Just download any of the OS X files, then just open the .dmg and put the file inside on an memory card and the camera does the rest. Nothing to do with OS.

Good point sir. And that makes your original question an excellent question. I guess we have to assume that their new lenses will have the latest firmware, but any new lens you buy isn’t necessarily new from the factory. Could just be previous stock.

Oh…then why would you need to send the lens in? The article says “All others will need to send their lens into Canon Service.”

Also sucks that it doesn’t work for those of us most up to date with Mac OS.

Is it software for the lens, or for the body? I assumed it was for the body.

If one purchases a new lens now, has the new firmware already been installed to the new 40mm lens?
