Hi!
There is a feature I'm dreaming about for ages, maybe it's not that hard to implement in ML. It goes about the Auto Exposure calculation of all important modes: P, A, T, M+Auto ISO. The problem with the standard calculation is that it is based on the rule of thumb that the image won't be blurred in a hand held camera if the exposure time is less than 1/focal length of the lens. But it's not always true, because of two main reason:
1) your hand can be more shaky or more calm than the normal,
2) your lens has Image Stabilization! In this case the exposure time can be 3-4 stops longer than the 1/focal length. But the automatic calculation does not take that into consideration, that's too bad. You can exploit the IS fully if you use Manual mode with fix ISO setting like 50 years ago!...
The requested feature would change the calculation: the user should be able to allow longer or expect shorter exposure time as the default. This could be called "shutter speed compensation".
Maybe there is a better explanation of the topic here: http://forums.usa.canon.com/t5/EOS/5D3-Firmware-Hiccups-2-No-IS-Image-Stabilizer-support/td-p/13759.
Is it theoretically possible to change the default AE calculation by ML? The ideal solution would be that the lens IS is detected automatically and SSC ist set to 3 or 4. As far as I know the body does not know if the lens has IS, is it true? Then a manual setting would also be amazing.
