Hi!

Is there a way to download the (old) ML firmware for the EOS 300D?

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

AFAIK ML was never ported to 300D.

I have an old 300D. It will not run ML and the only extra functions come from the UnDutchables hack which re-writes Canon owned code.

ML does not do that and is very careful to respect Canon's right. Unlike ML I don't think it offers much in terms of increased functionality. I think you might be able to get ISO 3200 and it allows you some control over the brightness of the flash. From what I remember the 3200 was so noisy it was hardly worth the trouble. My advice would be to upgrade your camera to something that will run ML.

Thanks a bunch.

I thought there would have been a version of ML for the 300D.

BTW, I do have several newer cams (e.g. the Fuji X-E1 and X-T1), but I hoped for an injection of fresh blood for my old 300D which I use with manual lenses. ;)

I have used ML on my 5D before I sold the Canon - and I really liked ML.
