General Help Q&A / Re: 5D3 Timelapse - Ballpark timeframe?
September 19, 2013, 03:53:10 PM
Hi
- tried the emailed file (thanks)
- deleted the config auto save and deleted existing
- followed the tutorials.
(no luck)

Can I please check the simple assumption: Is there a Shoot menu on ML for 5D Mark III?

I ask as I see there isn't a Shoot menu in the screen shot on the following link (halfway down): http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=2602.0

Thanks

Thanks for your time. I've had to run to catch a flight. Back in a day, will post then to let you know either way. Cheers and good night.

Hi.  Done, line by line.
Confirm files were copied across.  After firmware update have the same (reduced) menu items which dont have the shoot menu.
Thanks

Honestly dont know.  Downloaded the Alpha kit, extracted it and transferred to SD card.  Then loaded ML via the firmware upgrade. 

So I guess the answer is: went with default file/s. Didnt do anything special with developer kit.

Thanks

And perhaps there is the issue... no Shoot Menu.

FYI I download the 5DIII ML Alfa file from this link: http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=2602.0
(Navigation to the link: 1. ML Homepage.  2. Downloads  3. Browse Alpha Builds.  4.  The relevant Sticky Topic for ML 5D III (link provided above).

So likely I am using the wrong or incomplete Alfa build.  Any chance of a link to the complete zip file?

Thanks,

Hi - thanks for taking an interest (and for your time)

Installed zip file: magiclantern-5D3.113.Alpha3.  At the Overlay menu (I assume is the shoot menu) I see:
- global draw
- zebras
- focus peak
- magic zoom
- cropmarks
- ghost image
- spotmeter
- histogram
- waveform
- vectorscope
- audio meters
END

Separately primary menus I have are: Overlay, Movie, display, prefs, debug and help

Thanks

Hi - sorry I continue to be a squeaky wheel.

No luck.

Situation:  I  have ML installed.  Started with 5D3.113.Alpha3 and works perfectly. I have since downloaded and copied across  three different nightly builds (replacing existing files with downloaded files on  the SD card).  For each nightly build I can not find the intervalometer. 

When I check ML version in help menu i see: 
Version V2.3 NEXT 2012Nov08 3D3113.
MErcurial changeset: 8694675c9438 (unidentified) tip
Built on2012-11-08 15:11:43 by alex@thinkpad

I see the version date is NOV 12.  Maybe the issue is how I install the ML nightly build???

Thanks,

Hi, thanks.

Well I have installed the latest overnight build.  No Intervalometer (well not that I can see anyway).

Am I missing something?  Perhaps I'm right assuming the function isn't available yet for the 5D Mark III.

Thanks.

General Help Q&A / 5D3 Timelapse - Ballpark timeframe?

Hi Team  - sorry if I am posting in the wrong area.

I'm a very big fan of the Timelapse feature.  Became reliant on it with my 60D.  Have since upgraded cameras to the 5D III. 

Using the ML Alfa release for 5DIII and very happy with it (thanks).  I note the release notes imply that the Timelapse feature will come in the future.  Wondering, is there a ballpark timeframe you are thinking about?  In short, should I go buy a suitable shutter release or shall I just chill for another month or two.

Thanks and regards.
