My K1 !! will not update
Downloaded the latest firmware update and put in the camera and nothing happens.

Thanks
Did you follow the steps exactly?

Did you hold the menu button in and then switch the camera on? The update should then download to camera. One word of warnin though, you will need the battery to be fully charged!!

Are you really are trying to brick your camera? Fortunately the updates have different file names to prevent your mistake.

What you need are lenses, more lenses, bigger lenses, better lenses, faster lenses, vintage lenses and when you have these, your pictures will be perfect!
The firmware is downloaded in a Zip file. Did you extract it prior to attempting the update:
"Provide a formatted SD memory card for the update software.
The download file is self-extracting. The following file is extracted. Fwdc###b.bin:"
