The original firmware on the 7D (1.0.7) has not given me any problems, but it seems some others have. Canon has addressed these issues with their latest firmware update 1.0.9. It's good to see Canon appears to be on top of things early on.

The following three things have been addressed in the new firmware:

  1. Improves AF accuracy during Live View shooting.
  2. Corrects a phenomenon where in rare instances, movie images shot by the camera may exhibit abnormal colors.
  3. Corrects a phenomenon that at certain timings, the shutter cannot be released when the camera's built-in flash or an external Speedlite is used for shooting.

You can find the firmware for download at Canon's Website.
