Changes from Firmware Version 1.00 to 1.10
• Added support for linear manual focus control via the lens control ring. When an option other than [Non-linear] is selected for Custom Setting f9 [Focus ring rotation range] in the camera [CUSTOM SETTINGS MENU], rotating the lens control ring through the selected range will take focus from the minimum focus distance to infinity, regardless of how fast the ring is rotated. As of December 2022, [Focus ring rotation range] is available with the Z 9 (“C” firmware version 2.00 or later) and the Z 7II/Z 6II (“C” firmware version 1.40 or later).

Note:

Be aware if you have ii series cameras upload the bin files to one of the memory cards take out the other memory card for the update may not work, attach the proper lens every update!

for all of my 4 primes (24/35/50/85) I copied all bin-Files at once onto the card and made the updates just through changing lenses...no problem at all!

Fons, thank you for letting us know. My 35 and 85 are now up to date.

Stephan, thanks for the tip. It worked nicely.
