Firmware Version 1.0.8 incorporates the following fixes.

  1. Fixes a phenomenon in which the set aperture moves unexpectedly when shooting movies in manual exposure mode using some Canon lenses (such as macro lenses).
  2. Corrects misspellings in the French and Spanish menus for applicable products.

And at the other end, the Rebel T2i also gets bumped up to firmware version 1.08:

Firmware Version 1.0.8 incorporates the following fixes.

  1. Fixes a phenomenon in which the set aperture moves unexpectedly when shooting movies in manual exposure mode using some Canon lenses (such as macro lenses).

If you’ve never done a firmware update before, make sure you read through all the instructions carefully, as it is possible to bork your camera. Just, you know, so you know.
