#Canon eos 700d liveview upgrade#
Put the card on camera again and went to upgrade firmware and so, installed the new ML build. Copied the content of the folder with the new "Lua Fix" build to the root directory of the card. Turned off the camera and carried the card again to the computer I low format the card again in order to remove the newly copied firmware file.

Put the card on camera and went to the firmware update and updated to latest version 1.5.1 Copied the new firmware file to the card´s root directory Removed the card from the camera and inserted on a card reader on the computer I low format the card in order to remove any trace of old ML files. Using a completely charged battery, I uninstalled ML from camera, using the method explained in the guide, where you access on camera´s menu "firmware update" and removed ML ( Read the guide for more instructions ).

I Made a backup of my camera´s card ( With the old ML content in any case. I downloaded firmware 1.5.1 from ML website and unzipped the content into a folder Since I already solved, here´s how I did:

Since my firmware was old, and I already use ML, I had to remove ML and do a firmware upgrade to 1.5.1 in order to install this new ML build. This fix is called "Lua Fix", and it´s located on the Magic Lantern website, on the top of the page -> Downloads -> Download (dropdown menu) -> Experiments -> Lookup "lua_fix build" for T5i. Magic Lantern is a software which once installed on canon cameras, give a wide range of new characteristics, and a friend from the ML forum wrote a code which prevent T5i from turning off automatically liveview after 30 minutes. The problem is that, like many other Canon DSLR cameras, it has a timer which turns off liveview automatically after 30 minutes, forcing a person to turn it on again and again, or pressing the half shutter button from time to time, which is annoying. Factor in its price, and it’s simply the best pound-for-pound DSLR on the planet, which is why it replaces the 650D at No.2 in our Top 10 list of the best system cameras in the world.Although there are many topics on this subject, and since this is a frequently asked question on the forum, I tried to answer it for good:Ĭanon T5i ( 700D ) is a good camera, and many people try to use it these days for live streaming, as a "good webcam", using it´s HDMI output in capture cards ( Or canon software ) in OBS, Wirecast or these kind of softwares. Many new CSCs may have faster autofocus and smaller bodies, but on the other hand the 700D has a larger sensor, a proper optical viewfinder and a much bigger lens selection.

If you’re making your first jump from a compact, it’s a brilliant choice: it takes superb photos, handles brilliantly and has plenty of neat little touches. That Canon range has been the benchmark in its class for years, though, and being a slightly tweaked version of the 650D means this is still a genuinely fantastic camera. Indeed, if you currently use a 600D or even the four-year-old 550D there’s little beyond the flip-out touchscreen to get excited about. If you own a 650D the only real difference is the lens, and that’s available on its own anyway (albeit for £200). The limited new features of the 700D mean that as an upgrade it’s almost pointless.
