It's available for "English | Spanish | French | Japanese | Chinese" so I'd assumed, like Sony, it is not region specific.

I was wondering if there is any difference myself as it's available on the U.S. and Aus/NZ site but not the UK or Canon Europe site.

UK users on another forum have installed it, you just need to change the date/time to London as usual.

Files from the US and the UK are identical....

Canon used to use a central Japan website for firmware updates until recently, so I'd be surprised if they started releasing region specific ones.

Apart from perhaps a very low risk of bricking the camera, can anyone think of any reason not to install the new firmware ?

I'm wondering if it will do anything slightly annoying like reset the shutter count or image numbering ?

Cheers,

Can't think of any obvious downsides.... doesn't seem to be any mad panic due to any major bugs so far...
