    UPDATE: 7D Firmware Update

    April 20, 2011 by Patrick


    Canon released the latest update for the Canon EOS 7D yesterday. Not really a major update, it fixes a few bugs. 5D MarkII Team had a nice run down of all the changes:

    Changes in this firmware:

    Firmware Version 1.2.5 incorporates the following improvements and fixes.

    1. Fixed a rare phenomenon in which there were rare cases where movie files taken could not be opened when repeatedly shooting movies with specific CF cards.

    2. Fixed a rare phenomenon in which there were cases where “Err 02″ appeared when repeatedly shooting still images with specific CF cards.

    3. Fixed a phenomenon that occurred when using high-capacity (32 GB or greater) CF cards: If either a CF card with only a little available space remaining or the battery was removed and then reinserted into the camera, and then the user attempted to start shooting movies immediately, shooting would stop.

    4. Improved the writing/reading speeds when using UDMA 7-compatible CF cards.

    5. Fixed a phenomenon that occurred when custom function C.Fn 4-1 was set to assign IS start to the AF stop button on the lens: When used with lenses that do not have an AF stop button, the IS function would not work.

    6. Corrected some mistakes in the menu screens displayed in Arabic and Portuguese. (This applies to models in overseas markets. The models for the Japanese market do not display those languages.)

    The Version 1.2.5 firmware being released this time is for cameras with firmware up to Version 1.2.4. If the camera’s firmware is already Version 1.2.5, it is not necessary to update the firmware. Note that cameras with the Version 1.2.5 firmware (and also Versions 1.2.0 through 1.2.4) cannot be downgraded to a previous firmware version (such as Version 1.1.0 or earlier).

    UPDATE
    The update is now available for download here. I’m not quite sure why it was taken down in the first place, but you can assume there was most likely a bug involved.

    Right now the update is available over at Canon UKI’ve received news that the upload is currently down, hopefully it will be back soon. Thanks to 5D Mark II Team for the heads up.

    Chinese New Year Captured By DSLRs

    February 4, 2011 by Patrick

    2011: The Year of the Rabbit from Jonah Kessel on Vimeo.


    DLSR News Shooter posted a beautiful video from Chinese New Year in Beijing. Using a Canon 7D and a 5D mark II, Jonah Kessel and friends captured the amazing holiday firework displays from the small firecrackers to the monstrous palm explosions around town.

    I really dig how they used the bokeh effect for the fireworks. It gives such a strange and compelling image. Really cool use of light and darkness.
