Changes in version 2.0.9 firmware includes the following improvements and fixes. 1. Improved speed of read and write compatible with UDMA CF cards 7. 2. Correction of non functioning of image stabilization (IS) when Custom Function C. Fn III-2 is set to [5: Activation stab. image] and the target does not have a stop button for autofocus. This is explained by the use of custom function C. Fn III -2 (AF goal setting button) on a product not provided with this button. 3.
Version 2.0.9 firmware is suitable for cameras on which is installed the version 2.0.8 or earlier firmware. If the camera's firmware is already version 2.0.9, it is not necessary to perform the update.

FAQ: Preparation for firmware update:
Q: What are the changes in version 2.0.9 firmware? A: The following improvements and fixes have been incorporated. 1. Improved speed of writing and reading UDMA CF cards compatible 7. 2. Correction of non functioning of image stabilization (IS) when Custom Function C. Fn III-2 is set to [5: Activation stab. image] and the target does not have a stop button for autofocus.

Q: Are the improvements from previous versions of firmware were included in the version 2.0.9 firmware? A: Yes, the following improvements from previous versions are included:


Improvements in version 2.0.8 (above)-The Canon 5D : 1. Corrects the phenomenon * 1) for which the videos are not recorded in the shooting mode selected in the settings of the user, if the shooting mode Aperture priority (or shutter priority) is chosen from any of the user settings of the camera (C1, C2, C3) and the user tries to record a video. * 1) This phenomenon occurs with cameras which are installed on versions 2.0.3 / 2.0.4 / 2.0.7 firmware. 2. Corrects the phenomenon of non-shutter when you press the shutter button and the automatic shutoff feature is set to "on." This happens because of the communication between the camera and the lens or flash, or because of the CF card. 3. Corrects the phenomenon * 2) of overexposure occur during the shooting mode simulation with the screen covered by the ISO speed set to L. * 2) This phenomenon occurs only when the Extender EF 2x is used, the ISO speed the camera is set to L (Low) and the shooting mode is set to P (program AE) . 4. Corrects the phenomenon back to the default settings of the transmitter ST-E2 flash when the camera and the ST-E2 are set to automatic shutdown. 5. Fixes a phenomenon in which the macro ring flash (MR-14EX, MT-24EX) and slave flash not synchronizing over the wireless shooting. Improvements in version 2.0.7 (above): 1. Fixes a phenomenon in which the diaphragm moves abnormally when recording video in manual exposure mode and aperture priority AE (Av mode) using some Canon lenses (such as macro lenses). Additional Information: This involves an abnormal movement of the diaphragm of the lens when the focusing ring moves (during development). For zoom-objective variable maximum apertures, opening changes when the zoom ring is used (for the action of the zoom), but this is normal behavior, and the actual opening changes according to the focal length (zoom position). 2. Corrects the phenomenon in which the exposure level indicated on the LCD screen is different from what is displayed in the viewfinder when shooting still images in manual exposure mode. 3. Corrects the phenomenon in which the Wireless File Transmitter (WFT-E4 or WFT-E4 II) may not stop automatically when it is used for FTP transfers.






Improvements in version 2.0.4 (previous) version 2.0.4 firmware incorporates improvements five video function and correction function manually cleaning the sensor of the Canon 5D.

Added display of a histogram (brightness or RGB) for video recording in manual exposure mode. 4. Added modes shutter priority AE (Tv) and aperture priority AE (Av) exposure modes for video recording. 5. Changing the sampling frequency of 44.1 KHz to 48 KHz. 6. Corrects the phenomenon of breakdown in communication between the camera and the target occurs sometimes after a manual sensor cleaning. (This only affects devices with firmware version 1.2.4.)




Improvements in version 1.2.4 : 1. Support for the Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E4 II was released in December 2009. After updating the firmware, if the wireless file transmitter WFT-E4 or WFT-E4 II is used with the camera, the instructions included in the [Communication Mode] in the [WFT settings] change as follows: FTP -> FTP trans PTP (PC) -> EOSUtility HTTP -> HTTP server WFT Account -> Account WFT 2. Corrects the phenomenon of possible occurrence of noise apparent in the images recorded in continuous shooting Bulb. This firmware update corrects the problem of noise that may appear on the recorded images while the previous image is still being generated, when [C. Fn II-1 Noise reduction for long exposure] is set [2: On].


Improvements in version 1.1.0 : 1. Inclusion of a function for adjusting the exposure manually when recording video. * When recording video in manual mode (M), the shutter speed * 1), the aperture of the lens * 2) and ISO speed * 3 can be freely adjusted to allow greater flexibility. Notes: * a range of shutter speed: 1 / 30 sec. to 1 / 4000 sec. * 2 range aperture: maximum aperture at least the lens used * 3 ISO speed range: Auto: ISO 100-6400 set automatically Manual: 100-6400 ISO, H1 2. Disabling the preview button depth of field when images are viewed or the menu screen is displayed on the LCD. * Images are watching or the menu screen may suddenly disappear from the LCD. Since this phenomenon could be caused by accidentally pressing the button to preview depth of field, this updated firmware of Canon 5D disables the preview depth of field to solve this problem. 3. Corrects the phenomenon for which the vignetting of the images can not be properly corrected, even if the images were photographed with the vignetting correction function of the target set. * The firmware version 1.1.0 fixes the phenomenon in which the vignetting of the image could not be properly corrected because of the lens used and the conditions of shooting. 4. Algorithm corrects the Auto Lighting Optimizer (automatic brightness correction) when Custom Function C. Fn II-3 Highlight tone priority is enabled. 5. Fixes incorrect indications of menu screens Arabic, Romanian, Spanish and Ukrainian. 6. Changing the battery information displayed on the camera when using the optional battery grip BG-E6. * If there is a battery LP-E6 installed in the battery grip BG-E6, an error message is displayed by way of battery information regarding the location of empty battery: Communication with the battery impossible. However, with this updated firmware, this error message no longer appears, even if there is a single LP-E6 battery installed.


Improvements in version 1.0.7 (above): 1. The phenomenon of "black spot" (the right side of light source shape point becomes black) When shooting night, the right side of light sources in the form of point (such as lights from building windows) may turn black. The phenomenon may become visible if the images are enlarged to 100% or more on a screen, or if large prints of the images are made. This firmware fixes and mitigates this phenomenon. 2. Vertical noise If the recording format is set to sRAW1, noise in vertical stripes may become apparent depending on the settings of the camera, the subject and the background. The firmware fixes and mitigates this phenomenon. Notes: When updating to version 1.0.7 firmware, you should also update the software Digital Photo Professional and Picture Style Editor


* 4 to the following versions or later. These software updates can be downloaded from our website. 4 * Digital Photo Professional: Version 3.5.2 or later (for Windows and Macintosh) Picture Style Editor: Version 1.4.2 or later (for Windows and Macintosh) If the old versions of software are used to display images and sRAW1 sRAW2 that were taken by a camera equipped with firmware version 1.0.7, the black areas and low-contrast images may appear slightly magenta. If the updated software is used to display images and sRAW1 sRAW2, color images appear normal, regardless of the firmware version of the camera.
