Many of the Canon ideas on Zooming use a language that is also used by others in this engineering space: http://focus.ti.com/lit/ug/sprufg8b/sprufg8b.pdf [broken link]


[2010_09_20] --> Remidner to AJ. Update the 16 sub routines for x1 x5 x10 with their new names / add comment as to what they do.

.

5 Zoom modes. Two rec modes, Three non-record modes.[]

.

  • In LiveView Non-record mode - it is possible to magnify x1, x5, and x10.These correspond to LiveViewMgr[0xC0] =0 , 1, and 2 respectively.
  • In LiveView Record mode - there are two modes that are both x1 magniifiction.
    These correspond to LiveViewMgr[0x948] =0 or 1, respectively.
  • The firmware uses these to decide which of the 5 banks of 16 subroutines to call to setup the DIGIC.


Where is the list of 16 DIGIC setup subs selected?[]

  • AJ_ChangeVDInterrupt() - Note: This routine also mentions Setting up interrupts for Recording


Both of the above routines are called as part of the LiveView State machine (called "LVstate")


Both of these (currently) seem to refer to all 5 Zoom mode lists of 16subs wth a switch:

LiveView Non-record -> get 16 subroutines in AJ_GetLiveViewPassInfo_Zoom()

LiveView Record -> get 16 subroutines in AJ_GetRecMoviePassInfo_RecModeD()


LiveViewMgr_Struct[]

aAJ_0x1D78_LiveViewMgr_struct_ptr points to aAJ_LiveViewMgr_struct (size = 0x29D8)


[0xC0]

NON-RECORD Magnification

LVmagSubBank

0 = x1 bank of 16 subs to call

1 = x5 bank of 16 subs to call

2 = x10 bank of 16 subs to call

Ref: AJ_LiveView_main(), AJ_ChangeVDInterrupt()

Nb: These subs write the addr of the 16 engio structs to [0xCD0]
Also see AJ_sub40_LiveView_main() [part of AJ_LiveView_main() ]

[0x948]

RECORD

RecMovSubBank

0 = bank of 16 subs to call

1 = another bank of 16 subs to call


Both of these are x1 magnification

AJ_GetRecMoviePassInfo_RecModeD()

uses this to select banks of 16 subs at

aAJ_0xFFC7A444_sublist_RecMoviePassInfo_related

[0xCD0] adr_16_subs = Address of 16 engio_write_subs to call
depending on Zoom level
cf [0xC0]


How does the firmware call AJ_LiveView_main() and AJ_ChangeVDInterrupt()?

How is AJ_LiveView_main() called?[]

There is a Huge list used as part of the LiveView state machine - called "LVState".

  • This state machine directy calls AJ_LiveView_main()
  • Also, the state machine calls a small routine AJ_LiveView_StartInSuspend() which then calls AJ_LiveView_main()


More deatils on where the "LVState" State machine is created:

  • AJ_LiveView_Initialise() ---> AJ_CreateStateObject_LiveView() ---> Huge state machine created using following struct:
ROM:FFC79630 aAJ_0xFFC79630_LV_VarSubList   DCD #1           
ROM:FFC79634                                DCD AJ_LiveView_main()

ROM:FFC79638                                DCD #1
ROM:FFC7963C                                DCD AJ_LDR_R0_aAJ_0x44FC_LiveView_struct_0x2C()
............
ROM:FFC79690                                DCD #13
ROM:FFC79694                                DCD AJ_LiveView_StartInSuspend()
............
ROM:FFC79768                                DCD #4
ROM:FFC7976C                                DCD AJ_ChangeVDInterrupt()
...... 
And several hundred more pairs of Value, Sub() used in the "LVState" state machine.

How is AJ_ChangeVDInterrupt() called?[]

  • Look at the "LVState" state machine above .. it simply a different state in the LiveView State machine.
