EOS 7D Firmware, Version 1.2.5 [Windows]

Description

Changes in this firmware: Firmware Version 1.2.5 incorporates the following improvements and fixes. 1. Fixed a rare phenomenon in which there were rare cases where movie files taken could not be opened when repeatedly shooting movies with specific CF cards. 2. Fixed a rare phenomenon in which there were cases where „Err 02″ appeared when repeatedly shooting still images with specific CF cards. 3. Fixed a phenomenon that occurred when using high-capacity (32 GB or greater) CF cards: If either a CF card with only a little available space remaining or the battery was removed and then reinserted into the camera, and then the user attempted to start shooting movies immediately, shooting would stop. 4. Improved the writing/reading speeds when using UDMA 7-compatible CF cards. 5. Fixed a phenomenon that occurred when custom function C.Fn 4-1 was set to assign IS start to the AF stop button on the lens: When used with lenses that do not have an AF stop button, the IS function would not work. 6. Corrected some mistakes in the menu screens displayed in Arabic and Portuguese. (This applies to models in overseas markets. The models for the Japanese market do not display those languages.)

We get info about new firmware that is coming for 60D that will fix some problems with audio settings, but do you (users) have noticed any problems with sound recording in movies ?

Audio Control summary:

  • Built-in microphone (mono sound), with standard 3.5mm stereo jack for external microphones
  • Choice of automatic or manual recording level control for sound (in manual, the user can select from a 64-step range to maintain consistent recording levels, depending on ambient conditions). Sound recording can also be disabled completely, if the user desires.
  • Built-in Wind Filter (selectable in “sound recording” menu, when in video mode); can easily be switched on or off (out-of-the-box default setting is off)
