"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."


thanks for this link.
Do you know wher i can find this firware 1.1.6 for mac? Because there is only 1.1.7 on Canon website...

Thanks

Unzip it and "Firmware 1.1.6 for mac" is there (there is no Firmware for macOS, cams don't run macOS or Windows). You can use file linked in Download section as well (pel.hu).

Thank you!
I try this.

a question I wanted to ask a long time ago.
this is about shooting fps override timelapse in video mode, for low light situation.
I bought a 6D last year and installed ML and it works fine... except for the one specific feature I wanted it .
let me explain: before , I had the 600D, and in video mode the 'fps override' in 'low light' selection works great, so I could shoot e.g. at ISO 1600 some  timelapses at night e.g. of the northern lights . Using a fast lens it works really good. But ISO 1600 is sort of the limit... beyond that there's too much noise...
if I choose ISO 800 on the 600D the video has even less noise but the shutterspeeds must be longer.
  Now, since the 6D has better low-light capability, I was hoping I could use the same feature, in video mode, fps override, 'low light' setting, e.g. at ISO 2500 or 3200 ... but no, it results in horrible noisy mesh... even at ISO 1600...  the 'low-light' setting ( long exposures of each frame in fps override ) is a mess on my 6D .

any idea what I would need to change in settings ?

Never used FPS override in video mode for timelapses on the 6d, so could be that it doesn't work that well  :-\
But why not using silent picture module in combination with intervalometer ?

Works perfect, you can even use full resolution silent pictures (so 20 megapixel frames :) ).
Only thing with full resolution silent pictures is, that the camera needs to write them off to the SD card so you need too have at least 3 to 5 seconds time interval between pictures.

I use it for timelapses of the night sky.

Full resolution silent pictures
15 seconds exposure
5 seconds between pictures

Probably a lot of you already heard the news, but there are some very interesting things going on for raw video.
14 bit compressed(lossless) raw  :)
And now it even works with lower bit depths  :D (unfortunately that is on the 5dIII only,  :'( )
http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=19300.msg183231#msg183231

This could help for longer raw video recording times, or continuous recording on high resolutions.
For instance, max resolution (full frame, no digital zoom) on the 6d is 1824 x 1026.
With 12 bit compressed raw that would give about continuous recording times.
Or about one minute recording time in 11 bit 2400 x 960 resolution in zoom mode.

Does anyone here has the knowledge or the knowhow how to port this to the 6d ?

And some info about development for it on the 5dIII:
http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=19300.0

On the 5dIII there is some improved crop recording mode for achieving the higher resolutions for 4K, this newer crop recording isn't yet developed for the 6d, but for as far as I know, the compressed raw part can be used separate from the crop recording mode.

Some more guiding:

When is ML for firmware 1.1.7 available?

best regards

@mcinternet

ML for the 6d is, for now, only available for firmware 1.1.6
If you have a 6d with firmware 1.1.7 and want to make use of ML, you have to downgrade the firmware to 1.1.6

If you look a few pages back in this topic, you will see some other 6d users who did the same.
The 6d 1.1.6 isn't available on the official Canon websites anymore, but a few pages back in this topic there are some people who have a download link to it.

Walter Schulz

Semi-official download site is linked in 6D nightly build download page.

Hi Guys

I hope this is the right place to post, I have a Canon 6D running 1.1.6 on the latest build of ML, however I have never seen the bit rate adjustment setting on my 6D in the video settings of ML. any ideas why not?

I say this because I have that option in my 100D.

Thanks

100D really profits as it doesn't have ALL-I option to chose from. It's simply not available with original firmware.
For 6D I don't think it would make much of a difference due to the ALL-I option being available. You can ofc compile from source and just enable it but please also read this:

The 6d has the all-I option in canon video menu.
H.264 in all-I format is the best possible option for H.264, it doesn't get any better then all-I

The same is done with sound recording, Canon menu on the 6d offers full manual audio control.
So no extra audio options in ML menu.

No idea of how to port this, but if needed I will be glad to help with testing.

On the 6D, being able to get a RAW histogram is essential (the gap between YUV and RAW is about 1.5).

On my 550d, with ML, I can get a RAW histogram in the review mode as I cycle through images. All I do is select the Q and up pops the RAW histogram.

On my 6D, with ML, the RAW histogram only shows up in the immediate delay after capturing an image.

I've (1) skimmed through numerous forums and (2) tried lots of different ML configurations, but the 6D doesn't expose the RAW histogram after I've gone on to capture another image and then look back at older ones.

Am I missing a subtle configuration requirement ?

Thanks

So i just installed ML on my 6D, the problem is when im within the interface it keeps flickering. There seems to be another menu that keeps flickering in and out. It's a bit troubling or is it normal? please let me know.

I'm pretty sure you can't.

The shortcut key for overlays should be listed in the Help menu. Whether that key actually works or not, I don't know.

I ve installed the latest version of ML on my 6D DSlR , and the only reason I did is for audio monitoring it's not that I don't like the other features unfortunately the option is not available or am I missing something

Thanks

hi,

I'm using magic lantern for the first time , but the video I got is very small , it's like I have two times letter box  how can I fix thsi issue

Thanks

If you're looking for help you have to give some information for those willing to help.
Be accurate, please.
What are your setting, what have you done? = How to reproduce?

Not sure as to the rules of the forum, but most people here probably won't be able to help you in French. As to the image you posted: I don't see any black borders, where are you seeing this? Also, as far as I know you should not use both Raw and MLV, choose only one. BTW :the resolution you posted is low and is also not 16:9.
