Variable Framerate hack + Treo

[Segarza]

Hi guys!

Bumped into the Variable Frame Rate hack post, which is great!

Started fooling around with the settings, shot a couple of busy streets at night with 2fps 350d shutter, which look awesome. But then I wanted to tweak the settings in the field...but I wasn't carrying my laptop. So I went back to the office downloaded a text free editor for my Treo 650 (benroe.com/sied/). Now I can tweak the settings for the VFR hack in the field with my PDA!

Very handy!
This should work on most PDAs which have SD card slots too.

Is it possible to access the scene file information while the SD card is in the camera? Powered on? Recording?

Prolly not, huh?

- Mikko ... still looking for ramping.

Nope, you use the SD slot in your PDA to access the info. Open the text file using a text editor, modify settings, save back to the SD card, and read the scene info off the card.
