That's awesome!! I've always wanted to try if Trap Focus would work with my MP-E65.

For the longest time I was under the impression that Magic Lantern only published easier to read camera instruction manuals. I wasn't aware that they come up with alternative firmwares. I know this is a "self-promotion" post but can you in brief tell me the advantages of the ML firmware compared to the 7.0.2 FW just introduced by Canon? I couldn't get that on ML website. Please send me a PM if you feel that it is not appropriate to post it here. Thanks!

Magic Lantern is indeed some publisher of manuals

this ML group has nothing to do with the guys making the books.

The feature set of Magic Lantern is huge

Focus and exposure essentials

* Focus peaking
* Magic zoom
* Follow focus

* Zebras
* RGB histogram
* False color
* Waveform
* Vectorscope


Dedicated photo functionality

* Advanced HDR bracketing
* Very long exposures
* Macro focus stacking
* Trap focus
* Motion detection
* time lapse

there's a ton of more stuff too - this just scratches the surface

Awesome! I have been running ML on my 5D2 this week and it really does make it like a new camera.

Are they really gonna make it available for 7D though? I saw 0% interest for the 7D version in the poll.

well, focus peaking shows you what is in focus on your lcd - assisting you in making sure what you want to be in focus is indeed.

zebras show you what is blown out in your video while recording

i did a video on the features of ML - it is 30 minutes and I didn't even touch all the features.

I didn't see the poll, but I can tell you interest levels in the announcement this morning are thru the roof.

maybe people didn't respond to the poll since they previously thought the 7D was unhackable?

Installed it on mine Michelle and I would have to agree. FINALLY - one push to see images fully zoomed on on the LCD to check focus! - Why Canon hasn't done this years ago I can't understand. Focus peaking is pretty cool as well.

A few months ago, firmware 2.0 just made the 7D just like a new camera.

Now, with the Magic Lantern, 7D IS now a totally new camera.

I would think that focus peaking would be a great tool for using a TS-E lens, is it?
