Problem with EOS600D

[Andreas]

Hi,

 

I downloaded a trial version of BackyardEOS. Unfortunately, I am not able to shoot a single photo. Connection to the camera works as well as live view and focus. Whenever I start an imaging session I just get the message "imaging session cancelled" without any hint what`s wrong. The camera is connected to my notebook (Windows XP) via USB cable, EOS utilities work. I wanted to use BackyardEOS for dithering with PHD.

What is the problem, what am I doing wrong??? Anybody else using a 600D?

 

Regards

Hello Andrea... and welcome!

 

The 600D is fully supported so we should be able to resolve your issue.

 

Do you have the camera dial set to 'M'?

Yes, dial set to M. I also tried different other settings as well as mirror lock enabled and disabled - samd issue.

Okay <_>

 

Send me the log files at backyardeos@binaryrivers.com.  I should be able to get more information on what is causing this with your 600D.

 

The log files are located in "My Pictures\BackyardTEMP\logs".

 

Thank you

It (n)ever works when somebody is watching: I just tried it again and it worked.

I promise you that I tried it several times today, without success. Do you have access to my notebook via Backyard EOS?? ;-)

Anyway, I will send the log files of this afternoon to you.

LOL, it's the aliens again.  I told them to say away but they never listen

 

Glad you are up and running.
