The last couple days, when I try to magnify the Live View image for focusing on a bright star or Jupiter the display shows noise & hot pixels but no image. Last Fri, I shoot 602 images of Sagittarius, the magnifier worked and helped with focus but the last couple days it has malfunctioned.
Last Fri., I set ML to take 150 frames and then stop so I could realign the camera & check focus. Then I shot another 150, etc. and ML and the magnifier worked perfectly. I also appreciate that ML confirmed the eBay sellers claim of the number of shutter actuations, a handy feature.
This 10 YO camera is new to me. I may have inadvertently set something in the Menu or in Magic Lantern. I'm using a Canon 50mm f/1.8 lens, typically at f/2.2.
I do not know if the problem is in a ML setting but I'm asking here in case it is.
Help appreciated.
One more problem -- the verification question for the source code would not accept my entries, including the whole code and various abbreviations. I see that question again here.
At least I can answer the Twitter question. You should fix the source code question.
