Features:

  • Added new recording mode: "ZRAW (Bayer CFA)" - it's an old (true) ZRAW with Bayer RAW data, that can be used in our converter or original Z CAM ZRAW VideoSuite

  • Original current ZRAW is now renamed to "ZRAW (HEVC)" - it still can be used if you need it

WARNING! Firmware is for E2-M4 ONLY!!! DO NOT setup it on any other camera models!

WARNING 2! IT CAN BE DANGEROUS! YOU USE THIS FW AT YOUR OWN RISK!

How to install the firmware:

1. Rollback your E2-M4 to 0.98.0 version (take image file from the original Z CAM website)

2. Prepare usb-stick/disk with our new image file (WARNING! ALL DATA ON THIS DISK WILL BE ERASED):

  • connect flash to PC

  • open balenaEtcher program (it's free, you can find it in the internet)

  • choose zip file from this post (download zip file by link down there)

  • choose your usb-stick/disk

  • start process by pressing "Flash!" button and wait

  • eject your usb-stick/disk after successful flashing process

3. Install FW to E2-M4:

  • turn off your E2-M4

  • connect your usb-stick/disk to your E2-M4

  • press record button and power button simultaneously

  • wait until you see Z CAM logo on the screen

  • wait for 1-2 seconds and release buttons

  • camera will update to our new firmware

If all is done correctly, after reboot camera will start using new firmware.

You can always rollback to the original Z CAM firmware without any problems.
