Hi guys, i just found out about this, and it's awesome ! I have a question/suggestion ( don't know squat about firmware programming).
Would it be possible to implement option like AF confirmation with all lenses...not just canon ones ?

There are autofocus-confirmation adapters for other lens mounts, but this would be more elegant solution....

actually I tried to do this, but didn't succeed. It may be possible but I don't know how to do it.
better get a adapter from hongkong ;)


I have a new version here with some improvements in the code (more simple, much less code that writes to random memory positions ;) ) and some new features, but I don't upload it now because I am doing more stuff right now and it wouldn't make much sense to upload a new version today and a new version again tomorrow.

things that are implemented:
the last custom function is accessible, af-point selection mode (personally consider it pretty useless)
review time can be set to any value from 1 to 30 seconds in 1 seconds intervals instead of only the values available in the menu (eg you could like to have a 1 second or 3 seconds review time, this would normally not be possible)
auto power off time can be set to any value from 1 to 60 minutes (ok, this is pretty useless too because the un-hacked available values are all most people will ever nee ;) )

time-lapse frames and interval are also saved to the settings file now.
time-lapse function automatically sets review time to hold and lcd brightness to min at the beginning and back at the end of time-lapse (very useful! (until we find a way to code a time-lapse that doesn't need the review time-hold "cheat")

planned: timer function (you set a time eg 10 minutes, start the countdown and when it's down to 0 the camera shoots, or starts a time-lapse)
planned: automatic flash exposure bracketing
planned: flash exposure compensation with bigger range than the standard +-2

Up/Down changes the ISO after hitting info
sorry but that is not possible with our code ;) up/down changes the position in the menu, left/right changes the settings (eg ISO)
for some menu points you also need the SET, MENU, INFO and PLAY buttons ie for time-lapse, raw+jpeg stuff (that DOESNT WORK)

are you sure you followed the instructions exactly? because if you DONT hack your camera and press the UP button in the info menu, it goes to iso setting menu



oh and btw REQUESTS AND REPORTS ARE VERY WELCOME!
if anything doesn't work, post here. if you want something, post here. you want another language for the hacked menu settings? post here.

Able to select ISO 3200, so I assumed the hack is OK.  Maybe I will clear the CF card and try again though.

Thanks for the help!

Reloaded a different autoexec.bin file and all looks ok now.  Thanks for all the help.  Lots to learn.

How to use the time lapse function?  I see how to set the times in the info screen, but how do you activate?

Thanks

Is there a tutorial on using the time lapse hack anywhere, can't seem to get it to work properly?

Thanks
