@ mngc:
i do not have this problem with the zebra not working that you have. make sure that you have the latest autobuild build!
also could we please get our own forum section for the a590 building? its getting a bit confusing having it compressed in one thread -_-
Second paragraph don't understand, sorry.
Zebra mode problem, in review mode, detailed description:
My camera: Canon a590is Firmware 1.01b
Dowloaded this chdk:
a590-101b-0.8.7-608-full.zip
Now format as fat the memory card with cardtricks 1.34 and click "Make bootable"
and select CHDK->Card. Now i removed the card from card reader, and press lock button on card to locked.
Now put it to camera back, and power on.
Alt->Main menu->Miscellaneous stuff->Show build info-> CHDK 0.8.7-608
Now swith the camera to shooting mode, and shoot the test picture, with large highly overexposured region.
Switch back to picture REVIEW mode, and Alt->Main menu->Zebra parameters->Draw zebra->Enable
Exit menu, and half press shutter button. Zebra blinking, but bad, not on the overexposed region. Small points, and lines blinking. Sample picture attached is this message. you can see the problem in test image.
In picture review mode, pressing disp button, to see the zebra, built in orignal Canon function without CHDK, the zebra ok, large gray area blinking on correct overexposured region.
Switch to picture shooting mode, and half press shutter button. Zebra blinking, and ok.
Please help, thanks.
