It allows you to edit your camera's firmware. I am learning it now.

The override I am using it for is to keep the Canon 60D for shutting off after 12 minutes of filming video which drives me insane when it happens.

I have also found a raw video record feature that allows you to edit your video like it's all shot in photographs. It's like a hyper action photo setting.

Anyway, I am just now learning. It's on my camera now, and was wondering if anyone was further along with it than I am.

Here is a video I am watching now on it.

and I already watched this next one to learn how to do the raw video photo edit, and magic lantern install.

I remember doing something with a firmware update on a little Canon p&s that let me take high speed shots with it - Reagen Jul 14, 14:56
Is the 12 minute thing a corporate protection limit, or a limit to keep the sensor from overheating? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 14, 13:56 6
- So I have heard 2 possible reasons but this is the one that makes the most sense. - Bacon Jul 14, 14:00 5
  - Ah. - Beryllium Jul 14, 14:03 4
    - Oh yeah. Now I knew that happened on older equipment, but wasn't sure if that still happens. That said I won't take my chances that it still might. -- nm* - Bacon Jul 14, 14:06 3
      - I’d expect modern ones to have a temp sensor ... -- nm - Beryllium Jul 14, 14:09 2
