(The following is the history of past firmware updates)Ĭorrects the phenomenon in which remote shooting with the Camera Connect App is not possible after connecting the EOS 7D Mark II to a smartphone via the Wi-Fi Adapter W-E1. The extracted folder contains the firmware (File name: 7D200113.FIR, File size: 31,486,272 bytes) and instructions on the firmware update procedures (a PDF file in five languages: Japanese, English, French, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese).īefore starting the firmware update operations, please confirm the contents of the download, and carefully read through the firmware update procedures. Right-click the zip file, and then select Extract All to extract the file. When updating the firmware of the camera, please review the instructions thoroughly before you download the firmware.Īfter the downloaded compressed file (.zip) is extracted, a firmware folder is created. If the camera's firmware is already Version 1.1.3, it is not necessary to update the firmware. Corrects a vulnerability related to firmware update.įirmware Version 1.1.3 is for cameras with firmware up to Version 1.1.2.

Corrects a PTP communications vulnerability.Ģ. I'm not sure if this actually works that way or not (it is one of those things that unless you have some pretty decent test equipment, it becomes very difficult to measure).Firmware Version 1.1.3 incorporates the following fix:ġ. The theory being that when the buffer does get full, it takes longer for the camera to clear it out and be ready for shooting again than it does if the buffer never gets completely full. So instead of "shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot" you would do "shoot, shoot, shoot, slight pause, shoot, shoot, shoot". I've read in a couple places that it is actually somewhat easy to get a bit more mileage out of a max burst by releasing the trigger every so often instead of holding it down steady the whole time. This improvement is helping to fix the buffer full issue by clearing the buffer faster, thus allowing more consecutive frames at a time. The 7D already has one of the highest FPS on the market today at 8 FPS. this improvement is already being done to the buffer. I wonder if there will be any improvements made on the buffer as well by the time the update releases in August.I'm confused what you mean here.

No matter what your camera's burst rate is, if you shoot continuously and fill the buffer though, the camera will either slow down dramatically or stop altogether, and that damn "card busy" light will begin to blink. Yes, but also for anyone who shoots on continuous.
