*We recommend that the SD card that came with the camera be used for all firmware updates. If you are using a new SD card that is over 32GB it will need to be formatted by your camera before it can be used. To format a new SD card, insert the card into your camera and follow the formatting prompts on the LCD screen before you start the firmware upgrade process.
