Hi,

Bahtinov does not work good with a narrowband filter, but with display gain +3 in liveview.

@Walter Schulz

Sorry no tut available für this mod. But i used a display from a 600d, which is the the same. 600d uses a lvds transceiver on the mainboard and receiver on the display pcb. 6d is not using this. the only way was to solder many small cables from the 6d display pcb to the 600d pcd and desolder all components from the 600d display pcb.

Hi,

this is a nice result.

i just installed the 4k crop Magic Lantern and the adtg_gui. it is up and running. i took a look into the registers, but there are so many. how to find the right one for streching and smooting? i saw that there is a log option, but also in this log file there are too much registers to find the right ones. any hints for finding these or have i to try to find the right ones?

Thx, Markus

Hi,

my cooled 6d have a halpha mod. This is a self build cooled camera. to mount the peltiers directly on the sensor i mounted a display from a 600d on the right side. the cabling was hard, but as you can see it works just fine. the system cooles down the sensor about a delta of 25° celsius and you can select the target temperature for defined darks.

30x zoom will be helpfull for focusing on dimm stars. the new canon Ra have this function.

Hi,

i would ask if it´s possible to add a function for 30x magnifier as it is also implemented at the new canon ra? this will be a great help to focus correctly to the stars at astrophotography. i´m currently using the 6d with magic lantern. the display gain is a great help to focus on darker stars.

Hi,

an hour ago i had the same idea About the WiFi Card (before i read your post). in Germany we say "zwei dumme, ein gedanke" - "two stupid, one thought"

i will try a toshiba WiFi sd Card. hope this will work.

the silent files do not appear after restart the camera.

thx again!

Hi a1lex,

thx for the quick Reply. i have edited the silent.mo with Notepad++. now the Images are saved as jpg, but the Canon tool still not recognize it. i also test with Extension cr2, still no luck. i think it is the filename also. "IMG_9133.CR2". Maybe i have to add "IMG" to the Image file, but i don´t know how to do this. any help will be welcome. and also only 4 Digits in filename.

"save_mlv MLV CR2 %s/%%08d.%s %s/%04d%%04d.%s %s"

regards, markus

Hi,

i´d like to use the silent Picture for Electronically Assisted Astronomy. for this it is necessary to Transfer the Pictures live to the PC for live-stacking. if i connect the camera through an usb cable i can´t see the dng/mlv files stored on the Card, only raw or jpg. only if i put the Card direct into the pc´s Reader i see them stored in the dcim Folder.
is there a way to Access These Pictures live from a PC?

thanks, markus

Hi, the Display test does not work on this camera. But i ´m shure that the card with the displaytest autoexec work, cause i have one more 600d that start the test immediately if i close the cards door.
i think the rom dumper will also not work on this camera, but i try it this evening.

any more ideas?

thanks, markus

i agree. but thanks for your help.

markus

Yes, startup withount any extension. also without a lens.

Hi,

yes firmware 1.0.2 is installed. yes, magic lantern was installed on this camera. yes, all removed and starup again, but still error 70.

Hi,

i have the camera now. so it will go on here.
i testet the card with the display test autoexec.bin on my camera, but nothing happend. so i reformat the card, install ml on the card and setup on my running 600d. now the card is bootable with the display test autoexec.bin. if i now put it in my camera the display test start with closing the card door and display the test picture.

but on the error 70 600d nothing happens. any suggestions how i can go on?

thanks, markus

Hi,

i am a friend of fey, so some more additional informations from me. the camera get into the error 70 after a long astrophotography session on a high air humidity night. the problem my be occoured by the high humid, but we donßt know exactly.

we found this unbrick guide:
http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Unbricking

and we start to figure out the first solutions, but none work to get back to the canon menu:

-  try to boot without a card >> error 70
-  try to boot with a freshly formated card >> error 70
-  try to boot in any mode with the dial switch >> error 70

now we wan to try the next steps from the unbricking guide. but for this we need some help. it seems that this error happen some time on the 60D see here:
http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=4105.0

a1ex seem to have a procedure to unbrick these cameras. if i understand right then there is a value stored that is not valid, so we have to change this value back or reset all settings by the canon menu and bypassing the assert handler.
