[QUOTE="darbebo, post: 42059, member: 8627"] Hello, Ordered my D3100 through amazon, should arrive tomorrow. problem though, is, that it is like a computer, i believe this thing needs a firm ware update. 2 Questions related to this: 1. How do i check which version it is currently on after i turn it on? 2. Do I need to update to the newest firmware? and if so, what is it? As far as firmware goes, i know in certain products, some firmwares actually make things worse. So that's why question # 2 is there, should i even bother with an update or should i just use it as is? Next: Is there anything that I should watch out for / do when i first use it? You know what i mean, like the first time you buy a new fridge you have to run the water filter/ice cube making machine on for days to rinse out the bad water, etc.... or like you have to heat the a grill for a little bit after you're done grilling to burn everything to ash and then use a brass brush to clean it? You know...those "tricks" Thank you! [/QUOTE]
