Canon 5D II 2.0.8 Firmware - Anyone Got a copy?

[501cards]

I am trying to find a download of the previous Canon 5D II Firmware 2.0.8

Its been pulled from the Canon downlaod site as far as I can tell, and I want to roll back a body from 2.0.9 but can't find my backup copy,

Anybody know where it can be downloaded or point me in the direction of a copy it would be appreciated.

I wasn't aware you could install a previous firmware version

Yep you can rollback to any version as long as you have a copy of it. (Which in this case I don't ) Doh!

Be careful, it isn't always possible to roll back to the old version although the accompanying installation notes usually warn when it's going to be a problem.

You could always have a think about Magic Lantern ( http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Magic_Lantern_Firmware_Wiki )

Cheers, but I am not into the video side of it, and it seems to make a few of the still features a bit flaky, so something I am trying to avoid..

Many Thanks, you sir are a gentleman and a scholar.

Downloaded and done. Cheers.

Very glad I could help!

I'm increasingly working on the video side, and I've been keeping the previous firmware versions as a basis for possible use of the Magic Lantern software, which naturally lags behind.

Cheers.
