Whoa, I googled for "magic lantern canon eos", and the first thing I found was something else:


A "hacked" firmware for the 5DmkII, with a 7D version in the works, that adds many more features for shooting videos (e.g. real-time audio monitoring and level display). See theMagic Lantern Firmware Wikiwhich has all the details and a nice introductory video...


Thanks, Colin
