Hi and welcome to the Forum.

Enjoy your new DA* lens, my partner really enjoys using it.

That's fine by me, see you Saturday.

For the money you cannot go wrong, works quite well and easily with a long lens. I used it for a year with the Bigma and was quite satisfied with the results.

Not a problem Technoblurb but I would not call it a "creative genius" more blood,sweat and tears.

I'm definitely OK for Saturday.
Plus another Forum member who follows me around.

There is a 30 day trial version of Lightroom 2. https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_lightroom

Personally I mainly use Lightroom 2, just like the way it works once you get used to it.

Hope this helps.

Updating Procedure

1. Provide a formated SD memory card for the update software (with at least
16MB of available memory space).
The downloaded file is self-extracting.
The following files are extracted.

Copy the above Firmware file [fwdc162b.bin] to the root directory in the SD card.
If your computer does not have a card slot, you can copy the firmware update file by inserting the SD card into your camera and then connecting the camera directly to your computer.
2. If the camera power is on, turn it off.
3. Insert the update SD card (prepared in step 1) into the camera and close card cover.
4. Turn the camera power on while pressing the MENU button.

"PROGRAM UPDATE". At the bottom of the LCD monitor,

CURRENT VERSION 1.00 / 1.10 / 1.11 / 1.20

will be displayed.
6. Press the four-way controller to select "YES" and press the "OK" button.
7. "UPDATING" appears on the LCD monitor and updating starts.
Please do not under any circumstances switch off the power before the update is completed.
It will take approximately 90 seconds to complete update.

9. Remove the update SD card from the camera.
10. To check the Firmware version in your camera, turn the camera on while pressing the MENU button.
