WTF is wrong with Sony? (Firmware updating)

And here I thought Olympus's stupid "You have to be connected to the internet to update" was the worst thing. That hasn't been much of an issue since internet connections became much more reliable, but it's still annoying. https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/58187259 It does sound as if the guy isn't doing the update correctly, doesn't it? Otherwise there would surely be dozens of complaints. But you would hope that Sony's built-in firmware checked the update a little more thoroughly before applying it.... -- Cheers, David Web: http://www.satsignal.eu |

Reads like the connection between the computer and camera is flawed, and/ or that the program that uploads the FW to the camera ain't compatible with either or both. Merely guessing though... -- teleportation kills |

[] There may be dozens, hundreds we don't hear about. One Christmas I saw a BARREL of bricked Olympus DSLR's at a dealer, going back because of glitches with software updating. If that's a significant percentage, there's clearly an issue to be resolved. Could be in the firmware, the hardware, or even faulty institutions. -- Cheers, David Web: http://www.satsignal.eu |
