A small feature and stability update.

How to update

  1. Download firmware 1.5.0 for the EOS R50 from Canon's page (button below) and unzip it. The folder also has Canon's own instructions (PDF).
  2. Format a memory card in the camera (this erases the card), then copy only the firmware file (R5015000.FIR) to the top level of the card, not inside a folder.
  3. Insert a fully charged battery and the card, and turn the camera on.
  4. Open the camera's setup menu, choose Firmware, and follow the screen to start the update.
  5. Don't turn the camera off, open the card or battery door, or press buttons until the camera says the update is complete.
