Crop mood - WYSIWYG Edition (650D / 700D / EOS M / 100D)

If this update is not making every Magic Lantern user that can afford it to contribute, I don't know what will! 

Maybe I failed with making them excited
No pressure on anyone though!

[theBilalFakhouri]

Just donated even if I'm not an Eos M user anymore, I sincerely admire your work, Bilal! and I also hope you'll futher develop ML for 5d3

Thank you! I appreciate all the support. Definitely getting something working on 5D3 will me make more excited

I will need to know which the other option is valid for the donor so I can check (with ilia3101) the possibility if we can accpet it.
Cryptocurrency is valid option for me too if the donor used it before.

Who pressed the brake? Step on the gas!

On Facebook and Youtube it looks like Magic Lantern is still a thing, many people talks about it, but it's sad to see how the actual interest is lower than it seems 
I hope this project keeps on going for many years, driven by money or self-challenge, it doesn't matter.
Custom firmwares extending hardware functionality over the original purpose is more or less common on video games, but I think it's a unique case for cameras (leaving small hacks aside) and I'm a big fan of taking old hardware to the limit!
Let's give another push to the donations to keep the flow running

Magic Lantern is not firmware!

Magic Lantern is not firmware!

True, but you get the point

People mostly go to the fb group to ask questions and share their videos, so it will take a few days before everyone gets to see the announcement.
The other thing is that fb and YT compression makes the 1080p mode look "Acceptable" (And some of the members have so much talent that the images actually look quite good!)
Some time will be needed for people to realize how significant Bilal's latest work is (and what he means with the post with Drake in it, as some users never used those modes before  )

Paypal is banned in my country. I found a way and sent it. I'm waiting for the MK3 build, but it's okay if it doesn't come out. Thank you Bilal!

Thanks for your intention to support! I have already talked about 5D3 status in first post .. I hope I get something on 5D3 in future.
Where are you located? Do you know other platforms which work in your country other than PayPal?

Thanks for interest.

The real reason why donations slowed down, be brave!

[iaburn]

The real reason why donations slowed down

Very much on point...

Don't want to get political here, but same thing happens when people disagree with something and they wait for others to take the responsibility and the risk of public protesting.

It will help you, you'll benefit from it, so don't wait for others to do it for you

Donated a small amount on the 1st day, but I am ready to repeat the donation if the situation doesn't improve in a few days. Thanks for your work, Bilal!

[morero10]

first thank you Bilal for your great effort. I tried to donate and When I completed filling out the form, it gives me a message that there is a problem and I must try again. Is there a solution? I'm from morocco

[Bruno Italiano]

I haven't seen this donation on the Facebook page of Magic Lantern? Maybe helping to encourage even more?

Of course we don't force anyone to donate, but some memes seem to encourage more people

Are you donating through PayPal option or Debit/Credit cards option? What kind of error is showing?

[theBilalFakhouri]

Sure it might help. I don't have direct access to it, but more likely a discussion should be made with ML team to decide what's appropriate to post and what isn't on offical ML accounts.
For now I think official ML FB page is dedicated for more general announcements rather than individual stuff announcements.

[morero10]

i have donating through Debit/Credit cards option
