igorb: yes, but from what i understand this isnt relevant for the firmware part and only needed later
Anyway, it works now!
i recompiled the firmware without any modifications to the code to test my compiler setup was working.
i used that new firmware in my camera and it worked!!
thanks to anyone working on this,
awesome!
(im on a mac though, so that problem/solution might not work for someone else
also for anyone else not working on a windows system: the decrypt20d application is provided as exe, so you will need to run it in wine on the compiled .bin file to get a valid firmware)
edit: now that it works, a litle wish list for the devs:
would it be possible to make the AEB do more pictures? for example not just -6, 0,+6 but -6,-3, 0,+3,+6
maybe there is a way to set aeb to a value, let the user take the 3 pictures and then automatically set the aeb to half the original value and let the user take another 3 pictures.
so first -6,0,-6 and then -3,0,3
this would lead to a double "0" image but to me this seems to be a quick way to get this running.
im no developer but since its already possible to stop aeb after one usage, shouldnt it be possible to instead of disabling aeb to set it to half its original value and let one start again?
i hope all this makes sense
