I haven't checked in a few days but a "nightly build " added RAW Histo 
and RAW Zebra!!!!!
(pre-alpha)
Only cam to date with REAL RAW histo has a a red dot.
Histo on all Canyon Cams has been  from a JPEG!!!!!  So with Raw Zebra 
one can see where
in the image it is clipped--if it is clipped in that, the data is gone.

Along with this has Auto ETTR-----automatically (with adjustable 
parameters) expose to the right based on analysis of the true raw data 
coming off the sensor. In manual mode, you set ISO, Aperture  and  SS, 
ML will determine the optimum ISO and shutter speed needed to maximize 
the S/N ratio without clipping any highlights. You can set a minimum 
shutter speed you do not want to go below, you can also set it to allow 
a percentage of clipping in each channel if you desire.  That is from a 
very very cursory look at it while at work.

Audio notes can be added to images by hitting set button, but not 
ported to all cams.
With a pre alpha version of ML  the 50D can shoot 14 bit RAW video and 
the cam doesn't shoot any video w/o ML AFAIK!!  This group is amazing.

Some of this has been ported to 5Dclassic but I haven't checked to see 
if it is a stable release
in awhile.   Might want to wait a bit any  bugs to be ironed out.

Canyon should hire them.  There seems to be a possible weird 
understanding that if the hackers leave the flagship models alone, they 
won't try to block the hacks like Panny.   One would bet  they  will 
co-opt some of these features for future firmware/models.

Lightmeter, schmightmeter, use ETTR direct from sensor data.

  I Believe in magic, Mike
