I haven't added it in v 5.0 but i'll add it in the version after it if you want.
v 5.0 is on it's way soon

@Witchking
this is very good news! I am eagerly awaiting v5.0 to test out.
Once concern i had previously with your CBE 4.1 driver, was that it was a little difficult to use due to so many different options.
Have you done anything to enhance the picture quality in AUTO mode? as I would be using AUTO for 90% of my shots.
thanks again witchking, its really great to have you here working on this driver for us.
I very much appreciate your efforts!!

Me too. I'm using DM3.8 and on day shots I tend to just use Colour Correction.
Nice to have a modder back.
@ jake20
Sorry. All Cool

no problem my friend it sounds like we both have similar needs when it comes to using the camera on the C905.
I guess my first choice is to have a GREAT AUTO mode, over a bunch of manual settings that I will never use.
Next, I think the most valuable manual controls to have (for me) would be..
1. Manual ISO
2. Manual Shutter Speed (for low light shots & create a nice flowing waterfall effect, etc..currently we cannot do this)
3. Manual Saturation
4. Manual focus
and Raiderski's selective color feature is absolutely amazing!
I would pay to have a cool feature like that in our C905 driver.
Maybe Witchking can ask Raiderski how he did it

Count me as the third who likes to take my shots in AUTO mode! So I really hope to have a good driver with a top notch AUTO mode settings. Sometimes when snapping shots, I cannot expect the object to be there waiting for me to set my camera in manual modes.
In terms of the manual controls that jake20 mentioned, I would rank mine to be:
1. Manual Shutter Speed
2. Manual ISO
3. Manual focus
4. Manual Saturation (if fact I'm fine without this)
Looking forward to test your (witchking) 5.0 as I've never even tried your driver before!

my dream is fulfilled with forced flash....
it's so useful against bright backgrounds...ie sunset.....beech scene....when you want a person in it and you want catch the scene behind |

Instead of forced flash use light metering spot method from the camera menu.

none driver c905 have forced flash schema rer or iso manual? DM donīt have forced flash?
about shutter speed have we said a thousand times here, change the register constant shutter speed to real shutter speed and have manual shutter speed.Copied the schema of color correction and flash rer among others things isnīt.Then to do the same schema with the manual shutter and stop torturing guys.You are modders have to know at least ride a decent schema.

The Auto mode will hopefully satisfy you..
As for the image compression settings, I think that a buffer around MAXIMUM of 3 MBs is sufficient for pictures with 8 MP resolution.. Because above this level, there is no significant change in quality with higher image sizes.
Moreover, higher size than that renders the camera unstable, and also drains the memory very fast.
I've chosen a 3 MB Buffer for 8 MP pictures.
I hope it's okay for you. |

does'nt really work...the subject will benefit but the background won't come out well
where as with flash on as an option the background can be focused on....and a person infront of background will be lit up with flash...[or using on dark skinned people] |

If I got this right Forced Flash will make the background bright enough and you use the flash for the people in front of the background to lit them up, right?

Sounds logical to why you chose 3MB. Let's see how it turns out when you release the driver. Any estimated release date?

well the flash wont do anything for the background.....but everthing close enough in foreground will be lit up..and at same time the background will be a good picture
very nice effect....since let's say eiffel tower is focused on.....people in foreground will not be so good[unless sun bright]..with flash on people in foreground will be good |

I think it would be cool to also have the choice between xenon flash or led light.
would that be possible?
