The reason i can imagine it was pulled is because someone might have released it a bit too early, earlier than planned and then before to many users downloaded it they pulled the firmware. It's really funny how people think their camera will explode or something bad will happen just because they updated the firmware that was pulled off. What ever comes out will have to have a different name (1.2.6?) because I don't believe you can reinstall a 1.2.5 over a 1.2.5 (despite their being different code).Įxactly.

So, knowing Canon doesn't want us to have it should be good enough for most to not install it even if it seems to be working fine on the 7D's where people had grabbed it.

There was a reason 1.2.4 never saw the light of day and a reason why Canon pulled 1.2.5 off the sites. Well, that could be a possible explanation We will just have to wait to see what the outcome is. (We have confirmed that even if this problem occurs, the camera firmware update has been carried out normally, so the camera can be used as is even after using EOS Utility for the firmware update.)/

Fixes a malfunction with the firmware update function (Mac version)įixes a malfunction that when updating the camera firmware, EU cannot quit after copying the firmware from a Mac PC to a memory card in the camera through USB connection. So perhaps there was a problem with EOS Utility rather than the firmware?Ĩ. I have just noticed that EOS Utility has been updated and there is mention of an improvement in transferring

Looks like there may have been a slight hiccup in the firmware and they have pulled it before too many install it? Sorry, we were not able to find any downloads that match your search criteriaĪll I have found is an update to DPP to 3.10.1 If I do a search on the Canon UK website for 7D firmware I get this:

If you do a Google for the 1.2.5 7D firmware it finds a Canon UK page, but that page returns an error. It would appear that Canon have removed it from there sites?
