Problem with pre-release 3.1.18 and Canon 250D SL3


mtenboer

Question

I understand that the Canon SL3 is not yet supported, but I saw a post in July about supporting the SL3 in pre-release version 3.1.18.  When I test the camera with that version,  it connects properly  but when I click the Frame and Focus button the camera LCD shows an error message and BYE locks up.  The message is "Error 70   An error prevented shooting.  Turn the camera off and on again or re-install the battery"  Turning the camera off and on has no effect.  I have to reinstall the battery to reset it.    Please advise if I am doing something wrong or if I can provide more information.

The version was 3.2.0.

I recently helped the other SL3 owner with a personal shoot.  I was standing on a stool and holding the camera at arm's length over my head and could not see the fixed LCD on the camera I was using.  With BYEOS, the other person could have helped with framing and focus then snapped the shutter when it suited him.  That camera was tethered but did not have the functions that BYEOS has.  Also the full screen liveview would be of value for table top, close-up,  macro, and focus stacking.

YMMV
