I wish he would put the font.dat file in the \data directory!  While I'm here.  I've created a single download of all the basic tools I use with the EOS-M, including one of the later builds.  (1% is there one you recommend as the most stable--I'll replace with that).  You can find it here.  You can also find the fonts.dat file in the build included.

Thank you very much!! Everything works like a charm now.

I've downloaded the latest version from http://ml.bot-fly.com/fir_files/ but get an error message during installation of ML - it misses some files (fonts in particular).

Should I compliment some 'basic' package with the content of the downloaded archive?

Looks like you're in another folder...

Open the folder in explorer. Check if all your files are here. shift+rightclick and choose "open command prompt here" (it does not work on every windows version) and check again. Or run cmd.exe and cd <yourfolderpath> before running the command.

It kind of helped!

How I get this:


If I replace x64 dcraw with one from archive - I get an error message ('couldn't start correctly' etc.)

Put the .cr2 dual iso file in the same folder with cr2hdr.exe, dcraw.exe, exiftool.exe. Run cmd.exe there and execute "cr2hdr <yourfilename>". See if any errors appear.

Got this

Hi to everyone, i download the new Windows:cr2hdr.exe and it doesn't seem to be working on my windows i get a dcraw.exe - System error that says <<cant start cygwin1.dll is missing>> how do i fix it or do i stay with the previous one that worked? Are there any major changes in those two?

Thanks!!

I was fighting with the same issue.
Re-installed Cigwin, but started to receive a message  'the application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)'
Replaced dcraw with x64 version

It is strange. I was getting " 'the application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)' " until 32 bit dcraw was replaced with x64 one.

And for some mysterious reason I don't see resulting DNG in the source folder. It was the first place where I expected it to appear.
Seems that *******.dng file was not created at all - I was searching it through the file search on my PCwith no avail.

Sorry for stupid question.

I've dragged CR2 created with Ml and dual ISO, the window got appeared and seemingly the conversion happened, but I can't find a resulting DNG
Where it should be?

PS. 've wasted a plenty of time trying to use 32 bit dcraw in 64 bit environment. Probably it is necessary to mention that users with 64x Windows need proper dcraw

@1drey:
what exactly do you want to do? simple remote triggering? you can trigger eos m via ir remote. there is afaik no way to remote control via pc, tablet, smartphone, etc. and there is also no way to trigger via cable... not without serious modification of the camera.
ml has some features like motion detection and trap focus. i don't know if they are available on eos m so far and i doubt that they fit your needs, because they are very special.

Unfortunately ir remote is not very reliable unless you keep a transmitter very close to the sensor
I plan to use EOS M as a travel/backup camera for shooting spherical panoramas - sometimes the photographer can significantly influence the light making the subsequent stitching of panoramas problematic, or camera can be mounted on the top of the high pole... I use radio trigger with my main camera 5DMkII and find it necessary feature...

Hello everyone, my first post here  - I just ordered an EOS M
Sorry if my question will sound stupid.

Is there any option to trigger EOS M without getting into guts and soldering wires? Can it be done with the aid of software modification (through ML)? 

Thank you!
