Eh? I've updated my Canon mirrorless camera firmware multiple times in
the last 3 years with official Canon updates. In fact, one of the
updates improved the auto eye tracking of the camera significantly.
I don't think we are disagreeing? Magic Lantern is an open source
alternative firmware for older Canon dSLR's. There's no such equivalent
for newer mirrorless cameras from Canon (or any other manufacturer for
that matter) and the reasons for that (IMO) are several - newer firmware
is more locked down, the firmware updates continue to add enough
features to keep folks happy and not looking for alternatives, folks who
still use dedicated cameras (like yourself) are not interested in
potentially bricking their cameras, the hacker community has moved on etc.
