After a month or two of procrastination, I finally decided to reflash my Digital Rebel and upgrade the firmware to version 1.1.1. Since I purchased a FireWire Delkin CompactFlash reader, I had the ability to write the firmware to a card without jumping through the hoops of a data upload via the camera’s USB cable.
The upgrade went without a hitch, and only took a couple minutes. I haven’t noticed any changes in the camera, but I’m a geek and it gives me the warm fuzzies to have the latest and greatest code on all of my hardware.
Have you tried the hacked firmware? I use it for several months already and it works fine. It gives you some very nice hidden features…
No, not yet. Is tracking it down as simple as doing a Google search for it?
Aha! I found the E3kr111M firmware hack: http://satinfo.narod.ru/en/index.html
Sorry for the delay…
You can find some threads on dpreview.com forums. I am not sure if you can download the firmware itself. I can send it to you if you want.
Yup, already found it. I think I’ll hold off for a while, though. Thanks anyway!
