Just saw this on twitter. An anonymous donor gave a 7D to Hudson. While you might be thinking “So what? I have a 5DMrkII!” and even be a bit frustrated to know the 7D might take some time away from Hudson to work on the 5DMrkII, this could be in fact a good news.
Quoted from the Magic Lantern site FAQ when asked about if it would be possible to add 24p to the 5D:
Additionally it might be possible to read the firmware in the 7D or 500D/T1i to see how the different frame rates are selected and to program the DIGIC4 in the 5D Mark II with the same values to see if it works.
Only time will tell.
I dont understand the part about the t1i, i love my t1i, but there’s no such thing as 24 fps on my machine…
maybe he’s refering to the totaly useless 20 fps at 1080 ?
That is the thing. The hacked firmware goal would be to give this feature to the camera!
I m just happy i found your site, now I can go buya dfocus rig..
Thanks Knackers..
