Tobias -- I'm impressed! Thanks a lot! I built dt from git and focussing works now from within darktable!
I've another question: would it be possible to disable the camera's AF temporarily from dt for a single shot w/o touching the lens AF switch? Background: I use dt for digitizing old slides with a macro lens. For many cases AF works perfectly but sometimes it fails, especially if the slide has low structure. If AF fails, dt switches to light room with a message "connection to camera lost". In this case it would be helpful if I could temporarily disable AF from dt, focus manually (again from dt) and make a shot. best regards, -- Johannes Am 09.12.2015 um 13:32 schrieb Tobias Ellinghaus: > Am Dienstag, 8.
