Update the software in your DSLR cameras and get rid of pesky errors

Today we're bringing you two new pieces of code for two of Canon's professional line cameras, the EOS-1D and EOS 5D.

These DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflection) cameras had some firmware errors reported by users and the new firmware seems to have eliminated them. First of all, for the EOS-1D, the 1.0.4 firmware fixes the network error which used to occur when using the wireless file transmitter.

Then it's the sudden disconnection between the EOD-1D and the computer, when using the EOS Utility to shoot movies and the DSLR would not recognize the wireless transmitter.

The EOS 5D firmware version 2.1.1 addresses two other errors: some mistakes in the Dutch language menu screen and the continuous/ Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB) shooting being stopped after capturing the first image.

Both pieces of firmware are available for Windows and Mac, and here are the links: Canon EOS-1D Mark IV WFT-E2II A/B/C/D Firmware 1.0.4 for Windows Canon EOS-1D Mark IV WFT-E2II A/B/C/D Firmware 1.0.4 for Mac Canon EOS 5D Mark II Firmware 2.1.1 for Windows Canon EOS 5D Mark II Firmware 2.1.1 for Mac
