    Go to your country's Canon website to acquire the download.

    For mac, choose Lion instead of Mountain Lion(if you're on ML) because it wont show up when you select ML.

    Been using it for a while, the rating comes in quite handy from time to time. RAW processing is quite handy too, for on camera processing, that is.

    manual audio levels and the increased RAW buffer are the highlights IMO

    I wonder why these features weren't available right from the start. Especially the added buffer... what's with that? :eek::rolleyes::confused:

    My guess is the developers at Canon set what they thought a reasonable number at the time, and since then CF speeds have increased.

    The manual audio levels is the one feature I actually care about. If the 7D had that before, I probably would have kept my 7D and sold my 5D Mark II instead, when I acquired the 5D Mark III.

    because the speeds of the fastest CF cards weren't as fast as they are today.
