Canon announced today an upcoming firmware update to the EOS 5D Mark II that will enable manual exposure controls within the video shooting mode. This is great because now you’ll have full access to ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture while shooting full 1920 x 1080p video.
Canon says the free downloadable firmware update will be available in early June 2009.
thats great
what a wonderful day

Any info on using DSLR with the new Canon firmware update for 5Dmark2? Will you be able to adjust exposure in “live view” mode? At least for me, in live view, the camera is auto only, as in video mode before the firmware upgrade.

@Ken Easley:
In the 1.0 update, we don’t support starting, stopping or making any adjustments in while in Video mode. I’m not sure if the SDK from Canon allows us to do anything with the latest Canon 5D Mark II firmware update or not.
