Rewriting ML to suit the 760 would be a nice passtime, but since the camera obviously is a bit downgraded on the video side, one would fare better with the 70d. It has almost the same features as the 760, but Canon didn't tamper with the bitrate - and we have a perfectly good ML for it. If I'd need a #2 cam with ML, I'd go for a 70d.

But video work is always done on the 700d. I use my 760 for an enormous lot of photography, HDR, street phot, portraits, you name it. With ML it's an outstandingly good workhorse, and with my VH4 Viewfinder it's a jewel to work with. Hi again - I bought a 760d recently, and I love it. Others above are demonstrating the viability for this application.Developing Magic Lantern > Camera-specific Development

For general questions about Magic Lantern, it would be best to start a new thread in the Technique forum.ĭisclaimer, I have not used Motion Detect for lightning myself, but I am a Magic Lantern user for the Canon 7D and the 5D MKII and 5D MKIII. ML is being developed by photo and video enthusiasts, adding functionality such as: HDR images and video, timelapse, motion detection, focus assist tools, manual audio controls much more.'įor a primer of how to use Motion Detect for lightning:įor a description of the Motion Detect module in Magic Lantern: įeel free to ask more questions about the Motion Detect process in this thread. Our only modification was to enable the ability to run software from the memory card. Each time you start your camera, Magic Lantern is loaded from your memory card. Magic Lantern is not a 'hack', or a modified firmware, it is an independent program that runs alongside Canon's own software.

We have created an open framework, licensed under GPL, for developing extensions to the official firmware. 'Magic Lantern is a software enhancement that offers increased functionality to the excellent Canon DSLR cameras.
