Hello Folks,

I bought the 'mythical' ES-E1 cable for my Canon 1V recently, knowing that it came without the software disk. I had previously downloaded 'the software' and thought that I was finally all set to go. However, I have recently discovered that the software I downloaded was the updated version, and needs the original disk present to be installed. I guess this operates in a similar way to the Canon printer software updates - the original disk is needed simply to authenticate the original purchase.

Does anyone have an original disk that I could make an image of? I don't think it will be possible to obtain this from Canon, and although I wouldn't normally copy software, I think this is so out of date it surely shouldn't cause a problem!

Best regards,
RoyM

I've been looking for one of them for years.
Good luck you may need it.
You could maybe contact canon directly they may have one laying around.
 
Thought the ES-E1 was a pretty common item? You can almost always find it on eBay amongst other places.

I saw the cable going for only US$19.90 end of last year.

I do have the original set, but not to sure about making an image of the disk. If you leave the instructions here, I can make one and put it on dropbox for you.

Cheers,
