Firmware Changes

Firmware Version 1.0.7 incorporates the following changes:

Corrects a phenomenon where captured images may tend to appear somewhat magenta depending on the shooting scene. If the background has little or no contrast (such as the sky or white walls), and the white balance (WB) setting of the camera is not AWB (Auto White Balance), images may tend to appear somewhat magenta.
Fixes incorrect indications on the Arabic, Romanian, Spanish, and Ukrainian menu screens.

Firmware Version 1.0.7 is for cameras with firmware up to Version 1.0.6 and it includes the following improvements from the previous versions:

Version 1.0.6 Changes

Supports the AF assist beam feature of the new flash, Speedlite 270 EX, which was released on April 2009. In low light situations, the AF assist beam fires during autofocusing. The conditions under which the AF assist beam will fire have changed in Firmware Version 1.0.5 or later.
Changes the error indications that are displayed on the camera.
Addresses the vertical banding noise phenomenon. If the recording format is set to sRAW1, vertical banding noise may become visible depending on the camera settings, subject, and background.This phenomenon is addressed by this firmware.

Version 1.0.3 Changes

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).
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.
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.

It is good to know that Canon has introduced an additional Firmware Update for the EOS 50D, which includes a color correction for images and a solution for incorrect indications on the Arabic, Romanian, Spanish and Ukrainian menu screens. It is good to visit this web site which touches on digital underwater photography. I bet they would have tested even CCTVs under the water.
