Canon 70D

[DeafEyeJedi]

Perhaps there are two different versions of 70D (older/newer) as far as we know, right?

How about try both and see which one works for you?

Doesn't hurt to try...

[nikfreak]

@DeafeyeJeydi: did you already check adtg_gui.mo (module)?

I requested to check FRAME_CMOS register earlier...

[DeafEyeJedi]

Oh I assumed I did it already?

http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=14309.msg145923#msg145923

Or no?

[nikfreak]

That was the stubs test.
When you load adtg_gui it will show-up on debug menu. Let me know if it shows up / activates and prints lots of stuff...

Hey! I hope I write this at the right place. I'm experiencing an issue with Dual ISO on my 70D Revision B, Magic Lantern Alpha 5b (that one that fixed the display issues). It seems to be related to the cr2hdr process though. I am using it on a Mac with the specialized version for the 70d provided in the first post.

I tried a test shot from my balcony. A reference shot in ISO 100 looks right, then I took a dual ISO 100/1600. When I look at that file in Lightroom CC, I see both the ISO 100 version and the ISO 1600 version interlaced and they both seem to be okay, so what the cam produces seems to be good. When I then converted it into a dng using cr2hdr in the result all highlights are simply blown away and cannot be brought back in lightroom. All the bricks of the building in the picture are just gone. It more or less looks like only the ISO 1600 picture.

Am I doing something wrong? I tried Dual ISO with my 550d a while ago and did not have any problems with that. Since then I have updated to Lightroom CC. Might the DNG creation process be an issue here?

One more thing: During replay of the Dual ISO file in the camera, it indicates to be switching back and forth between "bright" and "dark". The images I am seeing though seem to be very much alike. None of those is eighther darker or brighter than the other.

All my files are here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dnoiuhnqanjcbha/AADccyx0pHU2IiZhBCofNkM2a?dl=0

Edit: Found out it works well in Lightroom 5 but does not in Lightroom 6, so I'm quite sure it is not a 70D issue but rather related to either Adobe or the cr2hdr tool.

It works fine.

Hey there,

I have another question concerning shooting in RAW.
I've read that the 70D output is throtteled down to 42mb/s. So it doesnt matter which SD card you're using, as long as it isnt under 42mb/s.
So when shooting raw @ 24fps the highest resolution you can choose is 1344x756? Am I right?

Thank you,
cheers,
Phengaris

Please switch to movie mode and make a picture of CMOS 0000 at ISO 100. Press Q on activated ADTG registers module and it show you lots of results while in movie mode. Post also a screenshot of the liveview output of CMOS 0000 at ISO 100.

Can you confirm the following values for 70D_111B

/* Movie Mode
        100 - 0x4045349a value (0x3)
        200 - 0x404534c8

        3200 -0x40453580
        6400 -0x40453ae value (0xdb) */
       
        is_70d = 1;   

        FRAME_CMOS_ISO_START = 0x4045349a; // CMOS register 0000 - for LiveView, ISO 100 (check in movie mode, not photo!)

6400 - 0x404535ae

edit:
if I have LV in photo mode, I have in cmos[0]
100 - 40453666 value 0x27
next values are different too
what is wrong?

If you talking about continuous recording you are right. But often 12-14 is enought for one shot. I'm shoot at 1824*776 fot 12-14 sec. If you need more rec time reducing resolution it's only way. Or buy camera with CF slot.

[winfel]

Answering on myself. I tried it in LR5 on another computer and the file is just great... trying it out at home again later. Must have been something I was doing wrong.

Edit: Found out it works well in Lightroom 5 but does not in Lightroom 6, so I'm quite sure it is not a 70D issue but rather related to either Adobe or the cr2hdr tool.

[camslide]

I have noticed, that since flashing ML alpha5b on my 70D (old firmware), the card access LED ist flashing every ~4seconds thoug the camera is turned off.  Is this normal or is it a bug?

[nikfreak]

@camslide: tried to remove your battery? if that didn't help just reset ML to defaults via settings and retry.

[oaydin]

Not sure if anyone is having this problem, I downloaded and am using the latest Alpha5b (today 23rd April), on my 70D.

Whilst in the ML menu after press the delete button, the ML menu screen quits by itself and then go straight back in to the Live screen. This happens whilst in video mode, not picture mode. I should also point out i'm Manual mode too.

CMOS 0000 at ISO 100

Hum.  I am a newbee there so don't know how.

In video mode (1000 / ISO100) results are swapping between this :

Not sure if anyone is having this problem,

You may want to read the first post in this thread ...

[DeafEyeJedi]

That was the stubs test.

Ah I thought it would be included in it, my bad -- However, I ran the stubs test again once more and got one failed. Not sure why?

Ran through the ADTG registers and scrolled through the CMOS sections to try put it in playback mode... this is what I'm seeing (not sure if I'm doing this correctly though):

Is it not a good idea to use the shutter wheel to change it's info per how I did it via clip above? 

[BirdPics]

Hey everyone,

I'm an avid wildlife photographer but only just came across this. As i'm not rich enough to start bricking cameras yet I'm going to hold off using the Alpha version for a while. But I would like to know what features and if Magic Lantern would benefit me as a wildlife photographer. If someone could quickly explain I'd be very grateful, thanks

[camslide]

@camslide: tried to remove your battery? if that didn't help just reset ML to defaults via settings and retry.

One of both helped. Thank you!

[nikfreak]

DeafeyeJedi plz press Q button on all that activated / changed registered (those which have a green dot color). Pressing Q will set default values. Use your posted video to see and check also the default / initial videos before you changed each of those. Better do not play around like you did but anyways thanx for providing needed information.

[wpociej]

I've installed the ML in my canon (rev. B) and ML live view does not work at all, nor any overlays in live view. No matter what I enable it sill only displays default canon live view menu. Am I missing something, or is that some kind of bug?

[Frarike]

On version A I recorded some raw and mlv. I then deleted the files on the computer and when I put the card back in I got a load of error messages about modules not loading.

[DeafEyeJedi]

@nikfreak:

Okay ill try that in momentarily soon. Would I be screwed if I had accidentally changed (good thing I was recording myself otherwise)?

What was the exact info you needed that I supposedly provided?

Because my gut feeling was telling me that I didnt do this correctly... 

[ShootMeAlready]

Ok so I used a blower and manual cleaned the sensor (a few times).
Removed the VAF.  and set high ISO NR to strong.
I notice lots of hot pixels at ISO 3200, they start at about 10s then slowly increase but at around 22s there are lots.

ISO 800, no VAF, high ISO NR strong = no hot pixels.

So something about 1600+ &  ISO liveview being on longer, is causing hot pixels ... hmmm perhaps its temperature or noise???

My T3i in MLV_raw does not have this is issue.  800 ISO is too low.
