5D firmware upgrade

greyhoundrick — Tue, 27 Jun 2023 22:33:59 GMT

Hello,

Can you tell me if its possible to upgrade the firmware on a Canon 5D from 1.1.0 to 1.1.1?

Also, is this a rather minor upgrade that maybe I should ignore in order to not risk a bad outcome from a possibly unsubstantiated link?

Thank you very much for any information you can share!

Best to you,

Rick

Which specific version of the 5D do you have? original, II, III or Mark IV?

The firmware page should state what the firmware provides. Would be up to you to see if any of the improvements would be worth it.

Thanks for the input, appreciate it!

I have the 5D Original and see that its not supported by Canon any longer. Ive seen a few site locations where they offer the 1.1.1 firmware update. Wasnt sure if anyone has had any success with a particular site or if it might not be worth the risk.

My camera works pretty well so maybe leave good enough alone?

Thanks,

Rick
