2. How to restore the firmware
1. Prepare the firmware restoration program and change its name as follows;
"lbn873-gm05.bin"
NOTE: This software and procedure automatically restores the firmware even if the firmware belongs
to a wrong model code. Make sure to use the correct software for the correct model.
2. Copy the above file to the root directory in the memory card.
3. Insert the memory card into the camera.
4. Set a fully charged battery in the camera.
NOTE: This software and procedure automatically restores the firmware even if the battery capacity of
the camera is low. Make sure to use a fully charged battery to prevent the danger of power
down during firmware restoration.
5. Turn the power on while pressing the [shutter release] button.
If the power does not turn on only by pressing the power button, insert the battery while holding the
[shutter release] button depressed.
• The LED next to the optical viewfinder changes from "green/red blinking", "green blinking" to "green steady".
NOTE: This software and procedure automatically restores the firmware even if the firmware belongs
to a wrong model code. Make sure to use the correct software for the correct mode.
6. When the LED becomes "green steady", the firmware restoration is finished.
Remove the battery and the memory card, and then turn the power off.
7. Turn the power on again while holding [DISP] and [UPPER] depressed.
Check the model name and the program version (PR:) in the opening screen of the test menu.

system area.
"DISP+ UPPER + PW ON"
INITIAL"
NOTE: After SYSTEM INITIAL is performed, "SYSTEM ERROR" appears when the power is turned
on again.
9. Write the latest firmware.
After the firmware is written, check the model name and the program version (PR:) in the opening
screen of the test menu.

image. Check also that the colors in the images are not too bright or two dark.
