updating my firmware

12 years 2 months ago #199674 by Pixelchix
I was updating the firmware in my d300 and it would only update b. Will it hurt my camera with just b updated. How do I get the a to update too. I have both the a and b bin file on my flash card. What am I doing wrong??

( Maybe a silly question) Did you check to see if A needs an update, I just checked my D7000 and there is an update but it is just for B.

You will not be judged as a photographer by the pictures you take, but by the pictures you show.

Thanks for replying. It does say in the firmware version on my camera a-1.02 and b 1.10 Will it hurt it if I just run it with the b downloaded?

I just deleted the b upgrade off and then the a popped up for upgrade. It worked!!

The best way to do you Firmware updates is to do them one at a time on separate cards or to do them one at time then reformat the card and put the other one on. I used separate cards myself. Sometimes the cameras get confused if they see both on the same card.

That makes sense to do it that way. This is the first time I'd ever done it. Thank you for the tip
