Problems with bracketing function and Canon 5D

[Michael Mueller]

I have some problems using your DSLR Remote Pro with our Canon 5D. I want to take bracketed images (series of 9 or 11 or more). Now it seems , that DSLR Remote Pro never takes the shortest exposure times (1/8000 s). For example I set everything like this:

Manual exposure Mode (M)
Tv=1/30s
Av=6.3

Shutter Release: AF
AE lock button: AE lock

Number of shots in sequence: 13
Stops separatingeach shot: 2 stop

With Release I get 8 images starting from 8 seconds down to 1/2000 second. I tried many things, but I got never exposure times faster than 1/2000s with your bracketing option. What I'm doing wrong?

Sorry there appears to be a bug in selecting the highest available shutter speed when auto-bracketing. I will fix this in the next release.

In the meantime you could set the shutter speed to 1/25. A 9 shot sequence at 2-stop spacing starting at 1/25 will run from 10" to 1/6400.
