CAUTION:This firmware update requires two files. Firstly, download and save those files on a SD/SDHC/SDXC card. Secondly, start updating the firmware with the saved data in the card.
Once you finish the firmware update of DP1 Merrill to Ver. 1.03 or of DP2 Merrill to Ver. 1.04, or if your camera is DP3 Merrill, it is necessary to install Sigma Photo Pro 5.5 to develop the RAW images.
