EOS M50 Firmware Update, Version 1.1.0
4

Firmware Version 1.1.0 incorporates the following enhancement and fixes:

1. Enables NFC connection with smartphones running Android 10 operating system.

*For Android running v6.0 or later, use Camera Connect v2.7.10 or later.

*For Android running v5.0 or older, use a connection method other than NFC.

2. Fixes a phenomenon where, in rare cases, the camera may not autofocus at the edges of the image area.

3. Fixes a phenomenon in which, when using a Web service, if a camera is registered that is the same model as a camera that had already been previously registered, the registration data of the previously registered camera is overwritten.

4. Fixes a phenomenon in which, with [Display settings: Manual/Screen] set, when the camera's LCD screen is closed, after connecting to EOS Utility, the Remote Live View window is not displayed correctly in some cases.

This firmware update is for cameras equipped with firmware up to Version 1.0.3. If the camera's firmware is already Version 1.1.0, this update is unnecessary.When updating the firmware of your camera, please first review the instructions thoroughly.

I tested the NFC connection an it works on my Android 10 phone.  Great

when i tested the autofocus thing i didn't see anything different .

I wonder what else they changed, the version number jump usually means something more than just a little bug fix. Till now we got original firmware->1.02->1.03 and now suddenly 1.1.0. Anyone notice a difference in autofocus performance?

I tested it on both of my cameras.

Interesting that DPR has no mention in its News of the upgrade.

THERE IS NO M50 MK II - Just Firmware?

Maybe if enough people make noise about M50 Mark II, you might actually get a firmware update for the old M50...worth a shot!

Yes after doing this,,,

If the firmware update files are saved in the subfolder of the SD card, they will not be recognized by the camera.

first copy the CCF19.DAT file to the root directory of the SD card, and then copy the CCF19xxx.FIR file.
