  Magic Lantern Questions

  Posted by Ben Edwards on February 24, 2011 at 5:20 pm

  Hi All,

  Thanks to Jonathan Ziegler, I have now got ML working on my 550D.

  When I put the SD card with firmware in it and power up it starts. Originally I though I kept a card to boot the Camera and then could change card but when I remove card camera powers down. Do I need the firmware on all cards?

  Also are there any guides/documentation to using ML. I have looked on the ML Wiki but cant find anything.

  Regards,
  Ben

  Yes, I’d like to know the answer to this too 🙂

  I don’t work with DSLRs, but as long as I know the software needs to be loaded every time you power the camera up. So, yes; you need the ML firmware on every card.

  Can confirm Rafaels answer. ML has to be on every card. If you delete the ML files or format the card, ML is gone.
  Don’t know which version/build you have, but in the ML version that I use there’s a PDF included, that gives (more or less) detailed information about all features.

  Which ML version are you using? I tried the 0.2.0 Version on the 550d from december and the last from 31th of may. Both are too buggy to use it seriously.

  Cheers
  Thomas.

  What version ML do you use? Would you be able to provide a link to where you dl’d from with the PDF or upload the manual. Also what version would you recomend for a 550d?
