14 DAY TRIAL // Ricoh, the company that recently acquired all shares from Pentax Imaging Corp., has just made available more firmware versions targeted at its K series DSLR cameras.
To be clearer, after version 1.05 developed for the K-5II and K-5IIs devices, Ricoh has outed versions 1.01 for its K-50 and K-500, 1.04 for the K-01 camera, and 1.05 for the K-30 unit.
In addition to that, versions 1.14, 1.15, and 1.31, compatible with the K-R, K-5, and 645D DSLR devices, respectively, have been also released.
The changes made in these new versions are the same as for the K-5II and K-5IIs, namely stability improvements for increased performance, and optimized AF contrast for HD PENTAX-DA Limited Edition lenses.
As for installing the firmware, download the camera-related package, copy the firmware file from within the archive onto a formatted memory card, insert it into the camera, and turn on the camera while pressing the “Menu” button.
