Hi. As for the 6D/1.1.6 problems.
I'm using the current nightly (magiclantern-Nightly.2016Jan14.6D116.zip) and I can say that DotTune AFMA sometimes works, sometimes not
For my first trial (with 50 f/1.4) I got the whole range. After different try (different focusing card among other things) I got no AF... After several trials I think I get best results with:
- manual ISO (100)
- M mode
- lowest f value of course
- exposure slightly to the right (for better contrast, +1 or so)
- IS turned off
- AF-ON key changed to default value
- new focusing card taken from original youtube video (http://www.testcams.com/DotTune/CrossHatch_Target.png)
- distance from the card = 50 x focal length (more less)
I don't know which of these are important, though. Even after doing everything, for some lenses/focal length I had to do it manually, as in original youtube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zE50jCUPhM). One tip: you don't have to enter Canon menu, setting it in DotTune AFMA module works the same (just remember to pick if it's prime/wide/tele). So it's fast anyway.
