Firmware is the software program which runs within the camera and controls its operation.
As new firmware versions become available, you can access them from the Kodak Web
site (http://www.kodak.com). You should check the Web site to see if new firmware is
available.
Before you update the firmware on your camera, you will first need to install it on
your computer.

Digital Cameras, DCS 500 Series, and look for download instructions.
