400plus

A firmware hack for the Canon 400D / XTi digital camera

About

400plus is a free firmware enhancement software which offers additional functionality and capabilities for your Canon 400D/XTi camera, in both a non-destructive and non-permanent way. It works by loading into your camera's memory automatically upon boot-up to enhance the native camera firmware; but it is not a permanent firmware upgrade, and can easily be removed.

This software is similar to what Magic Lantern is for the DryOS cameras, though it is designed specifically for the Canon 400D/XTi and will not work with other camera models. For info about porting 400plus to your camera, please visit the Magic Lantern wiki.
