lol, ignore my last post! They seem to be already present! I've just never used them in that way  My bad!

Does anyone know if this new v2 firmware will work with the 'barcode' version of the 7D?  We have one of each, and use the barcode one with the bluetooth adapter and a bluetooth barcode reader to read id badges.

Looked around the various reports, but seen no mention of it.

So, it's August now  Where can I download V2?

Been using v2 for a few weeks now and I *LOVE* the longer burst for action and sports. Haven't played around much with any of the other "new" features but I've had 0 problems with this update, very nice.  Yay Canon!

The burst rate is amazing for sure... I tried mine out after the upgrade, and it took 30 (!!) RAW bursts before slowing.
