Tried to run some initial tests on the EOS R; unfortunately, this is all we've got:
The error screen looks just like on previous models, which is encouraging. The camera recognized there was a FIR file on the card, for the correct model, otherwise it would have printed "Update file cannot be found". The error message means it could not verify the checksum; Canon might have changed the FIR file format, or maybe also the encryption.
Edit: progress - apparently it doesn't like tiny FIR files, but otherwise itaccepts them:
Edit (February 2019): turns out it was just the decryption code locking up with some FIR files.
Encryption changed - we can no longer create FIR files for this camera.
Hi
I just bought a Canon R and I hope in the future to install a magic lantern firmware on it, but what wrote A1ex is not very encouraging...Is there still hope or will we never see ML on canon r?
Thanks
