Not due to a design constraint, but rather, a stupid bug in the Philips reference code (my first DVD player, from Pioneer, did read DVD-RW when they came out. So there were, as an easy example, about half of all first generation DVD players that couldn’t read DVD-RW discs. Unfortunately, in the past, many CE devices simply weren’t able to be upgraded. You have found and qualified all bugs you think you can find internally, and so the beta testing period is on a feature-complete version of software, perhaps with some known but being-fixed bugs but otherwise, “we think it’s good, we need you to help prove that”.Įventually the beta test stops yielding new bugs, and so you release. The original point of beta testing was moving that test outside of the engineering group. Of course, there is also the tendency to make end-users part of the beta test process.

That doesn’t mean that the PA people necessarily get to test with every lens, but it certainly does mean that if a problem is reported, verification and a fix ought to be pretty quick. I would think that Canon has a copy of every lens they’ve made, and at least every licensed version of lenses using the EF mount, somewhere in their labs. When you see that Microsoft certified sticker on a box of software or hardware, that tells that somewhere in Redmond, they have that item available for testing. If do product assurance the way it’s done in the computer industry, they really should be able to test everything.

So what are your thoughts about this new firmware update from Canon for the 7D Mark II? Did they do enough, or is there more that needs to be addressed in your mind? Leave a comment below and let us know what you think.
But what did you expect? This is Canon we are talking about – not Fuji. Just fixing things that were not working correctly in the first place. No new features, and no new functionality. Overall, it looks to be a pretty standard ‘fixes’ firmware update from Canon. Fixes a phenomenon in which, in very rare cases, image noise may appear in JPEG images when brightness or contrast is corrected by the Auto Lighting Optimizer function.Fixes a phenomenon in which, in very rare cases, the first still image captured in live view mode may not record the correct date and time.Fixes a phenomenon in which the Picture Style settings may not be applied to the captured image when the camera is set to custom shooting mode C1, C2 or C3.Fixes a phenomenon in which, in rare instances, the reduction of the flicker effect cannot be achieved when in AI servo AF mode, despite the “Anti-flicker shoot” function being set to “Enable”.Fixes a phenomenon in which the camera’s AF function may not operate properly at a focal length of approximately 100mm when used with the EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens.For a list of issues the new 1.04 Firmware update addresses, keep reading.

#CANON 7D FIRMWARE RESET UPGRADE#
The emergence of the Canon EOS 70D is something that is eagerly awaited by enthusiasts mid-range SLR cameras who want to upgrade from the Canon EOS 60D camera to camera Canon Eos 70D. The camera is learned and adopted many of the best bits of previous Canon SLR cameras, including autofocus sensor of the EOS 7D, the touch screen on the camera is fully articulated from the EOS 700D (Rebel T5i), and built-in Wi-Fi on the EOS 6D. However, a sensor Canon EOS 70D adopted completely new technology which has high potential and revolutionary.Canon has released a new firmware update for the 7D Mark II which addresses several issues that users have reported with the camera and its autofocus. Reset Canon EOS 70D to its Default Settings – Since its emergence in the world of DSLR cameras, Canon became the undisputed leader in CMOS image sensor technology. Almost all EOS models newcomers there is always an increase in resolution and high ISO range, and when the EOS 7D was released in late 2009, Canon has grown from 3 megapixels to 18 megapixels, and from ISO 1600 to ISO 12800, in just nine years. But since then the APS-C camera Canon has put all variants of the same basic sensor design.
