Can u put the file directly to the camera then update?

@snapiksz I would put the card in my camera and format it first.

Do you have to update firmware sequentially? I have version 2.0.3 and I want to go to 2.1.1. Is that ok to do?

Is the firmware in the memory card or in the camera after the update process is complete?

[TutorVidCom]

@2Cool4Games the firmware is on the camera. You can format the memory card after the firmware update is complete

@TutorVidCom Thanks. Very fast update process.

Thank you very much. I was worried about this and your video here helped me update my Canon 60D easily and without a problem... Thanks again !

@Thomasmollo Yeah, it is really simple if you have done it before but I was nervous the first time I tried it as well. Glad the tutorial helped.

@turboyz12 Yeah, it got pretty beat up when I used the camera in a cave with sharp rocks. It was pretty new then so it got worked in quickly
