It shows the magnified view in a small rectangle. Actually I find magic zoom much more useful than ficus peaking. For LOT more details of this latest Magic Lantern version, check Planet5D article: Fantastic New Magic Lantern Canon EOS 5D Mark II Firmware Version Announced. It works great on 6d in live iew and video. Our friends at Planet5D have recently posted the announcement of a new version of Magic Lantern. The 5Dc ML has focus peaking but only for image playback.Ĭan the 5D2 or 6D1 do focus peaking, with or without, ML? If you know of a way to do so that doesnt brick my 7D, please inform.

Just read it on Canons website, and on several other forums. Hi, my understanding is that the 7D cannot be downgraded from firmware 2.0.5 to 2.0.3. Was able to bracket 9 pictures if I wanted. It is possible to backdate to 2.0.3 in order to run Magic lantern on your 7D. I saw mention the ML has a feature to lock/open the mirror up, which could be used to implement live view?Įxample of focus peaking in post from a 5D with ML installed but ML uses white focus peaking pixels if I remember it right īecause the screen is so tiny on a 5D it is hard to see if I get the focus right. The beta 4 version claims to have focus peaking, zebras, etc.ĭoes the 5D 1 lack the necessary hardware? What more do you need, besides the MCU & LCD? I recommend you to read the first page at ML in the 5D classic thread. Without Live view you can't use focus peaking. I am thinking about putting it on my 5D Classic for focus peaking.
