I'm playing with an A480 cheapie which doesn't have a Manual Focus mode.
Focus distance is settable and works in the default menu
but I can't do it in a script
. Trying with variations of
click "shoot_half"
set_focus X
q=get_focus
set_aflock 1
click "shoot_full"
q=get_focus
with sleeps and prints - I see q always gets changed in the shoot_full.
So the default script calls must have lower level routines available? (How do I access those
)
Or am I missing something?
There are suggestions that it's doable, in old posts - is it camera specific or same with all AF-only ones?
And - is it the same story for setting Aperure(NDfilter)/shutter where there's no manual exposure mode?
Thanks.
