-It may confuse some people that there are a few EOS M cameras not handled by ML but CHDK. And there are PowerShot cameras not located in CHDK realm but ML. Those cameras run code contrary to their names!\\+It may confuse some people that there are a few EOS M cameras not handled by ML but CHDK.

 As a single imaging technique there are no motion artifacts, however a loss of resolution in the highlights and shadows, and [[#aliasing]] are the drawbacks. As a single imaging technique there are no motion artifacts, however a loss of resolution in the highlights and shadows, and [[#aliasing]] are the drawbacks.

 +==== Event Procedure ====

 +A function in the Canon firmware that can be called by string value. They can be executed with [[#canon_basic_scripting|Canon Basic scripts]], through [[#usb|PTP]], or through the //call// function in C. Internally, these are known as //evprocs//.

 Physically accessing UART in older cams required opening cam and maybe even soldering wires to camera's cirtuit board. Later cams have a UART connector on board for easier access. \\  Physically accessing UART in older cams required opening cam and maybe even soldering wires to camera's cirtuit board.

 On some of Canon's Digic 7, 8 and X cameras this UART is accessible without opening the camera by just removing a reusable rubber cover. On some of Canon's Digic 7, 8 and X cameras this UART is accessible without opening the camera by just removing a reusable rubber cover.
 +==== USB ====
 +Generally used for debugging. Information is transmitted over the Picture Transfer Protocol. Canon
 +has added several commands alongside the standard ones, such as the one that can be used to write the [[#bootflag]] (See https://github.com/petabyt/mlinstall)
