I have improved the Focus Wobble script for my Canon A640. Thanks to PhyrePhox over on the CHDK forum<\/a>, I can actually pull random numbers based on the system clock (at least I think that’s where they are from..).<\/p>\n

Here is the new and improved script:<\/p>\n

\n@title Focus Wobble
\n@param a Focus wobble +\/- (mm)
\n@default a 50
\n@param b # of frames
\n@default b 48
\na=a*2<\/p>\n

get_focus f
\nprint “Current focus “,f,”mm”
\nsleep 2000
\ng=f
\nfor s = 1 to b
\n random z
\n x=z%(a)
\n g=f-(a\/2)+x
\n if g<0 then let g=0\n set_focus g\n print \"Shot \",s,\" focus \",g,\"mm\"\n shoot\nnext s\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I tested it out today. The wobble was set at +\/- 50mm which is pretty drastic at such close range. I might also modify it to hold in a certain random zone for a few frames so it is less jarring. Maybe I’ll have it slide around a certain value for a while. <\/p>\n

Or maybe I’ll just keep it as is!<\/p>\n

I’ve also started working a script I’m calling “Time Bandit” that allows you to shoot time lapse based on how long the event is, how long your final movie will be, and your frame rate.<\/p>\n
