Canon Releases Firmware 1.0.3 for EOS 50D

Canon EOS 50D DSLR

Canon has updated its firmware for the EOS 50D digital SLR camera. Firmware v1.0.3 offers the the following improvements:

1. Corrects a phenomenon in which an image becomes overexposed when C.Fn.II-3 Highlight tone priority is set to “1” together with other camera settings. (This correction has already been incorporated in the Version 1.0.2 and later firmware.

2. Corrects a rare phenomenon in which “busy” blinks on the camera’s display panel and the shutter cannot be released due to the timing of battery installation.

3. Corrects a rare phenomenon in which “Err 99” appears on the camera’s display panel and LCD monitor and the shutter cannot be released due to the timing of pressing the shutter button.
