[gpi]

“UnDutchables 0.2.3 firmware” for the Canon Digital Rebel (300D)
Released March, 2005

All enhancements over Canon 1.1.1

• Custom function menu found on the last page in the menu
• Ability to define how the SET button behaves (same menu found on the 10D
- refer to the 10D manual for full explanation of these new enhancements)
• Exposure level increments either 1/2 or 1/3-stop
• Option to enable 1/200th flash speed sync in AV mode
• Ability to change the JPG size when shooting in RAW mode
• Shutter release with or without CF card
• FEC adjustment via the JUMP button, use the dial to adjust as shown on the LCD, only in Creative Modes
• ISO3200 now available, and is represented by an "H" in the LCD - same as how the 10D shows this
• Mirror lockup available via enabling the option in the custom function, works by pressing the shutter
button which flips the mirror up, then the shutter opens after the timeout defined in C.Fn17 after MLU -
note that this is different than how it is implemented on the 10D where you press once to flip the mirror
and press again to open the shutter
• Mirror lockup delay adjustable via C.Fn17 – possible delay includes 1.5 sec, 3 sec, 4.5 sec, 6 sec, 7.5
sec, and 10 sec
• Immediately pressing the ERASE button after taking a photo, you can delete the photo by pressing the
SET button again instead of selecting Ok previously, to not delete the photo press any other key
• In Creative modes, right button changes the focus mode and is displayed on the LCD as follows:
o AF OF Lens set to manual focus
o AF OS One shot
o AF SE AI-Servo (selectable but cannot take a photo - one workaround, press left to release the
shutter)
o AF AI AI-Focus (first takes one shot then the camera may switch to AI-servo depending on what
you are focussing on)
• Continues Drive in Basic Mode
• White balance selection in Basic modes
• Custom Function 1 available in basic modes enabling:
o Quality Select via SET button, this means that RAW can be set in basic modes.
o Parameter select via SET buttons
o Menu via SET button
o Image Replay via SET button
• White balance bracketing is working is basic modes.

Enhancement over UnDutchables 0.1.0

- Full menu's in basic mode including RAW quality
- Full Info screen in basic mode
- AF-mode select moved to right key
- Left button press turns AF off, release turns AF on again.
Effectively this puts the lens in manual mode while the left button is pressed.
Pressing it when in AI-Servo mode will therefore release the shutter.
You loose AF during button press though. This means that AI servo does not support predictive focusing.

By AI-Servo mode , proves the camera known by that focusere. Of which that f. eks is motersport there photographer and the car upcoming against yourself , pressing you disconnect half down , so vil the camera transform focus while the car upcoming against yourself. Catching you so pressing disconnect all down is the car as early as to focus , and the camera shall no make use of age at ultimate that fokusere.

Sorry my english ;o)


AI-Servo mode:

- Left button toggle AF enable/disable and can be used to shoot in AI-Servo mode.
(in AI Servo normal shutter release fully pressed and than also press 'left' button will release the shutter.)
