    Check your camera for the following. Remove the SD card and leave the dial on "P". Turn it on, and press "Menu". Go to the camera icon in the top left, and do:

    Digital zoom: off

    AF- point zoom: off

    Servo AF: off

    Af-assist beam: off

    MF-point zoom: off

    Safety MF: off

    Enter flash settings, turn all off

    Wind filter: off

    Review: off

    Blink detection: off

    Enter IS settings, turn all off.

    And then save the settings. In KAP UAV select "MF" in "Focus @ infinity". At least this has worked just fine for my Canon S100.

      Am I shooting in "auto" after all that? 

    • Eric Coronel > Jimmy Oliver March 31, 2015 at 8:46pm

      "Auto" in the dial near the shutter?

      Just the modes on top right. I'm beginning to think this camera is bunk. (bad lens)

      Updated S100 latest firmware now I have the famous "Lens error" - will not retract or function.

      You updated with a Canon firmware update?  From the official Canon web site?  (Don't forget that CHDK is not "firmware" and makes no permanent changes to the Canon firmware installed in your camera).

      As far as the famous E18 Lens Errror,  this is my favorite "how to" site for dealing with that :

      Sorry - don't know what happened there.   The permanent link (for whatever is the latest version of the script) is :  https://app.box.com/s/a5tbl1xasp8m3a57fclx

      Hmmm .. seems to be a limit on depth for replies to replies to replies?


      In any case,  3.4 has a couple of bug fixes for video interleave mode, improved logging that doesn't occasionally interfere with saving images by slowing things down, a slightly better GUI, pressing the shutter button takes an immediate image rather than halting the script,  all the "focus at infinity" options are now built-in and automatically detected (so the choice is now Yes or No), and of course the upgraded high precision pulse width measurements.

      I think that's it.
