d/T5i. They stopped working after 1 sec. So we need originals.

Good luck

I created them by following the steps in this tutorial: http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Cropmarks

It does work on my 550d.

I couldn't do the last step:

QuoteTo have a usable RLE compressed .bmp (required only for 60D and 1100D, but good for saving memory on all camera) we need to use the Sztupy's tool (convertrle.rb ). NOTE: the compress RLE function in photoshop don't make an usable cropmark (it will hang your camera)

I'm trying to find out why your excellent cropmarks won't work on my 700d. I'm experimenting and when I find a solution, I'll be sure to post it.
