Hi
I just got a call from Jim O'Neill at Olympus customer service in response to
the question I had left for them about the Viewer 2 software. That was nice.
We discussed the fact that the Viewer 2 software does not do the updates for
the E-1 and he told me that it was due to the fact that the E-1 (only) requires
the switch to the "Control" mode to do the updates. All of the subsequent
cameras do not need that. Since that is the only camera with that
requirement, the feature was omitted.
Jim offered to send me a key for Studio 2 but I told him I had already received
that from them when the Studio 2 upgrade came out. I had used it earlier today
to update my E-1 body to the v1.5 firmware.
Getting a call was good customer service on Olympus' part, and we now know that
all of the cameras aside from the E-1 should receive firmware updates through
Viewer 2.
Cheers,
Mike Hobart
