Hello!

I installed ML Alpha 1 for 7D several times and followed always exactly the instructions. But: nothing happens when I press the DELETE button. Display remains black. Everything else works. I have now re-installed ML 5x.

I use a Sandisk Ultra 8GB CF-Card.

Any ideas?

what is ML 5x !?

can you please upload a video where you show what steps you've done?

5x = 5 times...

Thanks for your post! BUT I am such a M-O-R-O-N. I have downloaded the original firmware (17MB) and installed it over and over again... until I saw there is another download for the ML alpha 1.  ::)

I am ashamed  :-[

Now it works! You guys are gods! Thank you very much!

I noticed a problem when using ML: when I tried to focus normally (not using LiveView) using a focus point other than the middle focus point, the camera could not lock the focus. When I turned off the camera (so ML was deactivated) and tried again, focus was working fine.

I have not tried this again, so it could be a one-time problem, but maybe someone else can try to reproduce?

Anyway for the rest ML was working fine, the magic zoom is great (although it flickers quite a lot).

Normally, ML should not alter AF functionality at all.

Please try to reproduce.

Magic Zoom usually flickers in high-FPS modes. Try changing the size or the position, it sometimes helps.

There is a way to implement it flicker-free, but at the risk of altering frame rate and introducing jitter.
Is it also a known issue that it flickers on 1080p 25fps? I'll try changing the size to see if that helps.

Ok, I will try to reproduce using the same conditions.

if this has been answered already i'm sorry, but i can't seem to upload the ML file to the root of the camera. is there any specific reason why this is happening? both firmwares seemed to have installed to the camera just fine but this is the only thing holding me from being able to get magic lantern.

So Canon's next 5D3 firmware update will include Clean 4:2:2 HDMI out and center point Phase Detect AF for f/8 which they've also recently enabled on the 1DX with a firmware update.

My question is, will there be any possibility of enabling f/8 Phase Detect Auto Focusing for the 7D through Magic Lantern?

Thanks for all your work! ;-D

Most probably not. Magic Lantern does not copy Canon code, see FAQ.

Looks like you are using the 7D as a card reader. If that is so, then the behavior is expected. The camera will only allow VERY limited accessability to the CF-card. And writing weird folder-structures(as we have to with ML) isn't part of it. The only way to install ML right now is to use an external card reader (not the camera) to write the files needed to the card.

Ah I see, so the feature isn't already in there just limited to f/5.6, this would actually require writing/re-writing new code which Canon now owns.

Ok, thanks anyway.

There are no signs that Canon might release an official version of Magic Lantern yet.

Are you actually reading what is being posted? The problem with your 7D is not the alpha state but the lack of a simple and cheap card reader. Are you seriously saying that you can't afford one? LOL.

Soooo... am I reading that right when I say that it's analytics of a video that is variable bitrate with average bitrate of around 100 Mbps and maxing out at 200Mbps? sounds interesting... would like to see example videos and how we can use it...

Anyways... Sounds awesome. :)
