Subject: Firmware updating
Pentax recommends to use the AC adapter K-AC10 when updating Firmware to
the *istD. Is that really necessary? Would new CR-V3 lithium batteries be
enough? Any other advice what to think about when updating is welcome
Just make sure the batteries are reasonably fresh before starting the upgrade.
It takes less that 5 minutes to complete, so you need enough battery power to reliably run the camera (including the screen) for that length of time.
