I would like to change the settings of the Canon DSLR Camera from HD to 4K and vice-versa programmatically. I used gphoto2, libghoto2 to control the settings and capture photo and video. (I have physically switched the nob to Video mode on camera)
Camera Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV.
Camera settings on Camera look like below:
Movie Record Quality
- MOV/MP4
- Movie rec. size (MP4)
-- FHD 50.00P IPB
-- FHD 25.00P IPB
-- FHD 25.00P IPB (Light)
- Movie rec. size (MOV)
-- 4K 25.00P MJPG
-- FHD 50.00P ALL-I
-- FHD 50.00P IPB
-- FHD 25.00P ALL-I
-- FHD 25.00P IPB
The gphoto2 --list-all-config does not list these settings. Is there a way I can switch these using a script.
gphoto2 --summary
