- Download F-KM170-V11W.exe to the folder created in Step 1.

- Run F-KM170-V11W.exe to extract the firmware to a sub-folder in the new folder. The resulting file and folder hierarchy is shown below:

firmware (the sub-folder containing the firmware)

firmware.bin (the camera firmware, located in the “firmware” folder)

- Using a card slot or card reader, copy the “firmware” folder to a memory card that has been formatted in the camera.

- Insert the memory card into the camera and turn the camera on.

- Select Camera settings > Firmware version in the (setup) menu and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the update. The camera will turn off automatically when the update is complete.

About Digital Camera Firmware:

Updating to a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your camera can improve the device’s overall performance and stability, resolve various issues, and add support for newly developed features or enhance existing ones.

On the other hand, downgrading the camera’s firmware can recover its functionality in the unlikely event the currently installed version is faulty or the device’s performance dropped after an upgrade. However, bear in mind that applying an earlier build might not always be possible.

It is recommended that changing the camera’s firmware be performed when the new release resolves an issue that your device has been encountering, or adds a new feature (or enhances an existing one) that could prove useful for you.

This process isn’t intended to be destructive, but still, it’s best to save all your personal data and configurations before applying a different firmware. ...
