I did some mini tests comparing Genus 6.0 [06 Sharpness], ModMix 1.42, number1 2.95 and Ultimate 2.0 in document mode.
I found out that modmix, number1 and genus' driver can focus nearer object in document mode. But with ultimate 2.0, I can focus nearer. I'll upload the 4 pics later...comparing the minimum distance to get proper focus.

increasing contrast, also by default increases the exposure, causing over exposure.
So,what we can do to increase default contrast without increasing of default exposure or haw we can decrease default exposure and what are recommended values...?
Can we set something like:
#COM_EVENT(55,02)
#COM_EVENT(06,FE)
or
#COM_EVENT(06,FF)....?

just turn the auto whitebalance off, like in the k770 change
seq_set_prop_1_0 = #COM_EVENT(11,00);
change to
seq_set_prop_1_0 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
80 means off it works for sharpness contrast etc,
..or if I`ll make this:
seq_set_prop_1_0 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
seq_set_prop_1_1 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
seq_set_prop_1_2 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
seq_set_prop_1_3 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
seq_set_prop_1_4 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
seq_set_prop_1_5 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
seq_set_prop_1_6 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
seq_set_prop_1_7 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
seq_set_prop_1_8 = #COM_EVENT(11,80);
....?

What were the lighting conditions for these pictures? IMO the minimum focus distance is the same because its a hardware feature not a software one. |

In Number1 driver (copied by you and genus) the fps shutter are decreased in low light condition. As the max time for autofocus remain the same, algorithm isn't able to set focus so near because objetive can't move the necessary distance before autofocus time is over. As far as I know it's the only logical explanation.

I know,but do it need any colour correction...?
I mean,without WB colours will are real default...
Did you try it? I did and pics are good....
And can you tell me how I can decrease default exposure?

Digital whitebalance is used in digital cameras for correction of colours when there's so much blue, or red, and so on (based on colour temperature). Disable the Auto WB if you don't like how works the K800's one, but you'll have to set manually the WB at tungsten light, or at snowy bluish light, etc if you want good pics. And WB presets are not really a kind of manual WB... |

O.K.
I forgot about snow and other scenes.... 
Thank you!
But in auto mode I think it is possible to turn off...

Yes goldmen it's possible, but what's the point? This is how auto WB works: if too much amount of a single colour a filter is applied (for example filter for low frequencies if red, filter for high frequencies if blue), if not, no filter's applied. But you could ask: What if I want to catch a real reddish moment? You can use the Fluorescent preset and it won't filter the red colour. |

the distance of the shot taken by ULTIMATE driver was i think nearer than the other 3.
heres wot i did.
camdrivers involved are: Modmix 1.42 / Ultimate V2 with Vivid Colors / Number1 2.95 / Genus 6.0
Document mode with flash on. all settings are auto:
Genus 6.0:
direct: HERE
ULTIMATE V2 with Vivid:
direct: HERE
Modmix 1.42:
direct: HERE
Number1 2.95:
direct: HERE
so there it is.... we can see Genus 6.0 & Number1 2.95 is close results with the latter being much sharper...
ciao!

When comparing Doc modes is VERY important to shot exactly same pics (same distance). These are all different, but your work is appreciated! |

I find myself of using DOC mode more and more for.....normal indoor pics.
I think it's the combination of sharpness / low ISO that I missuse DOC mode
for pictures its not made for per definition.
But I really found that small distances (1-3m) in low light, that look blurry, noisy and unsharp in Normal/Nightportrait suddenly look crisp and clear with DOC mode - of course flash is used......
And DOC mode is almost driver independend as all of the above offer
very good DOC modes !

Could the modders please check following code: (thx to Kriomag for idea !)
//************************************************
// Exposure property 0 *****
//************************************************
// 3 => -2 EV, 9 => -(0) EV .... f => 2 EV
//---------------------------------------------------
seq_set_prop_0 = $p1 08 // put Effects-Property into Reg1
$c1 04 // Is Black-White Effect selected then
#COM_EVENT(55,$w5) // Set Contrast with Stick
$cl
$c1 02 // Is Solarize Effect selected then
#COM_EVENT(58,$w5) // Set Colorgain with Stick
$cl
$c1 01 // Is Negative Effect selected then
#COM_EVENT(56,$w5) // Set Sharpening with Stick
$cl // IF other Effect or Normal do normal EV operation
$s5 %0
$-5 09
#COM_EVENT(06,$w5)
$cx
$cx
$cx;
Can't test it myself now.
To check:
*) Is if the Sharpening/Colorgain/Contrast property is saved after changing Effect back to normal ?
*) Maybe $w5 isn't always calculated accordingly to the usual range of the property.
But if it IS saved, then we can set the desired settings before choosing the scene.
The propertys are just an example, it should (maybe) work with ISO and
FOCUS ....hopefully !
