New EOS 7D firmware will bring major improvements
June 28, 2012 by Leave a Comment
In August Canon will make a new firmware available for the EOS 7D that will bring major improvements:
- Customizable auto ISO
- Buffer of 25 raw pictures instead of 15
- In-camera picture rating
- Usage of GPS GP-E2 module
- Control of audio recording level for video
With the exception of the questionable in-camera picture rating (who will use that anyway?) this is an excellent move and hopefully will set a new Standard for camera makers. Three years after the 7D’s launch it’s unusal but highly welcomed that a camera is updated in this way.

Canon announces the EOS 650D / Rebel T4i featuring some interesting new features:
- 18 MP sensor
- 5 fps
- Touch screen
- Phase detection AF system (“hybrid CMOS”) for focussing in movie and live view modus (similar to Nikon J1)
- Full HD video at 24/25/30 fps and stereo mics
- ISO 100 too 12800, boostable to 25600
Quite a nice update to its predecessor EOS 600D /Rebel T3i !
Additionally to the new cam there are also two new lenses for shooting video: a very small EF 40/2.8 pancake and EF-S 18-135/3.5-5.6 IS, both featuring a motor for silent and fast focusing.
