These cameras have an fx-cmos image sensor with 24.5 megapixels on board and are suitable for lenses with a Nikon Z mount. The firmware can be installed from a Windows or macOS machine and is approximately 28MB in size. The list of changes for this update is as follows:

Changes from “C” Firmware Version 3.12 to 3.20
