    Firmware Version 1.0.2 incorporates the following fix:

    1. Corrects a PTP communications vulnerability. Firmware Version 1.0.2 is for cameras with firmware up to Version 1.0.1. If the camera's firmware is already Version 1.0.2, it is not necessary to update the firmware. When updating the firmware of the camera, please review the instructions thoroughly before you download the firmware. Q&A: Preparations for a firmwar​e update: After the downloaded compressed file (.dmg file) is extracted, a firmware folder is created.
    • Extracting the downloaded file: The downloaded folder is automatically extracted, and a firmware folder is created. If the download folder cannot be automatically extracted, double-click the folder. The extracted folder contains the firmware (File name: M5_102.FI2, File size: 12,816,544 byte​s) and instructions on the firmware update procedures (a PDF file in five languages: Japanese, English, French, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese). Before starting the firmware update operations, please confirm the contents of the download, and carefully read through the firmware update procedures. (The following is the history of past firmware updates) Changes in Version 1.0.1:
    1. Corrects a phenomenon in which, when the playback grid is set to "6x4", and a vertical image is displayed, or a horizontal image is rotated to be displayed vertically, the grid does not display correctly.
    2. In languages other than Japanese, the phrase "no. of shots" has been corrected to "value" in the "Time-lapse movie settings > Interval/Shots" setting screen.
