hmm, hard times for canon users. pick the total overkill tool, or just the grandmaster of the universe ? decisions, decisions. meanwhile, things seem considerably easier for other brands: tweak a few video parameters, drop a couple of restrictions.

and for nikon the hackers just started it seems

yeah. especially chdk has been around forever. most things are not that useful, but a few are. e.g., viewfinder improvements.

not that I'd already expect a DL24 firmware - actually I checked and I'm surprised that Saturn already offers them DL24-500, though that could be fake as well
<DocScrutinizer05>
ooh, motion detection, even scripting
* DocScrutinizer05
drools over those features
<DocScrutinizer05>
while for DL24 it's unclear if you could attach a remote trigger button
<DocScrutinizer05>
Nikon android app must be the damn worst app I ever heard of, according to customer rating
<DocScrutinizer05>
the few 5star ratings are clearly by accident
<DocScrutinizer05>
I'm still torn apart between Canon awesome FOSS firmware hacks and Nikon DL24 entire UX (minus the hackability and lack of obvious remote control features)
<DocScrutinizer05>
alas a Canon for same pricetag like DL24, with same (assumed) macro capabilities would be a 5DMk1 with only 12 Mpx and a primary lens with ~150mm
<DocScrutinizer05>
I forgot to add: used
<DocScrutinizer05>
and still, I don't know if that might be the smarter choice
