I just bought a pristine 1Ds MkII from an eBay seller out of NM.
The camera's firmware is 1.1.1 and I'd really like to upgrade the firmware to 1.1.6 so that the camera will recognize larger capacity memory cards.
I've searched far and wide. Those searches led me to a few links for the firmware but those links are no longer active. If you can provide me with an active link where I can download firmware version 1.1.6 I would be most grateful.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Sure. PM sent.
Make sure that the file has the right SHA256 checksum. If the checksum is right the file is intact.You can compare here from my page https://kameratrollet.se/use-sha256-checksum-to-verify-canon-firmware-updates/

Greetings,
Since the Camera was released in 2005, Canon USA no longer hosts firmware for the camera.
Canon Support for EOS-1Ds Mark II | Canon U.S.A., Inc.
You can try support, but not sure if they can provide it. Also take a look at Canon HK. Someone here may have it to share also.

Hello Peter,
Happy New Year!
I have just got an EOS 1Ds mark 2, but found it has an older firmware version when trying to use a >2GB card.
Could you please help with f/w v1.1.6?
Thank you so much in advance!

Rekindling an old post, but on the off-chance that you're still active, and still in possession of v1.1.6, my 1Dsii and I would be very grateful if you could share it with us!
Thanks,
Tim

Hi Peter! Just got a used 1Ds II and I too would like to update the firmware on it. Hope you can help me out!

Sure, just read the comment above.

I thank you for your assistance. However all the links that I found even on Canon USA, Europe and HK are inactive or the page no longer exists.
The camera will read a 32GB SanDisk Extreme Pro CF card with out issue. I really don't need the images written to two cards simultaneously.
So the one 32GB CF card will have to do.
