For G15, let me know if you need the camera setup in any particular way :)

It looks like you have the Canon AF Mode set to Continuous rather than Single.  Would you please rerun the test with the AF mode set to Single.

TIA

Hmmm ... not good if you are hoping to set focus via a CHDK script.  However, there are two more things to try.   

First of all,  you have the camera in shutter priority (Tv) mode.  Can you put it into program mode "P"  (and not AUTO please).   

Secondly,  go to the CHDK Miscellaneous menu and enable the menu item that say  Enable Lua Native Calls [ * ] .   Then go to the Script menu and down at the bottom,  enable the menu item that says  Use SS.MFOn [ * ].   

After all that,  rerun the tests and report back again?  Thanks!

sx510, changing default values to:
#undef  CAM_CAN_SD_OVER_NOT_IN_MF
#define CAM_CAN_SD_OVER_IN_AF_LOCK        1
camera now passes 'set_aflock'

Ok SS.MFOn works - I can tell because I was looking at the display and it was taking out of focus pictures :)

If you have time can you try the attached version (G15, 1.00e).
I've made the same change that I used on the G12, after which all tests passed.

Phil,

I've tried, it does the first test and passes.

It starts to run the second test, the screen stops updating then the camera loses all power.

If I enable the native LUA calls it fails the first test, and then stops in the same place on the second test.

Strange that using set_aflock() will cause the second test to fail when it tried to set_focus but the first test passes.

That makes no sense at all.  Can you please post the mf_test.csv from both tests?
