Verified this works on SD500. Works like a charm! (even when zooming in a little, them zoom out to orig focal length) Can we include this in all the regular builds, so that everybody will have MF? All that needs to happen is that before MF is engaged, the cam needs to zoom in to next value, then zoom out, then enable MF.
I cant figure out why the cam freezes if the zoom wasnt used, but i guess there is a reason.. dont believe that a automated zoom in & out is necessary.. (If that is what you had in mind)
Still wondering, is this a hardware or software problem? Something has to change when the cam zooms - i just cant figure out what.. Ideas?
