Support the project!

Autopilot-onset

Thanks to your help, we have covered all our funding needs for now.

Please consider donating to EFF for us, because they do a great job in defending your digital rights, including the right to run third party software on your own devices!

THIS IS DANGEROUS AND MIGHT DAMAGE YOUR CAMERA. NO WARRANTIES. NO GUARANTEES. DO NOT TAUNT. IF IT BREAKS, YOU GET TO KEEP BOTH PIECES.

This software is not fully functional yet. The Err70 bug is still somtimes affecting recording while drawing to the screen.

Do not use this for production work: if you can't deal with a lost take or dropped frame or other problem, you shouldn't be running it!

Instructions

  • Very important: remove the battery after each test run. Sometimes the tasks are not properly shutdown when it enters power save mode, leading to the CPU to stay in a tight loop and run down your battery.
  • Copy the magiclantern.fir file to the root directory on the CF card
  • Select "Updated firmware" from the menu
  • Camera reboots directly into LiveView mode
  • You must reload the firmware after every powersave event or card removal

THIS IS A PRE-RELEASE VERSION. Do not use it for production. There will be problems with it. It might destroy your camera. Please don't complain widely on the forums if something doesn't work -- we want to fix it. Please complain directly to me, hudson, so that things can get fixed!

DO NOT SEND THIS LINK TO ANYONE ELSE. Until the official release, this is still a private beta, even though it is on a public website.

Good luck!
