Canon has from its website removed the firmware updates for the older camera models. If you want to update your old camera you will need to find the firmware somewhere else. Webpages like EOScard and Softpedia have older firmware updates from Canon. You can also browse old Canon links with Archive.org.
But how do you know if the file you download from another webpage is legit or not?
SHA256 checksum
SHA stands for ”Secure Hash Algorithm”, and 256 is the number of bits used. The checksum is a cryptographic signature and with the string you can compare and detect if a file has been comprised while downloading it from the Internet.
Too hard to use a Terminal in Linux or PowerShell in Windows? Use an online tool. Compare the SHA256 checksum you get with the checksum below in the list. The list is generated from firmware updates downloaded from Canon.
EOS R and EOS Ra share the same firmware 1.8.0 and there are two versions of 1.8.0. Unclear why the new one didn’t get the name 1.8.1.
