    Hi!
    There is a Z30 firmware update:

    Changes from “C” Firmware Version 1.00 to 1.10
    • Added support for the iOS edition of NX MobileAir. Use NX MobileAir version 1.1.3 or later.
    • Added support for MC-N10 remote grips.
    • Added support for the power zoom feature available on some lenses.
    • A red frame is now displayed around the monitor during video recording to indicate that recording is in progress.
    • The elapsed recording time is now displayed during video recording.
    • The camera will now focus with each shot taken using an ML-L7 if [AF-C] is selected for [Focus mode] and [Release] is selected for Custom Setting a1 [AF-C priority selection] in the [CUSTOM SETTINGS MENU].
    • Autofocus has been improved so that the focus position will not change if the shutter-release button is pressed halfway during memory recall in any focus mode.
    • Focus-point selection for self-portrait mode using an ML-L7 has been improved.

    A nice update for the Z30! The red frame for video recording should be a big improvement for vloggers and the new power zoom lens will be a good addition to the lens lineup

    Downloaded the Windows version: F-Z30-V110W.exe

    When I launch it even with Admin rights: no visible start, no error, nothing at all ... the camera is USB connected.

    There is always a "first".
    This is the first time in 50 years I don't even know if a program has a start!!

    ( no reasons given )

    Yeah, it's meant to be unzipped, and then you move the file onto the card to run the update.

    Nikon has a more detailed guide on their website somewhere

    The file downloaded is an executable. So you just click on it and it usually creates a folder. On my Windows computer the file downloads into the Downloads folder and the new folder is usually created on my desktop with the .bin file.

    Thanks, I appreciate the support for the MC-N10 remote grip.

    OOoooh Sheeeep !!!

    I missed that point, sure I've gotten and saw the .BIN but not having found the instruction's PDF...
    ... I supposed the .Exe would dialog with the camera.

    Instead, I will have to copy it manually the Camera's card. Bleah.

    I feel Computers-side Nikon is still far away in the past.

    As for WIFI ...
    ...forcing the Z30 to be THE router instead of being a Client, able to connect to a Lan, and subsequently to the NET for updates Over The Air !!!!

    Thanks, both ... you saved me

    ( I'm too old to be young and fool - so I'm a fool - not young anymore )

    PS: The update was successfully finished.
