edit: interesting, image buffer is 720x214 in movie mode, HD is 1280x720 fixed

And I've fixed the last reproducible issue, focus peaking in movie mode!!!!

woooooh, yay., that was the problem i was talking about before, thanks nanomad. GREAT job!
and the focus peaking is fixed. sooooo, when is the next release ?and how do you use the smooth iso transition.?

nanomad

I'm waiting for kapueblo to reproduce his issue. Then there will probably be one last RC.

To use smooth exposure you just need to set it to on and then it will kick in every time you change any of the exposure paramters in ML menu (aperture, speed or ISO)

Hello, sorry for my English.
Today install ML, all OK, thank you.
Just one question, some words are very small and low quality, is solved?
What else is there to improve?

Thanks for your great work.

Thank you, guys for all of your hard work.  I, like many others, learned to live with the capped potential of the T3. Now my camera has new life, haha.

One question, though.  I see that in the movie mode, Canon's Digital Gain can be pushed up one more stop of ISO (12800) instead of the native of just 6400.

Is this just exclusive to movie mode or can you make that available for the photo modes as well?

Also is the HDR bracketing not working for everyone? When i try to use it the camera starts cycling through menus and taking pictures on its own and i have to do a battery pull.

Unfortunately, no. The small fonts is due to the very low (and weird) screen resolution

Very high ISO is only available in movie mode since we are digitally pushing the ISO of the movie buffer.
HDR bracketing works fine here. Try clearing canon's settings, you may have something that interferes with it

Hi everybody,

I installed the RC3 on my 1100D monday and start testing it. It's my first try on ML so I'm quite uncomfortable with it, and maybe some bugs are not ...

I followed the install procedure in the zip file, and reset camera settings.

1) Strange value (-2147483) in FPS override submenu

2) Bottom help said Wheel to change value, but wheel change the menu section (Movie / Image / Display ...)
http://i.imgur.com/axrNJ.jpg

3) In expo menu, the LV display values can't be changed
http://imgur.com/a/V4huY#2

4) Despite Arrow/SET Shorcuts options set as in first image (defaults), when in video mode the up/down keys are moving the AF white rectangle, so I can't edit settings in LV mode.

5) Despite ISO set to 320, LV report a record in 6400 (auto I think). When I go back to M mode to check if value was saved, it still shows 320.
http://imgur.com/a/V4huY#5
To access ML Menu I switch to M mode on the camera, and go back to video mode to see if values are set. Is it the nice way ? Are setting kept for each mode or shared ?


6) Several crash in help menu navigation, can't remember the error, but something like 70. Will try to find a way to reproduce.

7) Where I activated Exp. Override and staying on the menu entry, the value sometimes change in an strange way, showed 0.0000 and other values I don't remember. I'll try do get it repoduced and capture it.


Thanks for your help.

Thanks for reporting

1) Definitely a bug, probably related to the fact that the 1100D has a strange internal timer
2) That's because we don't have the back wheel :P... I'll remove it since it's useless
3) Somehow it shows the 3 buttons while it should only show one fixed value, I'll probably hide that menu option as it's useless on this camera
4) This is an open discussion. The camera lacks a free physical button to enable shortcuts....if you have any ideas please say so.
4) Checking it
6) The camera has a low amount of free memory so the help function isn't really stable.
7) Checking it

2) refers to the top wheel; the back wheel is always used for up/down navigation. The top wheel moves left/right normally, but in submenus and in the edit mode it changes current value.

Whoo, faaaast ! : )

I edited my 5), maybe I'm using it the wrong way.

4) 5dII 50d can manage long pressure on joystick. Should use this feature on the set button for exemple.

I always configure my video settings in video mode, I think you should do the same. And make sure you have exposure override to ON or Auto (otherwise it won't work on the 1100D)

hey nanomad. I've been tinkering around with the settings to see what causes the glitch, but so far no luck :(

it may be something in my settings, but i'm not sure what. I've already tried clearing my settings on both my camera and ML, but still no luck.

may I ask how you what are your settings on your 1100d? maybe if i set it to your settings the problem might disappear

nanomad

- Canon + ML settings to default
- HTP Off
- ALO On
- High Speed Noise Reduction normal
- Auto ISO max 3200
- Exposure override Auto(ON)
- Smooth exposure on

That should be it

Hello nanomad. when the camera is in LiveView (video or photo), it is difficult to enter the menu of ML, AV must be pressed repeatedly to enter ML menu. But in viewfinder mode, always enters the ML menu OK.

thanks

nanomad

Yes, it's a known issue. Guessing the state of the on-screen "AV compensation icon" is kinda hard and you have to press the button a couple of times to make it register properly

As a happy user of ML2.3 on my 50D I have RC3 running on my 1100D for two days. I'll report my findings and error logs here.

When trying to change FPS I cannot change the values for the timers

Hello nanomad. For when RC4. We dream of a final version?.

Did you enable FPS override?

Yes I did and pressed Q to bring up the submenu for it, and neither the timer values or the actual fps value change from 0, so when I close it the fps override value stays at 0

nanomad

Weird, can you upload a video? (from the power up to the moment you try to change values)

Yesterday ml/1100D crashed. The log can be found here:
http://www24.zippyshare.com/v/97654330/file.html

I do not know which settings were active or what I was doing.
Sorry for that. I'll pay more attention next time.

There are shorter (and more helpful) logs under ML/LOGS directory.

Maybe they should be moved back to root dir, so user notices them easier?

Canon logs (created with Canon code) can't be moved easily.

Minor (unimportant) issue: shutter count is not updated after taking a picture.
Turning the camera off and on shows the new shutter count.
