Urgent! Camera 7.7.3 Update

PostWed Mar 23, 2022 9:55 am

Hi everyone,

Camera Update 7.7.3 has been just released. Wanted to update our three 6k pros.
But to my surprise the cameras are not allowed to update although the update is specifically for the 6k pro. All of the Cameras are on 7.5.1

Does anybody know why the update screen says "Software is up to date"?
Thanks!

Did you delete the old package from your computer and load the new one?
Now that the cat #19 is out of the bag, test it as much as you can and use the subforum.

Hi Uli, yes I deinstalled the former version. But still it says: "Software is up to date".

Any other suggestion?

Not really. You may need too wait until someone with that camera reacts.

Hi

It only contains manufacturing related updates and has the same firmware version in the release as v7.5.1. So if you are already on v7.5.1, you are good and the software will not prompt you for an update.

hi kristan
thank you for the clarification

only I do not understand why this software was released,
if it does nothing different than the some time ago > 7.5.1?

or is it different when you update from 7.3.1 to 7.7.3?

This is information that is probably worth listing in the release notes to avoid confusion.

if you had read it, you would have noticed that this update
is only for some 6K pro, and not for the 4k.

The truth is that I didn't understand at all what this update created for the 6k Pro is for, but apparently it doesn't do anything on the 6k Pro. :? :? :? :?

Since it says For updating Blackmagic Cameras from Camera 4.0 or above I thought it meant from pk4 up

this is a standard text

the most important thing is always here:

but as we have learned here, even with the 6K pro this firmware is NOT installed.

May you please disclose any specific manufacturing changes made in the latest BMPCC6K Pro units coming off the manufacturing line?
