Zenmuse 5D...two different versions?

[jimska]

Are there two versions of the 5D Zenmuse, one for the 5D mk2 and one for the 5D mk3?

I don't know but I have a MKIII and a MKII and they both fit into the zen use fine. I did order specifically for the MKIII and that balances better is all I can tell so far. Only 6 flights into it though...

I am not entirely sure where it is different, but I think it may be something to do with the infrared shutter control.
I only have the mk3, and do not know where it is located on the mk2.
You would think that this would have been properly explained on the DJI web site.

I have been having a hard time getting that part of it to work. I can roll/stop video which is the main thing but I can not snap a picture. I find the 5D desktop assistant really limited.

Just spoke with my reseller and I should have mine tomorrow, so will be able to test it out.
He said that they tried taking a picture and it did work though, the only thing that will not work is the reset (the same problem as the GH3 Zen) but that should be fixed in a future firmware update.
