5D firmware upgrade 1.1.1 won't work with 4GB CF card

I downloaded the new v1.1.1 firmware upgrade for the 5D from Canon's site &

attempted to upgrade my body from 1.0.5 but got an error message. Tried three

times, finally decided to try another CF card. First one (that failed) was a 4

GB Sandisk Extreme III. I then tried with a 2 GB Sandisk Ultra II and upgrade

worked fine. Will be interesting to see if others have similar results.

I used a 4 GB Sandisk Utra II and it worked fine the first time. Maybe your card has a glitch.

 

My LCD lost the warm (yellowish tint) and looks neutral now. This benefit isn't mentioned in

the PDF. Did your tint change?

Sometimes the light’s all shining on me. Other times I can barely see.

Can't say my LCD tint changed. If it did, it would be very, very minor. I did handle two 5Ds, though, and the first one had the yellowish LCD tint while the second one didn't. I still have the second one and just did the upgrade. It would be more toward the bluish and still is. Perhaps it is the particular batch.
