March 26, 2005 - UnDutchables 0.2.3
The Undutchable folks who are keeping the firmware mods alive announced the release of the 0.2.3 version of the Undutchable firmware. This is the all of the features of the "Wasia" firmware with more enhancements, some of which are particularly interesting:
Enhancement over UnDutchables 0.1.0
- Full menu's in basic mode including RAW quality
- Full Info screen in basic mode
- AF-mode select moved to right key
- Left button press turns AF off, release turns AF on again.
Effectively this puts the lens in manual mode while the left button is pressed.
Pressing it when in AI-Servo mode will therefore release the shutter. You loose AF during button press though. This means that AI servo does not support predictive focusing.
You can download it from their website, be warned, its "90% dutch and 10% engish".
Notes:
1) Changing Quality from RAW in Basic mode may crash the camera. Nothing serious just turn the camera OFF and ON again. Changes must be made in a Creative modes or via the SET button + Custom Function-1 (see 10D manual page 166).
2) If the AF drive is set to AI-Servo the AF confirmation Ligh and Beep are turned off (as done in the 10D) but now it is turned off for all ALL modes. Please change to AI-Focus or One-Shot if AF confirmation Light and Beep is desired.
3) You can upgrade this firmware from either the Canon 1.1.1 or the Wasia B7.1 version without need to reset the firmware or the custom function values.
