Feature Requests / Re: Quickly reset settings while jumping between filming/photography, new scenes

« on: April 23, 2014, 11:13:39 AM »

Thank you for the answers. Unfortunately Config presets works for "any kind of settings except Canon ones", otherwise that would be it!

Marsu42, I'm on 700D.

Simple use case:
1. Go to M to shoot a movie. Set Cinestyle profile, custom ISO & WB.
2. Shooting is done, turn off the camera.
3. Go to a new place. Realize you want to make a quick portrait picture.
4. Change to Av and turn on the camera.
5. This step I would like to automate, let's call it "reset":
- set automatic ISO, automatic WB, Auto picture style (instead of Cinestyle)
- set exposure compensation to 0 EV

Ideally this "reset" could be accessed also by pre-set button, or something like pressing Menu twice quickly?

Feature Requests / Quickly reset settings while jumping between filming/photography, new scenes

« on: April 15, 2014, 03:31:32 PM »

When shooting films, I set camera to all manual mode, and set custom ISO, WB, Cinestyle profile etc.

If after that I'm taking a picture in a new environment (e.g. in Av mode), I find myself changing multiple settings to auto, exposure compensation to 0 EV, and changing picture profile back. If something's wrong, I can then take control, tweak settings, or develop RAW later.

I know I could jump the wheel to green "AUTO", but I would like to take advantage of semi-automatic modes (Tv, Av, P).

It would be useful when shooting in new environment - imagine you're taking your camera out of your bag, press a button, and start with a "clean sheet" of settings you can tweak if needed

Is this possible?
Can I write a script to do that? Is it possible to code something like:
set_kelvin(AUTO); ?

Feature Requests / Movie player with fast forward[700D]

« on: March 17, 2014, 12:39:44 AM »

Standard movie player has no fast forward/rewind capabilities, at least in my 700D.

When reviewing long clips, it would be very useful. E.g. when camera was set on a tripod, you started recording (with movie-restart on), and then look for a specific moment.

Just an idea
