Dear all,
My 70D is on ML alpha6(May31) version till now. Appears to be OK but trust you will excuse some of my layman-questions - as below:

1. While shooting still photos, the focus-peaking does not appear in the LCD monitor PRIOR to shooting (while the click button is semi-pressed) at all. I get it in the LCD monitor AFTER the shooting of still image only (during the 2-sec review period). What is the wrong I am doing?
2. When I start shooting video, it runs green for a second or two, but then it turns red - failing to turn green any further. The SD card that I have is LEXAR 16GB 633X (95MB/Sec), Is it not good enough for video-shooting?
3. Regarding raw video capabilities, is alpha5 version better than alpha6 version (as mentioned by someone in this thread above)? If so, I would like to uninstall the May31 version & install the older version. Where exactly is it available? Or else, should I try July13 version?
4. Regarding HELP (specifically for 70D ML). All I have viewed till now are some youtube videos (courtesy TKF Productions) only. Is there a single location in the web, mentioning what all is the latest applicable?

Appreciate your kind reply, thanks in advance  :) :) :)

Hello guys! Pls excuse me if I am too dumb or too impatient to read! Thanks to the precise instructions on the first page of this forum, installing this May 31 version of ML on my 70D was quick & easy - without any hassles. (Frankly, I have NOT gone through anywhere else in this forum. I am even ignorant whether ML interface is simply identical or different for each of the Canon camera model!) As mentioned here somewhere, all that I did till now is to turn on all modules in the 'modules' menu. Photo-snapping has been quick and easy too. But when I tried to shoot a sample video, it failed to record even though the memory card is quite fast (Lexar 600X). When I turned the camera switch to video mode and pressed the start button, I got indication that the camera is going through a preparation stage and then a green icon told me that the recording did continue. However, after switching off the video-recording & looking for the play-back, I noticed that the video has failed to exist on the memory card. What is that I am missing or doing wrong? Is there a specific location in this forum - where it is possible to read ML instructions step-by-step - as applicable to 70D alone? Thanks in advance!
