Is it possible to intercept 60d BGMT_*PRESS_ZOOM*_MAYBE outsive lv?

[Marsu42]

On 60d, I cannot install a handler for the BGMT_*PRESS_ZOOM*_MAYBE events - it shows an event in live view, but outside lv it doesn't seem to work since my 60d ignores the handler.

Is there any other possibility to intercept and use this this button (zoom in, on the top right on the back of the camera) on the 60d outside lv? Can I probably bend the Canon functions that are triggered by this key to some custom ml code?

Theoretically it should be possible by directly reading data from the IO manager chip. Pratically we don't have a clue on how to do that

Ok, thanks for the reply - I hope sometime you in-depth ml guys figure it out because only being able to use a couple of keys is rather limiting :-o
