XTiUser, last version of autoexec.bin corrects 2 small issues regarding menu behaviour that canixus noted, it doesn't add new features
I was thinking about ISO and direct print button in the meantime - since it seems that this feature isn't useful to part of 400D owners, that are shooting raw, as it can be obtained in raw developer software, what about adding an option to Info menu to have this functionality enabled or disabled ? Those who don't need this functionality (like me) could disable it, so that ISO can't be accidentally changed by pressing the DP button.
Other option would be to have this functionality enabled only in camera ISO menu (it also works there now) - You press ISO button, select for instance ISO 400, press DP once, then exit menu with shutter half press and voila - ISO 500 set
Any comments about this ?
(1) To the contrary - for this RAW shooter, setting the high ISO and matching screen rendition in one step is much more convenient than adjusting them independently (and only approximately for the screen). Also, the developer software - at least Lightroom - doesn't have to be told to brighten up the shot either.
Making the Print button only change the ISO at the ISO menu would make sense
only if there's an on-screen indication of what ISO you're setting while you're cycling through the values. If we'd have to work blind, it would be less useful than the present method, which lets you see what you're doing. Instead of disabling the present method, why not come up with a "this is the value I want - stop cycling" keystroke? I nominate the SET button for this, since we're already comfortable with using it that way.
(2) Can I get a response to my idea about using the main dial to select focus patterns? I've posted that suggestion twice to dead silence in response. If you can't isolate and use the output of the main dial, just say so and I'll stop bugging you about it.
