C70 firmware update (12-08-22) Where can I locate

MisterRicky — Thu, 08 Dec 2022 13:27:10 GMT

Good morning!

I'm trying to find the download page for the C70 firmware update that was supposed to be available today. I'm new to the site, so am I to early or has it become available yet? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you! I saw on my Facebook forum, someone posted the European link as well. Wanted to make sure it was authentic. Again, thank you!

It is. It was announced on Canon Rumors about a month ago. The C70 is a great device, now even more well-rounded with these latest additions.

Is there a reason why the firmware isn't visible when I select Windows > Windows 10 (x64)?

Possible that the web site was still loading. When I first went to the support page and and selected macOS 13, there were no items listed either. I hadn't noticed at the time though that the page was still loading. Once it did, selecting other OS versions (to include Windows 10 (x64)) worked a-ok.
