Caution! I recently downloaded firmware for the Zfc from Nikon. When I hit the upload, the camera shut itself down and would not restart. Nikon support told me it would have to be sent to a service center. I mailed it, at my expense. After a week, I got an estimate for repair. Almost $ 300.00. This camera was just over one year old, purchased directly from Nikon and had less than 1,000 actuations. The camera worked perfectly until I tried to upload the firmware. Note - I own over two dozen Nikon cameras including four Z series and I am very familiar with the update procedure. Has anyone else had this problem? Got the camera back. They had to replace the Main PCB. Less than 1,000 clicks and worked perfectly until I tried to update.

Nice demonstration! Thank you! Do you know if I can update directly to the latest firmware without the previous versions? Thank you in advance!

The guidance on their home page says "This update includes all changes made in previous updates", so it sounds to me like the latest version include all changes. But the safe route I guess is to go one version at a time.

I just bought a Nikon Z30 but it only has the Chinese language. Is there a solution?
@frederikboving

There is: kzitem.info/news/bejne/rntv2GV-naSippgsi=hQxvNGswVMrQy2HU but you will need to navigate there with Chinese menus! My best suggestion is to count the menu items in the English manual and then use that info to navigate the Chinese menus!

My NIKON Z30 is new, I tried to update its firmware but there was no option shows that it can be updated?

Try the following: - Make sure the file is unpacked - Make sure the file is in the root of the SD card - Check if you have got the latest version already Hope this helps. If you cannot select the update menu item, it can be because the battery is not sufficiently charged.

What if i connect my camera to pc trough usb and then put in update bin file,then remove usb cable and install,can i do like that or i must have card reader !? Thx

Hi, I think that will work yes. I have not tried it myself, but the important thing is that the update file is in the root of the SD card. I think it is less important how it gets there. I think the camera looks for the file during startup so turn the camera off and on again after you have installed the file and removed the usb cable. All the best!

Sorry to hear that! If the file is unzipped and put in the right location it should work, but if you've tried everything then it's hard to suggest more to do or try.

It's important that you copy the unpackaged file. The name ends on ".bin". And you need to put it in the root folder on the SD card. If you have then option to delete firmware update files, then it sounds to me like you are trying to upgrade to the same version as your camera currently has.

@@frederikboving I have the same problem. I did it good I think, put the .bin in the root but my Z50 only give me the delete option. The thing is my actual version is 2.02 and the downloaded one is 2.50... I tried with two SD cards, and put a full charged battery. The only explanation could be that my laptop is on Linux but that doesn't look like a problem to extract the .bin so I don't know.. Thanks anyway for the video :)

Yes, sorry. You need somehow to download the file and unpack it and get it transferred to the SD card. Maybe it can be done without a laptop, but unfortunately I do not know the steps involved.
