@Hazer: good idea.

On more or less the same topic. it would be great to be able to configure the "Rec key" setting so that raw recording can be triggered through "Halfshutter" (and wired remote), as well!

On my 5d2: when I run it at 1280x1080 it seems that the recording area (white rectangle) is not at the center position when an external monitor is attached via HDMI. Might just be a display problem...

For me the ability to customize the actual shooting resolution is the coolest feature of all... just did some quick tests with a 2x anamorphic lens at 1280x1080. Ok, already almost forgot the fact that this thing records in raw, of course (which is like 10x christmas condensed into a single day!)

rs555 ... Here's the step-by-step sequence of how I did it. Not sure it's the best way, but it does seem to be the easiest way: http://5dfilmmaking.com/?p=62

Thanks! I just figured it out... 

Sorry to keep asking dumb newbie questions... but I can't get ML to work on my MK2.

The firmware is 2.1.2, and I used "macboot" (OSX 10.6.8 ) to create a bootable CF using option "Make DSLR-bootable". It says that I successfully created one...

Then I have downloaded the above .zip file, decompressed it and copied the contents ("AUTOEXEC.BIN" & "ML/" folder) to the root dir of my CF (folder where "DCIM/" & "MISC/" are located). When I insert the CF into my camera, and go to the firmware upgrade menu it says: "Memory card containing firmware is required".

I noticed that in these zip files (I tried a few from this thread) a "xxxxx.fir" file is missing?! E.g. in the 5d3 versions of ML there seem to be "xxx.fir" files...  could that be the problem?!

Thanks a lot for your help!

For 5D MkII use the latest firmware 2.1.2. See also http://www.magiclantern.fm/download

Brilliant - thanks for the quick reply!

Hey guys,

this might be a stupid question, but which CANON firmware should I use on my MKII for this miraculous version of ML?

Thanks for your help!
