General Help Q&A / How can I deactivate/stop Trap Focus (continuous) on a 600d?
« on: June 19, 2014, 10:01:49 AM »
Hi,
I just started playing around with the trap focus (continuous) on my 600d. I´m using magiclantern-Nightly.2014Jun10.600D102
For me, the shortcut to activate Trap Focus (AF key) doesn´t work in LV. (while, as i´ve understood, Trap Focus only works in LV).
But my main issue is that once i start continuous trap focus i can´t stop it anymore. or at least it´s a bit tricky.
I have to press SB halfway and press thrash to get into the ML menue. but i have to time this so that I don´t press the trash button while the camera shows the picture the has just been taken. mostly the time frame to get into the ML menue between review and shooting a new picture is very short.
Is there anything i´m overlooking or doing wrong?
What i´m looking for is a shortcut to toggle between Trap Focus off and continuous. That would be awesome :-)
Thanks!
Best,
Karsten
