Hey Kaktus.
Yeah, I think a 96MB/s card would be "wasted" on the 6d if you're recording stuff onto it.
However! downloading the data to your computer through a usb3 card reader would definitely benefit from a higher-speed memory card.

I personally hate being stuck on USB2 land and downloading photos at 20MB/s. One day i'll get my usb3 laptop, one day.

Thanks ML
My weekend fun has been great.

Auto ETTR is great when on sand dunes, or snow as you get all the deets w/o blownouts and can later fix.
Sadly, it sometimes fails to work and this time it took me a while to make it work again after some fumbling.

Intervalometer is better than the built in time, and the take several pictures at a time feature is great for group photos and getting everyone with their eyes open.

Yay! Thanks ML.

Okiedoke.

Haha. Back to the raw converter win/lose.
I'm happy with defish to never work. I never use it anyway. I was demoing ML to a friend. I even had my fisheye for the spesh occasion.

When raw converter died, I don't think anything else died.
But I love my raw converter.

I've also had DualISO fail to activate sometimes.
It's intermittent when the camera wakes up from sleep and dualiso was set before it went to sleep. The first shot that wakes it doesn't have dual iso on it.

Also, Defishing is broken, it err70's Memory.c # 187 task livev_hiprio_task. lv:1 mode:3 (assert false)
Motion detect wit image diff seemed is dead. The diff square is always black.
Motion detect still works fine with expo diff.

I also had trap focus being a bit unreliable, but it could be cos i had the fisheye on it. *shrug. I'll try with another lens later.

And yes, next time I will heed the blinking light to not remove the MC.

Gday.

A word of warning here.
I took the memory card out of my 6d to update ML on my memory cards and went to watch a movie.
Two hours later, after watching a movie, and updating the ML on the cards I come back to my camera.

I notice it's a bit hot.
I note that the on/off switch is at off.
The camera won't boot when I go to on.
i go off/on/off/on ... no boot.

I put a memory card in and go off/on and it goes on.
I check the battery level, and its got one battery at 20% and the other at 7%. When I went to watch a movie it was at 20% and 100% !! (i had a Meike grip on it)

I think that the 6d has the same problem as the 50d where you have to wait for the card busy light to stop flashing after you open the lid and before you remove the memory card.

boo. *off to charge my camera again.

I'm with virindi in that I've also gotten normal photos as DUALS and DUALS as normal photos and that the alternative DUAL-nonDUAL isn't reliable.

I thought I was going crazy.

I'm with "sim3213" on this.
I also experienced this with the DualISO while filming with the bitrate set to 1, ie 10mbps.
It would happen now and then.

WEeeeeeeeeee!
Works on the 6D
*happy.

Thank you all.

On the latest version. ETTR wouldn't work. It just didn't do anything. Eventually I twiddled the knobs till it worked. I did stuff like turn on Expo Sim (was on DOF button only, now always on). Then it was doing something, but after some fiddling around it said Whoops and gave up. I think the scene was too dark for it to ETTR.

Yay. I found the VM image.

D'oh

Quick Q:
To do developing for the 6d, is there a virtualbox linux image I can just grab, check out code, and modify and deploy?

ooooooh. Yay at Dual ISO.
Boo at PicoC. Meh. One day i'll have a clock on my camera, one day. I'm patient.

Thanks 1% for the fullpack zip.
I'm quite happy to see script examples, inc a clock! Yay a clock.
I haven't tried them out yet but I'm sure gonna do that tomorrow when I get home.

Good work on 50d Dual ISO also, I hope it comes to 6d too one day, no hurry. Yay.

Gday.

I'll update once I'm home. I won't update to the new version while on hols in case it regresses.
Once I'm home i'll have another mini holiday two weeks later, so i'll work the 6d hard again.

Hey 1% n co.
I was out travelling with the fam these last few days and have experienced a few crashes.
Logs are at:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/syogzdreypjre2f/rbMS0D3eDQ

I'll have them there for a week or three.

In one instance, I took a photo and started an audio tag. Then I stopped the audio tag and it started playing back, but, I didn't want it to play back so I wanted to shut it up prematurely. So I switched off the camera and the audio that was playing became chipmunk, ended, and the camera crashed.

Another time where it crashed, I was trying to do a video and it crashed. I think it was cos I accidentally had it set to record wav separate to vid and it wouldn't end recording a video - instead it would crash. It also crashed later doing a second video with normal wav recording - ie not separate.

*shrug

Thanks nonethless, i'm still a happy customer.

Hey Pio

Those are the latest bins.
My guess is 1% is busy with RL.

I installed on my 6D ML. I made some RAW video test's whit supermoon https://vimeo.com/68936611an made some good pictures, etc, etc. But one day in photo mode i shoot again some pictures in cr2, but pictures are not recognized by LR and DxO this time. I reinstall apps on osx 10.8.4 i update osx. Nothing. Only DPP read cr2 files. It was frustrating, and i think and think... I change cards, lenses, try all combinations. Exif was correct in terms of lens, camera, aperture, iso, etc. At the end i go to reinstall firmware 1.1.3. on my 6D and I try to read first cr2 and everything was OK.

Does anybody knows why and what was corrupted? Very often i have error 70.

What LR version are you using? Old LR don't read 6D cr2s. You need at least LR4. If you're a cheapie and don't want to buy LR4 you can use the free Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) converter to convert the cr2s to a standard DNG that every program can read.

Hey 1%.
I saw in the commit logs that
"One Percent      c9d4aef     ADTG shutter! Dual ISO soon!"

Does that mean that you think the 6d will have Dual ISO also?
If so .. Yay! YAY!

That thing with the moiring on highlights/dark areas that Alex was on about ... is that avoidable if one simply shoots at half the resolution?

FYI: I'm running version [6D] RawtypeTEST.zip

Gooday. I have a maybe-bug.

When reviewing photos and pressing the backlight button to get the focus peaking and histogram there is inconsistent behaviour between rear wheel dial and right/left cursor.

If, while the focus peak/histogram is displayed in image review, rotating the scroll wheel results in the peak/histogram vanishing and the previous/next image appearing. If I use the cursor keys then the display gets all jumbled with it trying to do peaking/histogram on the peaking/histogram.

I have tested this in particular with the "raw" focus peaking method. Where the image is b/w and the focused bits are white dots.

Also, although I love the raw mode cos it's easy to tell what's in focus, it gets annoying having to press the play-button-twice to exist image review mode and go back in so that the normal image is displayed. It would be most preferable to have the light-button to enable the peak/histogram mode and then upon another keypress to have it disable the mode. Currently, pressing the light-button over and over again seems to accumulate the histogram/peak results.

I also have a question about the raw histogram. It seems to only be present in LV and not when reviewing, even though a raw pic was taken. (Large Raw and S Jpeg).

Also, the blue and red zebras are underexpose and over expose right? Are these under/over in terms of the raw file or the jpeg?

Thanks for your fantastic work. I really love the 'raw' focus peaks. It's like having a RGBD cam

Thank you 1% and friends.
I deployed "[6D] RawtypeTEST.zip" on one memory card and found:
- format works
- audio tags work
- wifi works
- file browser works
- raw zebras work in LV but not review (I assume by design)
- in camera raw processing works.
- focus peaking works

Everything I ever wanted works! YAY.

Yay 1% Yay!
I love cake. Nomnomnom

Gday.

Any updates on the 113 fir?
Ta.

What's "bvram" ?
