Caduceus v0.19 (early development)

⚠️ Unofficial, experimental firmware modification. Bugs will appear and flashing can brick your camera or lose data. The author accepts no responsibility for any damage. Provided "as is", without warranty (Apache License 2.0 §7–8). Without the EP7MOD folder the camera is almost stock; the restore file returns it fully to stock 1.1.

What's new

  • Tone per look: every film look now carries its own tone curve. Picking a look on the Film page applies its Highlights / Midtones / Shadows (through the camera's own tone control) and its Blacks / Whites: deeper blacks for slide films, softer whites for negatives, punchy narrow range for Polaroid, and so on.
  • Blacks and Whites per colour profile (−5..+5): new controls that move the very ends of the tone curve, which stock Highlight/Shadow never touches. Adjust them on the colour editor's Extras sectors 6 and 7; applied to photos and live view.
  • Look tweaks: Polaroid punchier, Atrophy's blacks toned down, Cuban Neg bloom 3.
  • Caduceus Control Panel updated: tone sliders with a live tone-curve graph, tone in share codes, exports the v0.19 LOOKS.BIN.
  • Setup › Firmware shows Caduceus: 0.19.

Install / update

No firmware files are attached (OM's licence forbids redistributing their firmware). Download the source zip below and double-click the launcher for your system (or run python3 caduceus.py build --release v0.19). Copy DCOLYMP and the new EP7MOD/LOOKS.BIN to the SD card, then hold OK while switching on to flash. Keep your own EP7MOD/BUNDLES.BIN (your saved looks). Full guide: README › Install.

Note: a BUNDLES.BIN that uses Blacks/Whites needs v0.19 firmware (older firmware ignores the whole file).

Only the E-P7 on firmware 1.1 is supported. If you enjoy it: buy me a coffee ☕
