The "Firmware Uploader Software for the E800 Ver.1.1" is a computer
program that updates the firmware in your COOLPIX 800 (E-800). The
firmware is a program, which runs inside the camera and controls its
operation. By running the Uploader Software you will install the new firmware

The process of transferring the new firmware from the computer to the
camera is sometimes called "Uploading," "Upgrading" or "Updating" the
firmware.
