EOS 650D/T4i "Camera error" #2
Comments
All versions of the Canon SDK since 2.10 have been extremely unstable. If you have access to the SDK, you are free to build your own version. |
Good news: I've succesfully build my own version with ESDK 2.13.2 and now it works flawlessly! Download link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qw5efegxg1mzn6c/Camera.Live.5.1-OSX-10.8.zip (updated) |
VisualBoy, I am using a T4i and also get the 'Camera Error' message. The camera either doesn't show up at all in the list. Or with some finagling it shows up, but when selected I get the error message. I found your post here and downloaded your ZIP file, but it crashes every time I start. Could this be an OS issue? I'm on a Mac using OS 10.9. Thanks. |
@VisualBoy's app build links a dynamic library that isn't bundled into the application or part of a default OS install, so the app dies after it fails to load it: @bangnoise - the instability you have run into, is that just the crash |
I found another alternative that is using the updated SDK, and it works with my camera. So I'm good. |
@pizthewiz I'm not sure what crash you're seeing, but the big issue is an intermittent crash when a camera is powered off during Live View, which occurs outside of any of my calls into the SDK. Additionally the callback for camera state events is no longer called unless a session is open to the camera, making it impossible to track presence for multiple cameras. There may be others... these two are enough to put me off. |
@THTM Actually I've built my own version for OSX 10.8 ML I've re-built a newer version with all static lib: You can download new version here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qw5efegxg1mzn6c/Camera.Live.5.1-OSX-10.8.zip |
@VisualBoy I build libjpegturbo myself rather than use their download, so obviously make sure you adapt the project if your distribution has different binaries (sounds like you now have). |
Just noting that the EDSDK v2.15 still doesn't send |
anyone succeeded to make it works with t4i? |
I can successfully get everything linked and built with v2.15 on 10.10.4 Yosemite, but I get the 'camera error' message. @VisualBoy or @pizthewiz - is there something specific that you messed with to get things running with the new sdks? Happy to push a fix if I can find one. Edit: I've got a 5D mk III |
Alternatively, if someone could point me towards the place that error message comes from, I may be able to dig in. Not a ton of native chops though :/ |
I get "Camera Error" message with my T4i, probably because you're using version 2.10 of ESDK.
There is some chances to have a build with version 2.12?
