Canon has announced a firmware update (Version 1.1.0) for the EOS 5D Mark II that will allow for manual exposure when shooting movies amongst other improvements and fixes.
Firmware Version 1.1.0 incorporates the following improvements and fixes.
1. Includes a function to enable the manual exposure settings when shooting movies.
2. Disables the function of the depth-of-field preview button when images are played back or when the menu screen is displayed on the LCD panel.

- Digital Photo Professional software, version 3.6.1 or later (for Windows and Mac), can be used to automatically correct the peripheral illumination of RAW and JPEG images that were captured in the Peripheral illumination correction setting with cameras that have Firmware Version 1.0.7 or earlier.

5. Fixes incorrect indications on the Arabic, Romanian, Spanish, and Ukrainian menu screens.
6. Changes the battery information displayed on the camera when using the optional Battery Grip BG-E6.
Firmware Version 1.1.0 is for cameras with firmware up to Version 1.0.7. If the camera's firmware is already Version 1.1.0, it is not necessary to update the firmware.
