Magic Lantern is a firmware add-on for various Canon digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras and the EOS M. [2] It adds features for DSLR filmmaking and still photography, and is free and open-source. Magic Lantern was originally written for the Canon EOS 5D Mark II [3] by Trammell Hudson in 2009 after he reverse engineered its firmware. [1]
DRYOS (also stylized as DryOS) is a proprietary real-time operating system made by Canon and is used in their digital cameras and camcorders. [1]Since late 2007, DIGIC-based cameras are shipped using DRYOS.
The free software Canon Hack Development Kit (CHDK) project, started by Andrey Gratchev, has successfully enhanced many Canon PowerShot cameras without replacing the stock firmware. [ 29 ] [ 30 ] It allows programmatic control of many Canon compact cameras, enabling users to add features, including games and scripts written in UBASIC or Lua .
Canon used its experience with small film cameras, particularly the APS IXUS, to mass-produce good digital cameras smaller than anyone else had managed up to the time (the first Digital IXUS was the smallest 2 MP then available [2]) and reused the popular IXUS/IXY/ELPH brand name with the tag line "The DIGITAL IXUS blends Canon's award-winning ...
With AJA CamXChange software on OS-X Yosemite via Thunderbolt Port (DCI 4K to 30fps), CineDNG format. With AJA CamXChange (or Possibly AJA Control Room - unconfirmed by owners) using AJA Io-4K in single or dual-link 3G-SDI (DCI 4K up to 60fps), or AJA Kona4 PCIe card to Raid Array (DCI 4K up to 120fps), all in CineDNG format.
The camera uses a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor, which is shared with other consumer high definition cameras manufactured by Canon, such as the HV10, HR10 and HG10. The replacement for the HV20, the HV30, was released in March 2008, soon followed by the HV40.
As originally used, firmware contrasted with hardware (the CPU itself) and software (normal instructions executing on a CPU). It was not composed of CPU machine instructions, but of lower-level microcode involved in the implementation of machine instructions. It existed on the boundary between hardware and software; thus the name firmware.
Canon full-frame cameras have used the EF lens mount since 1987. In comparison with that mount, the RF mount's inner diameter is the same at 54 mm. [1] The RF mount's flange focal distance at 20 mm is much shorter than that of the Canon EF and EF-S mounts at 44 mm.
