Hello all ! I have posted the spreadsheets in Files folder for synchronisation tests carried-out on some supported cameras. This gives you an idea of what is...
I added some pictures of my remote for SDM (see Photos on this group) - it's a 3xAA battry holder (inside: 3* 1.2V rechargeable battreies), a switch and...
When the camera is in Tv mode and we enable flash on BOTH cameras, on pressing the USB-remote button the preflash fires on both cameras. Presumably, this...
In about a weeks time, we should have the results of synchronisation tests on the ixus55/SD450 and ixus70/SD1000. The person who ported the basic CHDK to the...
Wow, that is great news. The SD1000 in particular looks very interesting. This is a 12 megapixel sensor, with larger sensor size (and so, better high-ISO...
Iin the "Continuous-shooting synchronised-flash PCB" all 4 pins of the usb connector are used, is there any benefit to this or do you get the same results from...
... Hi Craig. The connector SV3 on the right-edge of the circuit-board only uses power and ground. Two connections are for the left camera and two are for the...
... This is the page to keep an eye on (assuming it is up-to-date) :- http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/For_Developers The SD950 reference is coloured black meaning...
A new folder has been added to scripts for the A570 and A720 cameras. In future, it may apply to other cameras. The Canon software will get or set various...
Do you know if it could be possible to set Exif data in the pictures taken when using SDM? I am thinking in setting the rotation tag for the camera that is...
I'm currently sitting on the fence (having a difficult time making a decision) whether to buy two A570 or two A720 cameras. As I recall, the A720 had slightly...
... It is not officially released yet .. you can always ask for it here. There are owners of A570 and A720 twin-rigs in this Group. A570 synch about 1/2000 sec...
Thanks, David I have to plead ignorance and ask what a 'one-off' test is. Duke David Sykes <killspammers2@...> wrote: ... It is not officially released...
... It is not possible to add information before the picture is saved. ... On my A620, I can get that information from the orientation sensor. Unfortunately,...
... Ehhhh .. a test that has only been done once :-) All the CRT synch tests have only been provided by one tester in all cases. It would be useful for other...
Someday when you see the distant wildlife (or whatever) and you want to zoom in as far as possible, the A720's extra zoom will come in handy. Those instances...
Yes, one test with one pair of cameras. Not a statistical sampling by any means. Will a different pair yield the same sync speeds? Time will tell. But I...
Please excuse if this has been answered before, but I've not found any explanation on how the two cameras are synchronised with such precision by using SDM. ...
... but the synch then drifts and may not be good the instant unscripted action occurs. ... Shooting an image on detection of button-push provides poor ...
Hello duke,
> I see the 710 but not the 720 listed.
the 720 is not listed yet, since there are some minor changes to be done to some scripts - please wait...
I have 6.8v going into each of two A570's, but the shutters are only triggered on button-press, not button-release. I imagine my synch would be much better if...
6.8 volts may be too high and could damage the cameras USB ports a simple way to bring the voltage down is to connect a diode in line each one will drop about...
... Are you in 'sync' mode ? The word 'Synch' should be displayed at the top of the screen. Are you using the simple remote script or Synch.bas ? You should be...
David, Assuming the synch tests for ixus55/SD450 and ixus70/SD1000 look acceptable, will the download files for these models be made available on the...
