Casio has released a firmware updated, version 1.02, for its EX-Z600 camera. Version 1.02 now supports the new SDHC memory card format. The update also corrects freezing problems with the “Pattern 4” slideshow function.
“If firmware update installation is interrupted due to low battery power, your camera will no longer be able to operate,” says the Casio website. Casio does suggest replacing the camera with fresh batteries before installing the update.
The Casio firmware will also erase display messages in Russian. For Russian speaking users, Casio does not plan to release a Russian language update, states the website.
