600ex-rt Radio Trigger for 5D MKII

[DSutherland]

I have two 600ex-rt's & a 5D Mark II. I noticed that for 2012 cameras that you can remote trigger your shutter using the "rel" button in menu 2 on your slave 600ex-rt if you have a master on-camera but I cannot do that on my 5D MKII because it is not supported in the firmware. I was wondering if this feature could be added through Magic Lantern? It would save me a couple of thousand dollars and would be a very valuable feature.

Here's a video of it in action with the 5DMKIII....

Actually I didn't even realize that was an option until doing some more digging in various forums. Straight away I went and ordered the cable, problem solved.
