K5-II update

Tried updateing filmware useing SD card.Told to press menu button as switch on camera comes up Pentax K5-ii version 1 then goes to normal mode?
Any advice appreciated thanks.

Have you read and understood the instructions?

I'm guessing you've copied the .EXE file to the SD card. You need to run it on a PC to extract the .bin file and put that .bin in the root folder of your SD card.

Put SD card in camera, press and hold menu button while switching power on.

The camera will check its installed version against the version on the SD card and you'll have an option to choose whether or not to update it.

When you run the .exe save the .bin file somewhere other than in downloads. I assign a folder in documents to it, and delete the old updates as necessary.

If you have a problem with the .exe file the .zip file will work on Windows too - but you have to extract the .bin from it then. Most Windows machines will do that automatically.

Then, as Peter says copy the .bin file to the SD card root directory, so straight to the card not into the DCIM file on the card.

Thanks both I will have another go armed with your advice.
I appreciate your help.
