40D firware update

Just received a mail

Firmware update Version 1.1.1 incorporates the following fixes and improvements.

  1. Fixes a malfunction that in rare occurrence causes a low battery indication to be displayed when using the EF 85mm F1.2L II USM lens. Depending on the battery check timing of the camera, the battery level displayed on the camera's LCD data panel may shows Battery will be exhausted soon or Battery must be recharged, even though the battery capacity is sufficient.
  2. Fixes a malfunction that in rare occurrence causes an Err 06 Self Cleaning Sensor malfunction to appear on the camera's LCD monitor and LCD data panel, even when the Self Cleaning Sensor Unit is operating normally. This message may appear depending on the timing of when the camera is switch to the ON position.
  3. Fixes a malfunction that prevents correct colors from being printed when direct printing. RAW images captured using the camera's custom Picture Styles (Emerald, etc.), which have been downloaded from Canon's Web site and registered under User Def. 2 or User Def. 3.
  4. Modifies the level of subject brightness that causes the AF-assist beam to fire when using an external Speedlite.
  5. Enables an external flash connected to the camera's synchro terminal to fire even when the camera's built-in flash is popped up.

Hi! Thanks for your comment in Amber's blog. I think the recent why she chose the bathroom is because since last time when she used to have false pregnancy after each heat she had every year, she would dig in the same bathroom near the toilet seat corner & plus, she gave birth in there too. Well, just yesterday, she went upstairs into my Mom's bedroom & dug under the bed & actually crawled under it too. I think she wants to move upstairs now but until I realized that because the bathroom door is left open, she doesn't seem comfortable in there anymore & the two lamp are always left on. I switched off one of the lamp & closed the door last evening & she dozed off happily. I think she's looking for a dark place & ofcourse a very private one too like under the bed but we're not allowing her to use that place because that's just a very inappropriate place to put the puppies eventhough yes, it's very very private & very dark. So I don't think it's more about the warmness of the place. The Crib was actually quite warm but not as warm as the bathroom ofcourse. So now we close the door often so that she & her pups can have some privacy.
