I use 32GB cards for my 5D2 and 7D updates, and an 8GB card in my 1D3. Never had a problem.

Those bodies are the newer pro bodies. I've had people with older bodies and some Rebel bodies, that won't let you update firmware unless you use something with a smaller card.

Thanks, lowrider. Doesn't sound like there's anything for me in the update, but I will do it anyway. There's no telling what "hidden" updates might be included.

Hope they fixed that "phantom busy" issue that seems to randomly happen on the 7D. :D

We want the features these cameras can offer (5D Mark II and 7D),
because Canon CAN do that:

IMAGE LINK: http://5dmark2.wordpre​ss.com …7d-firmware-update-1-2-3/  (external link)

Disabling AGC is a kids game, even some P&S pocket cameras have Manual Audio control...

There is a BIG incoherence and inconsistence between Canon EOS DSLR camera models.

At this point Canon should fix AGC on 7D, but also some other things on the 5D Mark II (and 7D).

Check the above link for a brief list of features that can be implemented via Firmware Update.

any risk of frying your camera updating the firmware?


I'm looking for harsh criticism of my photos - tell me how to improve, I will be grateful.

Sure, there's a risk. But it is small. Just read all the instructions first before doing it.

Like Tgara said there is a small risk, but there is a risk with any thing you do in life, but if you follow Canons directions you should have no problem. Make sure you have a fresh battery, check to see the file size you downloaded matches what Canon says on there website (9.16mb for ver. 1.0.9) and do not touch the camera once you start the upload and you should be fine.

I think the warning to make sure you have fully charged batteries is a bit silly. I updated my 7D yesterday with my grip on and 2 batteries at 67%. When it was done updating they were both reading 66%. Not much energy used. BTW, I notice no difference in the way my 7D works.

When a new camera is purchased does it come with the post recent firmware updates or does that need to be done upon opening?
