Hi, It seems that some properties like kEdsPropID_ShutterCounter are supported for cameras using the DIGIC III processor (like the 40D) while they are not for...
I was under the impression that shutter count was not actually tracked in the 20D (and 5D?). I could be wrong, this impression was formed from discussions...

... Hi Tom, If you bring a 5D to a Canon repair center, they will be able to give you the shutter count by using the "Canon Adjustment Software". So if this...
any idea what thickness the reflex mirror is on the 300d? i just ordered 3 sizes, they were supposed to be 1/8 1/16 1/32... i ended up with 1/8 and 2 1/16......
... I don't know the exact thickness of the mirror, but I do have a couple of pieces of information that might be useful. 1. The camera was designed native...
thanks for all of the info, was trying to avoid calling canon on this one as i can usually work around issues like this. i suspected that the mirror would be...
Hi, I'm new to the group - thanks for accepting me in! I want to install one of the hacks available to the eos300d, but I'm not quite sure which one to choose:...
Being able to use a flash above 1/200th is a function of the particular flash's capabilities, which must have FP (focal-plane) mode, that indicates the flash...
Hi, I am in the process of modifying my 300D to accept old Minolta manual focus lenses by replacing the EF flange with a specially made MD flange. Since the...
I'm sorry, but I cannot help you with this. But seeing what you are doing which is in line with what I intend to do I have the following question: Can anyone...
As far as I know, the specification does not exist outside of Canon. All 3rd party lens makers obtained the info through reverse engineering and this is why...
Thanks for the Canon website adress. The picture contains enough information for me to know now not to try anything with the signal pins. The idea I am...
To adapt FD mount lenses is a bigger challenge mechanically. I think the FD flange-to-film distance is 42mm vs 44mm of the EF. You have to reduce by 2mm with...
i'm interested in doing some long-duration capturing that will generate thousands of frames. think security cam only much higher quality. i already have a 5d...

thanks bruce. interesting. have not tested a panasonic but i have tested my canon 5d against a nikon d200 and found that the digic sensor of the canon was...
thanks for the tip, bruce. interesting. one thing, though. i haven't done any testing with a panasonic, but the tests i did with a nikon d200 vs my canon 5d...
The article you mentioned in your original post had the lens/shutter/AND sensor assembly removed. Even if you could remove just the lens and shutter, I do not...
i'm photograhing into a projector. if removing the lens and shutter still allows the sensor to send images to the card or a computer (i'm using the eos utility...
i'm just starting to get a grasp on the whole shutter/shutterless idea. does anyone know if the mirror mechanism on the 5d is separate from a shutter...
The 5d has a mirror lockup function, so you press the shutter button once to flip up the mirror, then you can wait as long as you want before pressing the...
thanks ron. question: can you take more than one picture with the mirror locked up? or does it close down after one image (or a bracket)? i'd be looking to...
