Re: WB850F How to install new Firmware?

The manual says to use Intellistudio - Web Support - Update Firmware for the Connected Device. There may be a camera menu option for doing this but this does not seem to be mentioned in the manual.

It is the first time that I have a problem to install a firmware upgrade for a Samsung camera. I have 2 questions:
1. How can I check the version of the firmware of my cam?

Samsung's NX cameras don't show you the firmware version in the menu as other cameras do. If you attempt to do a firmware update (by placing firmware files on an SD card), the camera should show you the current firmware version as well as the firmware version on the SD card. This may even work if the firmware files are from an older version that the camera won't allow you to install.

2. Do I have to copy the unzipped files from my PC to a SD card to install the new firmware?

That's the way I always do it. I've never heard of any cameras that know how to use zipped archive files. I haven't used Samsung's Intelli-Studio software, so it's possible that there's another way to do the firmware update.
