Re: WB850F How to install new Firmware?

But surely, even if the chance of it not working and frying the camera is tiny, isn't better to do it the way that Samsung advises. Weren't people having problems updating TL500 firmware on the EX1 (or vice versa) and having problems?

Early FW was different for TL500 and EX1, then later it was converged, see this chart:

This chart was compiled before FW ver 110271 was released but it is only for cameras that have had an unknown hardware component replaced. There was much controvercy when this last one was released because all previous FW had to be installed using a SD card and contained 5 files, but 110271 only had 2 files and samsung said it must be installed using intelli-studio, but if you try to use intelli-studio it says the EX1 is not supported. Try figuring that one out!!!
