[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 97831, member: 9521"] Hi Mini Me - it's not nearly as hard as it seems. You do need to have a card reader attached to your computer in order to pull this off. Here is a cut-n-paste from Nikon's website and is the instructions for the D800 firmware update. When you go to Nikon's website to get your firmware update you'll see similar instructions only the name of the camera will match your camera [COLOR=#333333][FONT=Arial][B]Basic Upgrade instructions: for detailed instructions, see pdf files below. Please read carefully before proceeding.[/B][/FONT][/COLOR][LIST=1] [*]Create a new folder with an appropriate name on your computer. [*]Choose the correct download below for the computer system you are using, and save the download to the folder created in step 1. [*]Run the downloaded file to create the folder titled [B]D800Update[/B], containing the following file: [B]D800_0101.bin[/B] [*]Format an approved memory card in the camera, then remove . [*]Copy the [B]D800_0101.bin[/B] file to the top level of the memory card using a memory card reader or similar device, [B]do not[/B] copy the file into [B]any[/B]folder on the memory card. [*]Insert memory card into the cameras memory card slot, and switch on. [*]Select [B]Firmware Version[/B] from the setup menu and [B]follow the instructions displayed[/B] to upgrade the camera's firmware. [*][B]DO NOT[/B] switch off the camera at any time during the update, doing so may result in the need for service. [*]After the upgrade is complete, trun the camera off and remove the memory card. [*]Check the cameras firmware version to be sure it completed. [*]Format memory card in camera for use. [*]* - Firmware updates can be performed for you at authorized Nikon service centers.
