firmware?

[TRiP]

anyone on here had any experience with modified firmware? particularly with a 300d.

I'm considering installing the unduchables firmware for my 300d which would give me manualy selectable AF modes, ISO3200, mirror lock-up etc. well, most of the functions of the 10d really.

looked it up on the net and not heard any horror stories about it.

i put the undutchables firmware on this morning and went out for a day shooting the mountain bike racing. didnt have any problems with it at all. didnt use iso3200 properly, but tested it and it isnt much noiseir than 1600, definately useable.


Sleepyd - ai servo mode kind of works. i dont have to flick to manual focus to take the shot, only have to hold down the 'left' button , then the shutter button works as normal.

Ah ok - this might mean I'll do a spot of hacking as AI Servo would be v. useful.

Did it mess up the controls on the camera anymore than that?

no. nothing else changed. i believe you have the ability to change the button controlls at some point but i haveny tried to do that.

noticed one thing doesnt work thats in the custom menu, thats second curtain flash. quite disapointed about that though it could just be my fault that i havent got it to work.
