General Help Q&A / Re: EOS M Shutter problem
June 22, 2023, 07:20:56 AM
Thanks Walter, I think I'm safe therefore to go up to 256, which will do me :-)

BTW the card I have successfully tried was a SanDisk 64GB Extreme PRO SDXC card, 200MB/s, UHS-I, Class 10, U3, V30, at £15.

Cheers

@c_]oerg

That's good to know, ie about the micro sd option.

BTW I purchased a faster card, but restricted myself to 64gb, ie to see if it fixed the shutter bug, and it did.

Does anyone have any guidance on card size, eg  would going to 128 vs 256 be ok? Or is there evidence of a max size of card?

Walter, BTW, that's a micro sd card. I've never used one of those in an adapter. I assume all is ok, ie compared to a normal sd?

Walter (or anyone) from your experience, can you recommend a reasonably priced SD card that reduces/eliminates the shutter bug on the M?

I'm not looking for super large card and not one for video ;-)

Cheers

Walter I reloaded everything and it's OK now: strange.

Thanks for help.

I hope you can help again as the latest Lua fix, which is later than the one I was using, seems to not have a menu to allow me to switch scripts on and off their auto running mode.

Or, once again, am I missing something?

PS Also why has the SET trigger been remaoved from ETTR? You need SET to be able to have auto bracketing and ETTR active :-(

Walter how stupid am I.

I had completely forgotten that issue.

Thanks for reminding me!

General Help Q&A / EOS M Shutter problem
June 18, 2023, 06:09:56 PM
As some may know I'm not new to ML, it's just that I've mainly been using my CHDK cams recently.

Anyway, I decided to revisit my EOSM DOFIS script and noticed some strangeness.

Without ML on a card all is OK, ie the shutter works as expected.

Put ML (latest Lua fix build) on and with all modules off, ie bare ML, the shutter will not fire.

I've (think) I've tried everything to see if I have a 'rogue' setting somewhere, but the problem remains.

Does anyone have any idea what's going on, ie what stupid thing I'm doing?

Cheers

General Help Q&A / Farewell 5D3
November 06, 2021, 10:42:32 AM
After much personal debate, I've made the decision to trade in my 5D3 and jump into the EOS R world, initially with a secondhand R.

This was not an easy decision, as I loved my 5D3, and I had great fun writing Lua scripts for it, culminating in DOFIS, for focus, and MUSIC, for use case bracketing.

I'm keeping my EOSMs, so I'll continue to tweak DOFIS and MUSIC on my visible, full spectrum and IR Ms.

BTW if anyone wishes to PM me (U.K. based), I have a 5D3 cage in great condition, an unused Canon battery grip and an L bracket for the grip, that I will sell at a sensible price to a good home.

A sad day in one way, but I'm hopeful we may see ML on the R one day.

Forgot to say, ML flashes a message after each shot saying please put camera in LV.  As I say I wouldn't expect this if camera is in LV, as required by focus stacking.

Really.

Shock, horror  ;)

If I use a script, I'm sure I can get it to stay in LV.

Oh well.

General Help Q&A / Macro Focus Stacking
August 18, 2021, 06:28:15 PM
I feel embarrassed to ask for help on this topic, but I simply can't get ML menu driven focus stacking to work as I think it should.

I'm in LV on 5D3 with a 100mm Canon macro lens. Latest Lua fix version.

Stacking appears to work, but the camera goes out and back into LV after every shot. Which I don't think it should.

I have no scripts running.

Can some kind person put me out of my misery.

Cheers

As I mention ML and the M, I thought I would flag up my latest M3 post: https://photography.grayheron.net/2021/07/m3-bracketing-exposure-survey-mode.html

Not strictly ML, but related.

Here is the latest post on the CHDK version of my combined DOFIS+MUSIC script.

Thanks Walter, I couldn't have said it better myself  ;) :) :D

Once again, a background link to my CHDK script that runs on the M3, because both the ML and CHDK deep focus bracketing scripts use the thick lens DOFIS model, which also accounts for pupil magnification:

I have tried to keep ML DOFIS and CHDK M3 Bracketing scripts aligned, at least functionally.
#22
I thought some may be interested in my latest post on the Canon M3 deep focus bracketing Lua script.

As you will see, I've taken a UI steer from ML  ;)

https://photography.grayheron.net/2021/04/m3-brackets-change-to-ui.html

BTW I really miss ML Lua, ie I have to muck about with 32bit integer math limitations over in CHDK land  >:(

QuoteHow did u made it work?

EF-M lens vs EF lens with an adapter.

Maybe  ;)
#24
Just added a useful addendum to the post, that allows you to estimate your over and under DoF, if you ignore the pupil mag.
