Can we get folks to post in this thread in the feedback forum so we can try and get an IR forum created?

I just posted the following on that forum

I have several Magic Lantern M cameras converted to IR and Full spectrum, and just treated myself to an M10 conversion at 720nm.

The advantage of the M10 is that it runs CHDK, so I’m able to use my focus and exposure bracketing script, eg https://photography.grayheron.net/2022/06/landscape-bracketing-script-update.html

Here’s a test, single image I took the other day and colour processed, rather than doing a B&W version.

Nice image... I like the mood.

I've read a lot about Magic Lantern but never tried it. Canon started implementing some of the extra features it provided in the later M cameras like the M200, M50ii, and M6ii, and I haven't been tempted to dabble further.

Larry, Magic Lantern only runs on the M, on my M3 and M10 I use CHDK.

As both ML and CHDK give you real math Lua scripting, you can do all the things Canon doesn’t let you

Things like auto ETTR at the push of a button. Complex focus and exposure bracketing, at the push of a button. Focus feedback, eg for infinity focus.  BTW my script includes the option of convolving optical blur with vis or IR diffraction.

Fun stuff
