Why Should I Update?
We buy these expensive camera bodies and lenses, but we forget to update our firmware. Can you imagine not updating your computer or Smart/Stupid phone? Of course not.
Those firmware updates can provide you with added features. Each firmware update for us has made the camera work even better than before, given us more options, and corrected/enhanced some items.
Arnie and I have had Nikons for a long time. They work for us. Their link to firmware updates is at https://support.nikonusa.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/13783/~/current-firmware-downloads-available-for-nikon-products
Others prefer Canon, Leica, Hasselblad, Panasonic, etc., etc.
Alas, the manufacturers of these expensive little-pixel processors do not let their loyal public know about the latest updates. So, here are some I could find … in alphabetical order … but note the images are just to indicate the brand:

Of course, there are others, but for those who own cameras other than the brands listed here, Google “[your brand] camera firmware update” for links.
