Re: Canon 6D -- Love the RAW histogram
« Reply #475 on: January 05, 2017, 09:51:34 PM »

Why does Canon (and, apparently, all other manufacturers) set different grey point EV between jpgs and RAW ? It's been so frustrating, until I finally started paying attention to ML. Thank you ML !

While, the RAW histogram is available in LV mode, it's not always the perfect solution (for instance, using flash where the EV is checked after the capture). Having the RAW histogram in the image review is beautiful. I'm nailing moments that would have been more of a challenge. W/o accurate EV, I'm dependent on the jpg histogram, which is about +1.5 EV over the RAW on my 6D.

Just saying thank you.

the EOScard website (which you'll need for making your SD cards bootable) has firmware for many different Canon cameras way at the bottom of the page

so i finally joined the modern age and update my 6D from firmware 1.1.3 to 1.1.6 8)  Everything went smoothly, and I'm looking forward to using the most up to date ML!

Thanks to the devs for all you do!

Re: Canon 6D - No Live Histogram in LV
« Reply #485 on: January 22, 2017, 05:55:16 PM »
Hi All,

I've been using ML in my 60D for many years, no problem what so ever, to me the Live Histogram in video shooting is a valuable tool that I used most. Just got a new 6D body and trying to set up ML with live histogram in LV, but it never show up, other functions work fine. I tried diff. nightly builds, but no help. What do I miss? Since I have the setup similar to my 60D, and it works fine in 60D body with all builds. Please can some body help?

H.264 or RAW/MLV? MLV surpresses Global Draw functions by default.
For H.264 toggle screen by pressing INFO button in Liveview until ML overlays are visible.

Aha! Thank you Walter. The 'Info' button to switch between display overlay modes did the trick. How could I missed that. Thanks again.

@schedonnardus
You don't need to make your SD card bootable via your PC. I just went through this issue for a second SD card for my camera and all you need to do is extract the nightly (or whatever build of ML you want) to the SD card and run the cameras firmware upgrade. The ML install will make the SD card bootable for you.

Time for blinking the warning messages in menu? The issue is very common, so maybe there's something wrong with ML UI.

Maybe only when user enables a setting which is grayed out?

good to know. Still the eoscard website has all the old firmware. since canon's website only has 1.1.7 on it now, ppl will need access to 1.1.6. I installed 1.1.6 from there and it worked fine.

The Canon 6D version 1.1.6 firmware is also available from my website here https://thatphotowebsite.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/files/eos6d-v116-win.zip. If I recall correctly I downloaded this from Canon Canada before they took it down. Hope this helps people.

been using 1.1.3 with some nightly build from may 2014 and im quite happy with it except for the dissapearing ML when idle more than 1-2 seconds :D

I need advice, would you upgrade to the new firmware and new ML as I'm quite satisfied with my camera? is there any list of changes that came with the new version of ML for 1.1.6 FW?

Hey,

I have successfully installed and using ML on my 6D, however there is a glitch every few seconds whilst in the ML menu, it glitches between the ML menu and live view and a couple of Canon menus, without me doing anything.

Anyone know what is causing this and how to fix it?

Thank you

This is normal when ur live view is on this happens. To fix it simply turn off live view before entering ML menu

Does your latest magic firmware update support an EOS Rebel T6i Camera? I am seeking a solution to monitor my audio. I am using a wireless mic and there does not seem to be a way to monitor the audio while using headphones. Any suggestions would be welcomed.
