Worth installing, especially if you shoot bursts.
How to update
- Check your version: turn the camera on, press MENU and choose [Firmware version] in the SETUP MENU. If it already shows the latest version, you don't need this update.
- Download the firmware file (Z6_3_0201.bin) from Nikon's page (button below) to your computer.
- With a card reader, copy it to the root (top level, not a folder) of a memory card formatted in the camera. The camera won't find it inside a folder.
- Put the card in the camera, choose [Firmware version] in the SETUP MENU and follow the screen.
- When it is done, turn the camera off, take the card out and check the new version.
Nikon's warning: during the update, attach only a Z-mount NIKKOR lens or the FTZ II / FTZ adapter, no other lens or adapter.
