Hi Entaglers, this is my first post to the dev list, but almost certainly not my last.
I'm a freelance filmmaker with a Canon t4i DSLR, and I've been tinkering with entagle for a year or so. I really like it in concept, and as I'm a dyed-in-the-wool linux user, it's really my only option, to see what I'm shooting on my linux laptop. However, I had a gig last week, and tried to use entangle in a "production environment, and it failed me in a big way. The first issue is that I can not Preview with the camera "rolling", so it's not usable for the Director to watch while I shoot. The second big issue is that the Preview is of the camera (raw?) image, and it looks great as a still, but really misrepresents what I'm going to get on the video. Not only shows the wrong resolution (hiding niose, moire, etc. but the color representation is WAY off! (thank goodness for color-correction) I can deal with the low refresh/ frame-rate, understanding the limits of the USB connection, but I would be really really happy to use entangle for professional video, eventually.. Any chance of support for us movie-makers?? thanks, djp PS, is there is another/ better gphoto2 alternative, please let me in on it.
