What settings can be scripted? For example can IS be turned on and off, or white balance set to auto? Could a script be used to reset the camera to my "normal" settings after using specialized settings. On the other hand, could a script be used to set up specialized settings that I might use for example star photos?
Most settings can be used or changed from within a script, there are several ways to do this:
a) call the related command directly -
[1],
[2]b) change related
PropertyCase values (read them with
get_prop, write/change them with
set_prop) (sample:
[3])
c) use emulated keystrokes to select/change values through the Canon menus, e.g. like
in this sample.
Using these three methods combined, you should be able to set up whatever you want...
