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 That does seem somewhat clumsy for a firmware update. So far I have only had to do 2 FW updates on my Nikon DSLRs and 3 FW updates on my Fujifilm X-E2 and a few on some of my Fujicon XF lenses. None of those required having the camera involved with the internet. The appropriate FW update is downloaded from the support site and loaded onto a formatted CF (Nikon) or SD(Fuji) card which is loaded into the camera, and then the FW update procedure is followed from the camera menus. All very quick and simple, with no annoying Sony type frustration or kludge fixes. -- Regards, Savageduck |
