Wow there are already some beta versions! Incredible.

Installed latest one, tried to understand menu but failed.

Tell me, can i control aperture and iso in video mode, or its not implemented yet? Tried in expo mode to press "set" several time to have 3200 iso but no change on screen.

Apperture was on 0.0 and its impossible to change.

p.s. any theoretical possibility for 30fps mode in 1080?

No manual controls in video mode yet...as many have previously mentioned.
Same goes for 30fps.

What's the difference between Coutts and Alins version?
If I downloaded the latest version from here (http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/500D) it will contain all features from all different developers?
Thanks!

I'm very impressed with the sudden development of the mod but I'm surprised that there is so  much interest in enhancing the features of the poor camcorder aspects of the 500D.

I bought the 500D as a still camera; I have almost no interest in using the camera as a reasonable quality camcorder - I can/would have bought a more appropriate alternative for less to compliment this model if that was a concern.

I'd prefer the development of the mod to concentrate on enhancing the primary purpose of the D-SLR.

I agree regarding photo-mode - I have no regrets with buying the 500D in performance terms as a still camera but I feel let down by the lack of on-going development via firmware updates, adding extra features such as the time-lapse facility and no doubt some others that have appeared in models released not much later such as the 550D and now the 600D.

Obviously the hardware differences such as the higher resolution sensor are distinct but there are some software features that could be aded easily by Canon - they release new models forcing expensive hardware changes opposed to offering existing (and typically loyal) users, willing to compromise in the short term, an opportunity to benefit from ongoing software development that isn't specifically tied to the new hardware.

@Canon_let_down_again
I used a 500D to record a full-lenght movie. Better focus on fixing the video than adding features of bridge cameras (such as HDR or Panoramic).
All that things you can fix them by software easily, but explain me hoy do you can fix an aperture or the shutter speed with any program.
I don't agree with you, the primary pourpose of an DSLR is RAW photo with manual settings (and change objective, for sure), and it's done.
