Canon 1DM3 issue

Postby Forrest » Sun Jun 18, 2017 9:06 pm

SEM with my 5DM2 works perfectly...not the case with my 1DM3, however.

SEM recognizes the camera, will take individual frames using the keyboard or "Push Shutter", or Hardware->configuration->fire, BUT it will not fire in any script whatsoever. Console always returns: " (Date, Time) Solar Eclipse Maestro[8236] <Notice>: Error 'Invalid Function Parameter' while taking picture on Canon camera #1 '1DM3' (line #XX)". Does not matter if there is one line in the script or 50. Does not matter if I manually write the script or use the configuration wizard. Something in the standard line "#Action,Date/Ref,Offset Sign,Time Offset,Camera,Exposure,Aperture,ISO,MLU/Burst Number,Quality,Size,Incremental,Comment" the 1D does not like. I've tried changing them all, one at a time...no joy!

Any help here would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Forrest

I would suspect you're trying to use mirror lock-up in your script with this camera. Does this work
Code: Select all
TAKEPIC,C2,-,00:30.0,1DM3,1/1000,8.0,100,0.0,RAW,None,Y,Without mirror lock-up


Can you also send me in a text file the content of a properties analysis of the 1D Mark III, see http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/solar_eclipses/Solar_Eclipse_Maestro_Help/pgs/c1sem58.html

No, that did not work. I had experimented with both MLU yes, and MLU no, and neither had any effect.
I sent the Camera Properties file to your e-mail. For some reason I can not attach a .txt file to this thread..."The extension txt is not allowed"

Some of the answers are in your properties analysis file.
First the USB product ID was wrong which causes the camera model not to be identified properly.
Second I noticed that the serial number of your camera is completely off the charts and this is likely due to the fact that the firmware of your camera has not been updated: you have version 1.1.3 and version 1.3.2 is available. The firmware upgrade will likely fix the serial number issue (not the first time I see this with Canon cameras) and hence the camera will be properly referenced by the short name you have given.

Just wanted to see what the fix (if any) was on this.

I'm having the same issue and have been unable to get it to work.
