Hi Nik,

Thanks for the test release! Did you only change the firmware number check in ML or did you have to make other adjustments because the new firmware works different in some places?

I ask because i want to know if i can safely use it on my camera. Out of excitement i installed the new canon firmware hoping it would give some new functions. Unfortunately it does nothing in that respect.

Does the firmware file/update from canon mean that ML development will be easier? Or does it make no difference?

Best regards,
Martijn

Good to see that there is progress being made 

Approximately how long do you (who are working on it) think we have to wait for the final release/version?

I saw the heading changed to already done. I found out dot tune is the answer.

Dot tune uses the focus confirmation dot. As i saw on youtube a lot of MA values get a focus confirmation (+10) and the middle point is assumed to be optimal.

How reliable is this? REIKAN uses the real sharpness per MA setting and not just a binary value of focus or not in focus which seems more reliable. If measured sharpness in a photo is better is there a way that ML can evaluate this sharpness instead of the confimation dot? So we can have both evaluation options in ML?

It would be very cool if ML is able to do micro adjust itself for cameras that have MA.

A user can then place the camera on a stable surface and point it towards a random subject. ML then takes a picture at every MA setting and evaluates the sharpness of the focus points. Just like REIKAN FOCAL. Users can then calibrate focus in the field for the type of photography they need.
