Thanks for the video! So in order to use Magic Lantern on my T3i, do I have to have those 2 files and 1 folder from their website on whatever SD card I'm using? For example, while following your tutorial, I used a 16 GB SD card. After I installed Magic Lantern on my camera, can I take that 16 GB SD card out, and then put a different SD card in and still be able to use Magic Lantern on my camera? Or do I have to have those 2 files and 1 folder on every SD card I use in my camera?
Hi Michael! Yes, you have magic lantern installed on every SD card you use. The reason is so your camera's firmware is not being replaced with magic lantern's firmware. Instead the magic lantern firmware is installed on the SD card to override the camera's firmware. It's safer overall for your camera to not be corrupted. If you have any other questions, let me know!
Just updated my canon 550d firmware to the latest version: EOS Rebel T2i / EOS 550D Firmware Update, Version 1.1.0 Where can I get a version of Magic Lantern that will run on this latest firmware update?
sir i have 6d mark ii dslr but my problem is that firmware has 1.1.1 and ml has 1.1.6 firmware is required in 6d mark ii. That's why I can't install ML on my 6D camera. What Can I do?
Can anyone help - I bought an EOS-M that had an SD card already with Magic Lantern. It worked fine, but the card is not fast enough to record video in RAW. I want to install Magic Lantern on a better SD card, but can't seem to do so. I followed the above steps but I get the message 'memory card containing firmware is required to update'. Any advice?
Let's say you have two SD cards. Card "A" is equipped with the Magic Lantern firmware and Card "B" is just the regular SD card I've been using since the day the camera was purchased. Can I switch from one card to the other? So that when Card "A" is in the camera I'm using Magic Lantern and when Card "B" is in, it is using the camera's firmware like it did the day I brought it home from the store. Thoughts ?
A very late answer here, but I'm only now looking into this and others will follow... It seems that is the case. An SD that NEVER had ML on it would boot up into Canon firmware. What's even easier is that even with the ML SD card in the camera, you can just hold the SET button as you switch on and it will load Canon's stock firmware instead of ML.
Hi! Thanks for watching! Do you have the files copied to the root of the SD card? as apposed to coping the whole extracted folder to the root of the card. I think the firmware files are not being recognized because its in a folder and not in the on the root of the card. Also make sure you format your card before you Transfer the ML files. Watch 3:00 - 5:00 to make sure the ML Process was done right. Let me know if this helps.
Hi Jaden, Unfortunately no. T7i is not supported. There is not build for it yet. I know the Magic lantern team is always working on supporting new cameras so it might just be a matter of time. If There is a build, and it becomes supported, i'll be sure to post it. If you have anymore questions, Let me know. Thanks for watching!
Is there a solution to restore the camera? I tried to boot up the camera with the SET button pressed, which is supposed to remove the ML. However, the camera cannot be turned on since. Does anyone have suggestions to fix it please? I tried this on a 60D Thanks
Hi samyliu, if you want, you can put in a new SD card and it will boot without ML. The ML is only installed on the SD card and not on the camera itself (it doesn't replace camera firmware). Also if you don't have an extra SD card and want to boot without ML. try to disable any custom function associated with the SET button, from canon menu. Or reflash ml on SD card. And you can try booting with the SET button pressed. Hope this helps!
hey man, I'm using the rebel t2i, with a high-quality faster Sd card and it can't shoot with 60fps or 50fps, I click the record button when I'm on high fps, and immediately the camera shut down. hope you'll help me, thanks advanced.

Where can I get a version of Magic Lantern that will run on this latest firmware update?
I tried updating my t2i to 1.0.9, but I guess canon doesn't support it anymore thanks though you definitely gave me hope
search for t2i 1.0.9 firmware and reinstall it
Did you ever figure this out ??

Hi. After putting the card in my 600D, under the firmware section, it says 'memory card containing firmware is required to update'. Any ideas? Thanks

I don't see "firmware version" on my Canon 500D, is there any way to fix this?
Put it in Manual.
Thank you for the tutorial. ;)
Does magic lantern allow a clean HDMI feed out of the canon t3i?
Hi Christian! Yes. IT can be done in the Magic Lantern menu.
ML menu > Display > Clear overlays
Hope this helps
@@LifeofLevTech Does it leave the black borders around the edges of the display?
