Sounds strange.  How could it be busy with taking or storing photos, if it was asleep?  Are you doing something unusual before or after it goes to sleep?

Because I'm waking it up with the shutter button and I'm taking images, but those images that are being taken are without the Dual-ISO module being loaded. The module only gets loaded later. How much later seems to vary, which might or might not be related to how busy the camera and card is.

No I haven't, and the current card is a Class 10. But I already had thought that it might be related to the card, however, so far it hasn't given me any other troubles (no writing errors, no corrupted images, no read errors, no speed reduction that I would have noticed...).

I will test the card and then the behavior with another one. Thanks all for the comments so far.

Yes, I'm seeing that delay even with all other modules disabled, too.

The time until the module becomes available seems to vary, though, might be related to how "busy" the camera is with taking and storing photos, bu that is a wild guess of mine. Haven't had that much time to do thorough tests.

I'm now using the latest lua_fix version, and the problem is there, too.

It seems like that the modules (all of them) are not loaded for up to 30 seconds after the camera wakes up.


  • Camera is switched on.
  • Dual-ISO is enabled
  • Not having taken a photo for several minutes, camera has gone to sleep.
  • Pressing the shutter button, camera wakes up, takes picture without Dual-ISO.
  • ~10-30 seconds later the Dual-ISO module gets loaded and pictures are taken with Dual-ISO again.

When I wake the camera up and go into the Magic Lantern menu, the options for the modules do not appear there. The modules are visible as enabled in the module-list menu, though. If I wait in the Magic Lantern menu, the module options will pop-in when the module gets loaded "later".

Any ideas?

Oh, wasn't aware that that exists. Thank you, will give it a try.

I've got a Canon EOS 60D with Magic Lantern (Nightly.2018May01.60D111) and I've found myself using Dual-ISO a lot lately. However, *sometimes* the camera takes "normal" pictures without Dual-ISO even though it is enabled in the ML settings. I could not pinpoint when exactly that happens, but it seems to me like the module isn't loaded "fast enough" when the camera wakes up from standby. Though, that is only a hunch, sometimes it seems that if flings out after taking some pictures.

Has somebody seen something like that before? Or is there an automatic which disables Dual-ISO in certain conditions which I'm not aware of?

Thanks for the pointers, turns out that the dependency to python-docutils is not optional but required for the build...interesting.

It now compiles fine, thank you.

General Development / Unable to compile cr2hdr.

I'm trying to compile cr2hdr (part of the Dual ISO module) under Linux and have been following this guide on how to compile it. The compilation of Magic Lantern itself works, however, all modules fail to compile because they can't find "module_strings.h". I'm sure I'm missing something simple here, can somebody point me to what I'm doing wrong?
