Updated also.. Gotten so used to recording using an AGC-Disable setup (cable + mp3 tone) and a very loud amplified mic..

Now suddenly find that my audio keeps peaking non-stop...

Have to re-learn recording without the automatic gain... Haha...

What kind of problems are you referring to?

The Grids could be 'remove' by unselecting it from the camera menu...

Hello everyone.
Just got back from Cameron Highland using the updated firmware on the 7D.

Im not sure if anyone experience this, but after taking a shot, the loading time for the preview image takes longer than usual.
And the Red indicator light keeps on blinking.

Ive used my 7D for 400+ images with no problem or any lag-ness. But with the new firmware, around 200/+ images the camera start to show the laggy part.

Btw, all images is in jpeg,
32Gb UDMA 60mbs card.

Anyone face the same problem?

 

[daren81]

I experience the lag .... Not sure why but kinda regret upgrading...

No need 'regret'... firmware could always be upgraded again...

I upgraded to Version 2 last week. Don't have any of the problems mentioned here.
BTW. After flashing the firmware. Do you guys folllow the instructions given by Canon?
The procedures are;
1. Power OFF the camera
2. Take out the battery
3. Wait for a while
4. Insert the battery
5. Power ON the camera

Maybe this will help.

Anyone having the camera hang after the v2.0 upgrade. Read up on the web tis tend to happen due to the auto shut power off function. I'm having this issue and wondering am i the only one?
