The release improves reliability of built-in flash exposure

Just now, Canon has rolled out its 1.1.4 firmware package targeted at EOS 700D (EOS Rebel T5i) digital cameras, which improves the built-in flash exposure reliability and addresses a few issues regarding focus and LCD brightness functions.

Specifically speaking, Canon fixes the problem in which its imaging unit wouldn’t properly configure focus settings when using certain lenses to take pictures remotely along with the producer’s EOS Utility software.

Moving forward, firmware 1.1.4 also resolves the LCD brightness issue, where settings weren’t applied correctly when pressing the SET button. This phenomenon occurred only when the “Menu Display” option was assigned to the SET button in Custom Functions setting (C.Fn-7).

Therefore, if these changes are useful and you consider upgrading your camera, first of all go to Menu > Setup 4 > Firmware Version, and make sure the device’s currently installed build isn’t either newer or matching the present release.

If all is ok, save and unpack the downloadable archive, initialize an SD card using the EOS unit and transfer the “CCF14114.FIR” onto its root directory. Then, turn off your camera and insert the memory card into an appropriate slot.

Now, rotate Mode Dial to “P,” power on Canon’s EOS 700D unit, and go to Menu > Setup 4 > Firmware Version again. Afterwards, just press “Set” and agree with the installation process that is about to be carried out.

Most importantly, keep in mind that while firmware 1.1.4 in being applied, you mustn’t press any of the camera’s buttons or remove the battery/memory card. Doing so will not only interrupt the upgrade but can also lead to various device malfunctions.

That being said, download Canon EOS Rebel T5i Camera Firmware 1.1.4, take into account all aspects mentioned earlier, and carefully update your imaging unit. Also, don’t forget to check back with us as often as possible in order to be up to speed with the latest releases.
