Title: Wanted: temperatures from your cams
Post by: escho on December 25, 2013, 08:16:45 PM
Introduction

MagicLantern show temperatures, which are metered somewhere in the camerabody. In canon-firmware, these temeratures are called efic_temp, so maybe they are metered on the efic_chip. These efic_temp-values are raw values, which have to be converted to Celsius or Fahrenheit for to know, what they mean. This convertion is done by MagicLantern.

For the convertion, a mathematical function is needed. And tests are needed to find out this function. These tests have to be done for all types of camera, because it is hardly probable, that all cameras show a steady behaviour.

There are two sorts of tests, which can be done


1.
You can meter the temperatures in the camera-body with a infrared thermometer. With these temperatures and the corresponding efic_temps, you can develop a function. Done!
A little problem is, that not so many guys own an infrared thermometer, I guess. And when you have such a thermometer, where exactly in the camerabody do you want to meter the temeratures?

2.
If you take a picture, a temperature is written into exif-data. I don´t know, where the temperature-sensor is located, canon uses for the exifs. Maybe, it is the efic_temp-sensor, maybe it is another one. But no matter what sensor it is, the temperature-values are in the exifs. And it is much easier to extract these temperatures from the exifs, than metering temperatures with a thermometer, which you don´t have.

So I decided to use the second methode with the exifs to find out the convert-functions. But I have only a nice little 600D. For this camera I can do this test. But for all other cameras, I need your help.

How can you help testing


1. preparation

1.1 Take a piece of paper and write down the camera-name and the firmware-version, you have.
1.2 Write down, which ML-build you use during the test

2. testing

2.1 Turn on your camera in video-mode and start recording a normal mov-video to heat the camera
2.2 While recording, push the shutter release from time to time, to capture a CR2- or jpec-pic.
2.3 In the debug menue, you can see the camera-temperatures.
2.4 Write down Celsius (if available) and raw-temperature in the moment, you take a picture.
2.5 I at least need exif-temperatures from 20°C to 60°C to be able to work out accurate converting-functions.
2.6 The video-lenght will be 30 minutes, maybe more to get enough temperature-values.

3. test finished

3,1 Download the pictures to your harddisk
3.2 Extract the exif-temperatures from these pictures
3.2.1 On linux you can do this in a terminal: exiftool -CameraTemperature *.CR2
3.2.2 On windows and mac, I don´t know, how to do this
3.3 Write down these exif-temperatures with the corresponding ML-temperatures, you have listed before.

4. Contributing

4.1 Show your measurements here in this thread.
4.2 Write down the ML-temperatures and the corresponding exif-temperatures. Follow this form:
4.3 raw-temperature     Celsius (if available)     temperature extracted from the exif-files
4.3 Use code-tags for your list

And the results?


The functions, created with your help, will be used to show more accurate temperatures in ML.

Why do I want to do this testing-stuff?

Easy to say:
I´m using raw-video for my astonomical shootings. And to are sure, saturn is and stay in focus, I regard the camera-monitor. But it don´t make me happy, what I see there:

0 minutes: Start recording: All is fine, temperature normal, 10°C
3 minutes: temp grows, expected behavior
5 minutes: next video, 40°C and temperature grows
6 minutes: 50°C, ML-temperature warning is coming
8 minutes: 60"C, ML-warning becomes red!
20 minutes: 70°C, I begin suffering from nerves
25 minutes: 75°C, I need a beer
30 minutes: 80°C, I need more alcohol to endure the pain regarding the camera-temperatur

I want my liver to stay healthy. So I don´t want to see this 80°C on the display. 60°C would be enough, especially because exiftool tells me, this 80°C are in reality only 60°C.  :)

With "ML temperature" you refer to the red framed item, right?

(http://www.image-load.net/users/public/images/jY5pXelioS.jpg) (http://www.image-load.net/)

If so:
7D ML v2.3.NEXT.2013Dec20.7D203
No list because there is no difference between EXIF data and ML display data between 21 and 58 degrees Celsius.

Ciao
Walter

PS: Tested with 650D but got very strange results. Have to verify the data. After reading the results I'm in doubt ML and Canon are using the same sensor at all.

Hi

Could you provide some higher temps, too? This would be fine to improve the accuracy of the resulting funktion.

Looks like for 7D x-128 is valid (as it is handled now), but the other cams need some other functions.

ThankYou for helping

Radiator? No, not necessary. Don´t stress your cam :) :) :)

But, if you one day take a longer video and see the temperatures growing very high, then write them down for the test with according cr2s, if this is possible. The more spreaded the values are, the more accurate will be the results.

No, I´m not sure at all, that the values come from the same sensor. Same sensors would be fine. But if I can definy a linear math function between the (maybe) two sensors, this would be enough, too. For my 600D, I have such a function, for the 7D,the function seems to be x - 128. For other cameras I need many measured wide spreaded values to work out such functions.

Using these functions, ML will show nearly the exif-temps. and these exif-temps are the temperatures, I want to know, because I can compare them with the temperatures from all my other pictures.

Just seen, your 650D has funny temperature values.

Walter, the first temperatures are the temps. shown by ML? That would mean, exif-temperatures are higher than ML-temperatures in your 650D?

There is only one dataset (6th: 43/42) where the Exif number is lower.

I made another test with my 650D. The data I get are pretty funny. I got datasets like 22 (ML) and 31 (exif).
I'm pretty convinced ML does not read the same sensor data as Canon is using for EXIF.
I had the cam outside again (about 8 deg. Celsius) for this test.

Wild guess: Makes sense if ML and Canon use different sensor output. Cam turned off for a while and all cam parts will have the same temperature. -> No (or small) difference between ML and Canon temperature at the beginning of meassurements. When running hot -> Difference will rise and then drop but you will see some gradation.
Don't have an environmental chamber to verify/falsify this one.

Maybe I got it all wrong but I have strong reservations those data will be of any use.

Is there someone around willing to tear down his/her 650D and use a IR cam and/or some coolant on PCB ...

Ciao
Walter (moderately confused)

Hi Walter

I´m just doing these test with heating the cam from outside and let acclimate it for some hours, before doing one single shot. Tomorrow I´m at work. There I will put the cam into a room, where big steam boilers are located. I think, I have 50° or 60°C there and a calibated thermometer. I´m  curious to see the results.

And for the 650D we will see. My wife has one, but she don´t want to have ML. (Man muß schauen, was man tun kann  8) )
Can you share your funny datasets? I,m pretty curious.

5D3, camera in fridge for 2-3 hours. EXIF says 8 degrees C, debug menu says 3. Will check again after some more hours.

A few hours later: EXIF says 4 degrees, debug menu says 0.

Post by: escho on December 31, 2013, 05:39:45 PM
Thanks, Alex.

I have to do some more measurements, which takes a lot of time to acclimate the camera to the ambient temperatures without internal heating. But the trend, I can see at the moment, doesn´t look very good. When I´ve got the values of the higher temeratures, I can say more...  :-\

Great, Renato

So we can be sure, that for 7D this function is true:

#define EFIC_CELSIUS ((int)efic_temp - 128)

For the red alarm. Do you mean the ML-alarm or the Canon-alarm. in MagicLantern the warnings are harcoded to 50 and 60°C:

static LVINFO_UPDATE_FUNC(temp_update)
{
    LVINFO_BUFFER(8);
   
    int t = EFIC_CELSIUS;
    snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%d"SYM_DEGREE"C", t);
    if (t >= 60)
    {
        item->color_bg = COLOR_RED;
    }
    else if (t >= 50)
    {
        item->color_bg = COLOR_ORANGE;
    }
}


I remember, someone in the forum told, that 7D switched herself off at a certain temperatur. Do you remember this temperature, maybe?

Hi Edgar,

This was the Canon high temp icon appearing on the LV screen.  I got it up to 68C and the camera was still recording video, never got to shutdown temp.  Probably 70 C.

Testing the temperatures of my 600D

Resulting plot

Description

1. External heating. Warming up the camerabody very slow during 5 hours.
1.1 The blue points show the ambient temperatures, measured with an external thermometer.
1.2 The red points show the corresponding camera-temperatures, extracted from the exifs.

2. Internal heating, capturing a mov-video, video-duration 45 minutes
2.1 The green points show the results

3. Function for converting ML-temp into real-temp
3.1 The violett graph show th converting-function, as it is used by ML at the moment


Analysis


4. External heating
4.1 The slope of the graphs in 1.1 and 1.2 are quite the same. It is "efic_temp - 128", like it is used now (little differece of 4°C in y-axis)

5. Internal heating
5.1 The resulting function differs to the default one very strong. On higher temperatures, there are differences of more than 20°C.

It seems to be sure, that there are different sensors used for exif-temperature and the temperatures , shown by ML (efic_temp). Heating the camera in normal use (capturing a video) results in wrong temperatures. The "efic-sensor" meter very high temps, the "exif-sensor" follow these temperatures much more slow. The more cold the camerabody is, starting the test, the more difference is between the default function and the resulting function.

Conclusion

1. The temperatures, shown by ML on the LV-screen are not useable.
2. The ML-warnings are hardcoded to 50°C btw. 60°C. Looking at the temperatures on the LV-screen and the ML-warnings, you think, something is wrong with your 600D. You think, your camera is much too hot.

Other cameras

1. 5D3 seems to react like the 600D. Highly wrong values, which cannot be corrected, because they depend on the starting temperature on your recording.
2. 7D fits to the default function. No problem with this camera
3. 650D looks a bit like 7D, but I´m not sure about this.

What do I think about this

1. Showing temperatures on LV-screen should be disabled on LV-screen
1.1 Seeing these high temperatures makes me nervous
1.2 I see no useful information in showing the temperatures on the LV-screen, too much info in this screen
1.3 If somebody wants to know temperatures, he can look in the debug-menue

2. The ML-warnings should be disabled
2.1 No useful info, for the best a double info, because Canon warns too.

3. Debug menue
3.1 A hint should be shown, that these temperatures may be wrong ("measured somewhere in the cam" is not enough)

What do you thing about this stuff?

Don't get me wrong but do you have data to back this opinion? Other than mine, of course ...
I've written before: I have strong reservations about my own datasets because of the very same problem you run into with 600D.

Personally I would ignore the external heating test.
Take the green data (internal heating) and draw the line to be used for ML temp display. 
Calibrate ML data to this line.

If the camera gets hot, it will show on the LV, if it is too hot, it will shut down.  I dont think there is any camera damage reported due to temperature.

That sounds reasonable.

I think, I´ll create a pull-request for the formulas of the 4 known cameras next week. The shown temperatures will be not correct, but more realistic than now.

I hope, some other guys do this test for other cameras, too.

Thanks for helping

On my harddisk, I changed ML-code to make my 600D working with the new temperature-function. Looks fine on my cam, much more realistic temperatures.

I think, for testing-purposes I need the efic_temp in the debug menue. Will do a pull-request for this later.

Second I saw in debug menue: Fahrenheit is shown as x.x. This precision cannot be provided by efic_temp. So, a integer temperature-value for Fahrenheit should be enough. This reduced precison makes the convertion from Celsius to Fahrenheit a bit simpler. I will do a pull request for this too.

Post by: escho on January 08, 2014, 09:18:22 PM
These are the convertion-functions, I will use, generated from the test-data, known up to now:

5D3: EFIC_CELSIUS = efic_temp * 63 / 100 -72
60D: EFIC_CELSIUS = efic_temp - 130
600D: EFIC_CELSIUS = efic_temp * 63 / 100 -72
650D: EFIC_CELSIUS = efic_temp - 125
1100D: EFIC_CELSIUS = efic_temp - 133
others: EFIC_CELSIUS = efic_temp - 128

Great analysis.

I'd say we can just consider two camera groups:
- 5D3/600D (efic_temp * 63 / 100 - 72)
- 60D/650D/1100D (efic_temp - 128).

The difference between the offsets is small and it's probably the sensor not being very accurate (that is, one 650D might efic_temp - 125 and another one maight fit efic_temp - 130).

For the other cameras, maybe we should display just the raw temperature (this might convince the users to post here).

For the implementation, I suggest to delete EFIC_CELSIUS from propvalues.h and move it to platform/*/consts.h. Then, in the menu (or wherever the temperature is used), we can say:

#ifdef EFIC_CELSIUS, print it
#else, print the raw value and maybe point the users to this thread in the help text.

That´s  what I wanted to do btw. what I did for my 600D on my own compile for testing.

Yes, I see these two groups too. 5D3 is similar to 600D. the others looks like what is suggested by exiftool (x-128).

Showing only raw-temperatures for the non tested cameras is a great idea. I will try to implement this.  But with the helptext I will need some help for myself, I guess. Give me some days to play with the code.

From now on, your test results are used to show accurate temperatures in ML.

But only cameras, tested by you, show celsius or fahrenheit. All other cameras only show raw temperature-values. And the temperature display in LV-screen is disabled for these untested cameras.

I just updated the introduction on the top of this thread: http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=9673.msg93005#msg93005

Post by: stevefal on January 12, 2014, 05:36:58 PM
I just noticed this thread based on the merge. Great stuff.

Continuing on the logic, I wonder if the feature can be perfected to answer the central question, "Is my camera about to shut down/be damaged?" Here's what I gather:

- people trust Canon to shut down before damage
- it's unclear how many/which sensors are being read
- absolute temperature measurements can't be trusted
- ML is likely reading the sensor that Canon uses to determine chip temperature, even if that's not what's used for EXIF.

It also looks like some people are willing to stick their cameras in the oven! Sooo..

If people were willing to heat up their cameras externally, and then run video enough to cause camera shutdown (while watching ML temp), we could create a virtual scale which is essentially "how close to shutdown/damage".

This scale could be spread between room temperature and shutdown temperature, per camera/class, based on EFIC_CELSIUS. So to be clear:

- capture efic_room as EFIC_CELSIUS when camera powers on at room temp (20 degrees celsius) ambient
- capture efic_shutdown as EFIC_CELSIUS when camera shuts down due to high temperature

Now the UI can be a simple "idiot light" that goes nothing -> yellow -> red:

- nothing < 0.80 * (efic_shutdown – efic_room)
- yellow > 0.80 * (efic_shutdown – efic_room)
- red > 0.95 * (efic_shutdown – efic_room)

The UI could just be "Temp" with either a yellow or red background. Since degrees are meaningless, don't show them.

For cameras that have not been shutdown-tested, we could guess efic_shutdown based on data in this thread.

@ stefeval
I for my part can say, I want to see the degrees. For me, the coloured warnings are not so important, because such warnings are given by canon firmware (double stuff). But nevertheless,  knowing the temperatures, at which the camera shut down, would be interesting. But I will never force my camera to do so  and do not expect others in doing so.

@ 1%
ThankYou for the values. In this temperature-range all cameras look quite similar (in some boundarys). A more spreaded temperature-range would be needed to be sure, to which of the two classes the 6D belongs. So it´s the best to wait for some other data for the 6D.

@ mk11174
Thanks for measuring. I will work out the function this weekend.

I´m just doing these test with heating the cam from outside and let acclimate it for some hours,

I wonder how valid such temperatures from an acclimated camera will be. Electronics and especially CPU can heat up quite rapidly, even during boot-up. I think the newer, higher end cams have a more substantial heat-sink, which would help. Maybe?

My speculation is that my 600d doesn't have a substantial heat-sink.

Is there is a way to embed debug statements in the boot-code to write soon-after-cam-turned-on temp values to a log than could be accessed externally, after the fact?

Perhaps an intervalometer function that recorded the internal temp, while the cam was taking pictures of a thermometer so as to facilitate sync of camera and ambient?

Hi all

Yes, testing this stuff with an infrared thermometer would be fine. For doing this, I would try like this:

Recording a video-file for to heat the camera
Testing the cam at some different temperatures (low, medium, high for example)
Measuring at each temperature some parts inside the camera. Sensor bottom side, sensor top side, other parts
shooting a pic at each temperature and extract the temperature, shown in the exif of the pic.
Writing down the according temperatures here in this thread: exif-temp, Celsius by ML, raw by ML, IR-temperatures.
Beeing very quick in testing this.

I think, someone started measuring with an thermometer some time ago, but nobody followed him. It would be interesting to see, wheter the measured temperatures match to temperatures, showed by ML or extracted from exif. But I think, this test isn´t very simple to do accurate, because, if the lens is removed, the temperature inside the camera will change very quickly.

[EOS 6D, using raw-after as RAW]

The best, simple fitted curve has a cubic function;
temp_C = -4152 + (72,2 * RAW ) - (0,4193 * RAW2) + (0,000815 * RAW3)
That one had R-Sq(adj) 97,7%

The best linear function:
temp_C = -69,12 + (0,6558*RAW)
R-Sq(adj) 95,3%

The quadratic function:
temp_C = -351,9 + (4,045 * RAW) - (0,01011 RAW2)
has an R-Sq(adj) of 96,8%

Omitting the raw-after of 26 Celsius, the linear function seems ok.
One would need more data points in the lower and upper temp segments to be sure, though.
With more points, a better fit... a simpler equation?

Hmm I'm afraid my test results on the 500D are not reliable, and will never be. First there is a really weird bug where the camera crashes randomly when recording in video mode, so the test was not possible to do. What I did was 25 x 1min clip and a picture between two videos, although I still had a lot of crashes

Then, the temperature doesn't seem to update properly (500D not fast enough?) and I had to reboot the camera, change mode, open a few times the ML menu... And still, the results are everything but what they should be :



166 51
166 54
167 54
167 55
167 54
167 55
168 55
168 55
168 57
168 58
169 58
169 59
169 60

172 60
172 60

172 62
173 63
173 64
175 64
173 64
175 64
175 64
173 64


So I thought about other ways of heating up the camera, I guess I'll try 1min photos. Maybe we can interpret those numbers ? Like to me it would seems 175 = 64°.

I'll make others tests soon.

Hi Hey

You don´t need to record a video clip, if that is not possible due to camera hickup. It is sufficient to switch on live view for heating the sensor. So, if you have some time, please try this:

1. Switch your cam off an let it cool down. The cam should have time enough to cool down.  A night on a balcony is no bad idea, I think.
2. If you wake up early next day, switch the cam on and immediately take a photo. That´s our first pair of values (exif-temp from the pic and raw temp from ML)
3. Turn on LV and take a pic every 1 or 2 minutes. The exif-temps from these pics and the raw values, you notice are the next values we need. The raw values should be read out immediately before or after a shoot

A wide spreaded temperature range is more important than many pictures at similar temperatures.

Gotcha, I'm going to try to do timelapse tonight and then do it tomorrow, although I think that the value not updating is really an issue, most of the time if I reboot the camera it will be 2 or 3 different.

Not sure how much this will.  These readings were taken on a Canon T1I/500D camera.  The ML raw values stopped at 158 while the exif temperatures continually increased until I got the red flashing thermometer on the display. So, I stopped so I wouldn't damage my camera.  The right side of the camera was hot to the touch as was the SDHC memory card.  I am using the Nightly.2015Jan29.500D111 build.

Great! Although the datas are not really reliable, the R² should be as close as possible to 1:

(http://i.gyazo.com/f8829b7153fcc9cfc5f469883e529d32.png)

As the temperature go up quickly maybe try to take a picture every minute. Also we only need the exif data, so you could lower the resolution to take more pictures. A thing I noted is that it seems that the function is not the same for cold temps, maybe it's the same for hot ones. Or maybe it's a polynomial funtion ?
Title: Re: Wanted: temperatures from your cams
Post by: Hey on February 10, 2015, 01:31:24 AM
Ok here are the graphs from my previous data (previous page), if anyone can explain... So either the function is not the same, or it's something else than a linear one. Maybe it's the same thing for other cameras ?

500D startup log :

PROP_EFIC_TEMP 39Ž



Values of a few log files :

26°C -> 154 RAW // 154 - 26 = 128
27°C -> 155 RAW // 155 - 27 = 128
30°C -> 158 RAW // 158 - 30 = 128
39°C -> 167 RAW // 167 - 39 = 128

--------------------------------------------

Canon function raw to °C :

int FF064EE4(int a1)

  int result;

  result = a1 - 128;
  MEM(0x2C20) = result;
  return result;

550D :

The simplest way :
- find LDR R2, =0x80030014,
- in this function find BEQ 0xFF0657C8,

0xFF0657C8
LDR    R1, =0x2A48
SUB    R0, R0, #0x80  // -128
STR    R0, [R1,#0x34]


So 550D also (raw - 128) = °C

I'm posting this in response to your comment on my bug report, Temp goes from 41°C to -60°C (https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/issues/2596/temp-goes-from-41-c-to-60-c)

I got lost the first time I ran the test so I set up a stopwatch and shot a picture every minute while recording video. Another issue encountered was that the display would alternate between two screen layouts every time the shutter was released. On the layout with no information on the bottom of the screen I couldn't bring up the ML menu. That made it impossible for me to read the debug menu and give you the raw numbers.

These are the two screen layouts:

Maybe I should have made a longer test but it didn't seem like the temperature was going up very rapidly after a while. Note that I have never had my EOSM stop because of overheating. If the exif data is accurate it only got up to 46°C after running continuously for 25 minutes.

The readout jumping to -60°C, that's a bit of a problem.

Another issue encountered was that the display would alternate between two screen layouts every time the shutter was released. On the layout with no information on the bottom of the screen I couldn't bring up the ML menu.

The alternate display appears when you press the shutter halfway, and should disappear as soon as you release it.

Probably ML thinks the half-shutter remains stuck for some reason. To diagnose it, you could print HALFSHUTTER_PRESSED in a loop and see if this is the case.

I can try to reproduce it on a 700D, as it uses the same method. 5D3 works fine, just tested. I only have to take pictures while recording a H.264 video, with global draw on, right?

The video is fine, it is just the layout.

In any case this is moving off topic. Hope the temperature test sheds some light on the issue of going from 41°C to -60°C on the EOSM.
Title: Re: Wanted: temperatures from your cams
Post by: escho on September 03, 2016, 09:35:39 PM
It looks like the efic_temp, we can adress, has values between 0 and 255. Values higher than 255 begin with 0 again.
This is no problem for the cams, because they will shutdown by Canon firmware, before they reach these high raw-values. EOS-M seems to play another role. The raw values are much higher from the beginning. So 255 can be reached easily. Result is, The next value will be 0.

The converting-function from efic to celsius can be found in platform/camera/consts.h. For the EOS-M it looks like this:

// temperature convertion from raw-temperature to celsius
// http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=9673.0
#define EFIC_CELSIUS ((int)efic_temp * 40 / 100 - 60)


A workaround for this problem could be, to change the function in the EOS-M const.h:

If 0 <= efic_temp <=50 than
    efic_temp = efic_temp + 256
endif

#define EFIC_CELSIUS ((int)efic_temp * 40 / 100 - 60)


Since I am no coder (what I´m doing is try and error), I don´t know the syntax for this function. So, if this workaround is wanted and possible, some of you have to code it :)

Another way for this temperature-stuff would be, to find the PROP, canon uses to write the temperature-data to the exif-tags. If this PROP is updated periodicaly and if we can read it out, we would have a nice x - 128 for all cameras.

Title: Re: Wanted: temperatures from your cams

What about this?


#define EFIC_CELSIUS (MOD(efic_temp - 150, 256) * 40 / 100)

Hi Alex
I don´t understand very well, what your function does. What is MOD? And where is "-60" ?
Edgar
Title: Re: Wanted: temperatures from your cams
Post by: a1ex on September 04, 2016, 09:55:14 PM
MOD is the modulo operation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo_operation): MOD(a,b) is from 0 to b-1 (a and b both int32_t, b > 1). C has the % operator, but that one gives negative numbers as well, which doesn't match what I've learned in the math class about modulo (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_arithmetic ). That's why I've defined the MOD macro in imath.h.

And 150 * 40 / 100 = 60.

However, that definition wraps around at 102 degrees to 0, so it will fail at negative temperatures. A better version that works from -20 to 80 degrees is:


#define EFIC_CELSIUS (MOD(efic_temp - 100, 256) * 40 / 100 - 20)


Before/after (efic_temp from 0 to 255):

42 42 43 43 44 ... 101 101 102 0 0 0 1 1 2      ... 40 40 41 41 42
42 42 43 43 44 ... 81 81 82 -20 -20 -20 -19 -19 ... 40 40 41 41 42


I'm not sure at which point this number really wraps around, but at least this definition should cover the usual temperature range. If anyone wants to place his EOS M in a freezer or oven for measurements, that data would be welcome, but please be very careful with condensation and/or heat (you can damage the camera). Or, it may be safer to just find the conversion function in Canon code.

Title: Re: Wanted: temperatures from your cams
Post by: escho on September 08, 2016, 10:59:28 PM
I would like to use this one:
#define EFIC_CELSIUS (MOD(efic_temp - 95, 256) * 40 / 100 - 22)

This would cover a temperature-range between -22°C and  +80"C

Temperatures under -20"C can be possible ( in Sibirien :) ) but when you turn your cam on, the temperature will rise.
And I guess, Canon will shutdown the cam reaching about 80°C
So this temperature range from -22°C - +80°C should be satisfactory.

Find some time to make the graph and formula for 70D: https://seescho.wordpress.com/2016/04/24/temperaturanzeige-mit-magiclantern/
The 70D fits fine to convertion-group 5. So I guess, we will take: 0,6x - 65

I´m working on 100D

And the 100D made its way through LibreOffice Calc, too. Formula and graph is on my website. Same link as one post before: https://seescho.wordpress.com/2016/04/24/temperaturanzeige-mit-magiclantern/

The 100D ist a cam for group 1: x - 128

Thanks for the measurment. I will have a closer look into it next week.

Looking at the previous results for 70D I think it's wrong to include several plots with the same values. This will bias the results. If you exclude the duplicates in DeafEyeJedi's test the result from my measurements and DeafEyeJedi's are not that far apart.

Leegong and Greg identified yet another temperature sensor - PROP_BOARD_TEMP (https://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=17596.msg201827#msg201827). This one appears to be given in degrees Celsius on all models, with an offset of 128.

5D3: it's updated more often than EFIC_TEMP and has higher variations, but values stay roughly close to the old one. Tested range: from about 25 to about 40 degrees (the latter being in LiveView). When the indicator was showing 31 EFIC and 27-28 BOARD, I took a picture and EXIF info showed 27 degrees.

60D: not reported at startup in photo mode; it appears after a while (possibly seconds, possibly minutes); what triggers it is unknown (it's not half-shutter, it's not photo capture); in LiveView it's reported more often. When the indicator was showing 28-30 EFIC and -128 (0 raw), I took some pictures; afterwards, the indicator showed either -128 or 24/25 BOARD, and all pictures have 24/25 degrees in EXIF.

70D: not reported at startup, likely similar to 60D. Only tested in QEMU.

Might be useful to cross-check the measurements. I hoped it could replace the old method (if all models use X-128, it would be an advantage over model-specific scaling/offset), but given that it's not always reported at startup and photo capture doesn't trigger it, it's probably not a good idea to "fix" the current (working) code.

Mystery: the BOARD temperature appears closer to the value ending up in EXIF, at least in the first tests, but since it's not reported during photo capture (on 60D I've had two instances where the indicator showed -128 before and after taking a picture), that gives me some doubts.

Questions you may try to answer:
- are these values any closer to EXIF temperature, than what we currently use (PROP_EFIC_TEMP) ?
- any way to force an update for this property? (at startup, it sometimes reports 0, sometimes even after taking a picture)

Reading this:

https://www.eoshd.com/news/canon-eos-r5-has-serious-overheating-issues-in-both-4k-and-8k/

I realize what a treasure ML is.  I never had any overheating issues with any of the cameras that I used with ML.  It is hard to believe that Canon engineers put so much amazing new technology in the R5 but totally ignored the overheating issue making the camera useless for longer shots.

Has anyone of you experienced any overheating issues when using your camera with ML?  Please share your experience.

Mystery: the BOARD temperature appears closer to the value ending up in EXIF, at least in the first tests, but since it's not reported during photo capture (on 60D I've had two instances where the indicator showed -128 before and after taking a picture), that gives me some doubts.

On my EOS M3 I have 3 temperature values with CHDK. They are named Optical, Sensor and Battery. But also without any lens I got an optical temperature. Maybe the optical is the board temperature. The Sensor temperature is always much higher than the optical temperature so I expect that is really the sensor. I had max sensor temperature from around 70 degree.
The EXIF temperature matches exactly with the optical temperature. I'm wondering, why Cannon reports this lower value and not the sensor temperature in the EXIF data.

Despite the fact that Mr. Walter Schulz is trying to play the forum policeman here, I would like to share an important test result that, in my opinion, will be of practical interest to those who film with the EOS-M. 

I have just tested the camera in its 5k anamorphic mode (1736x2928) at 10 bit lossless, 16.688 fps with 192 MHz card overclocking which is quite demanding in terms of camera resources and let the camera record with these settings until my 64 GB 95 MB/s Sandisk card got full and recording stopped at the "Card full" message.  The ambient temperature was 28 deg. C and I was testing with the latest July 10-th experimental build.  In the first 5 minutes after recording started the temperature gradually increased to 48 deg. C and raised to 50 deg. C at the time card got full.  I got a total of 16 minutes recording time on that card.  My conclusion is that the camera can safely be operated continuously for longer takes with larger capacity cards without overheating issues.

Keeping in mind that the title of this thread is: "Wanted: temperatures from your cams", I don't see why this or similar reports should be off topic, why a new topic should be opened for that and how am I trying to "capture this thread with off-topic requests" but if moderators feel that way, please feel free to delete my post.

In eosm, after 25 minutes of recording in 1736x976 I had 56 degrees. Ambient Temperature 32 degrees.
I finished recording myself.

Post by: Levas on July 11, 2020, 01:47:00 PM
I bet the temperature problem with the EOS R5 is because it has in-body image stabilisation.
Because the sensor has to be able to move a little along different axis, it can't be placed to something it can loose the heat to.
So it probably has to loose all heat through air, no use of heatsink or other metal body parts it can loose heat to.

Being the development section of the board, I've always been of the preference of this section being strictly segregated to development discussion.
Ideally, I think the initial revival post is not suited to this thread. It's a general (non-developmental) discussion post tethered to this thread by the word temperature.

There has been a clear push by the userbase asking to be careful with stifling discussion, and given the current climate of ML, especially the development of the project, this needs to be respected. Discussion needs to take precedence over procedure.

IMO, the forum police comment is valid. There is a process in place to report concerns to mods.

Very interesting finds on the R5 by Andrew Reid. Could mean that the overheating is added in software as a fake limitation. I wonder if there could be Magic Lantern developed to remove these limitations.
