Hi Herr hausen,
Thanks for the answer, if I activate the liveview as you describe I can't do long exposures which I need when doing focus. If I activate liveview with the button on the camera I can do longexposures ( 5 seconds). But Indi driver crash then after a while.

But even better if I don't have to set the camera in liveview mode. But the Canon focus motor only rotate when in livemode. Maybe there are other settings to do focus without livemode that I have done incorrect ?

The liveview heat the camera and takes a lot of power, one big reason to not use liveview.

But how to control the focus motor that is built in the Canon lens without have the camera in livemode? Is it possible, or?
