Sorry for the dumb questions but I still have some:
- Do I install ML on an SD card and put the extra fast CF card in the second slot? Or do I forget about the SD slot and everything goes in the CF?
- Is the uninstallable bootflag modification still present in both 1.1.3 and 1.2.3? Or is it possible to completely and cleanly uninstall ML in both firmwares?
I'm mainly trying to decide whether to go with 1.1.3 or 1.2.3. I won't need the official Canon things in 1.2.3 but there's some extra info in the 1.2.3 thread that isn't present here and I just want to make sure the 1.1.3 also have these options (clean uninstall, optional EosCard, ML restores itself after format etc).
You can either split the process like so
. Put ML on SD card and use the CF card for recording files (this is highly recommended and easy to set up in the ML menu).
or
. If your SD card is fast enough with enough space you can put both the ML and set to record files on the SD as well. (not recommended. Only if you have no CF option and only have SD card)
*Yes its possible to completely and cleanly uninstall ML in both firmwares. Whether you are on 113 or 123, when you enter in canon menu to update firmware(while firmware card is in the camera) Install ML and when it installs and says "done", At that point it will start to count down. IF you want to uninstall let it count down all the way and that will uninstall it. THAT'S IT.
currently there are some issues with the 113 with pink frames and whatnot, but this wasn't always the case its only been happening in the most recent builds(have not tested the June build yet)
123 is steady but lacks some options so it depends on what you are doing.
I have formatted my CF card in exFAT and I'm using 1.1.3 again, everything is good for me so far.
