The Nissin Air 10s Wireless Commander has user-upgradeable firmware. That means that you can update the internal software that runs the Air 10s in order to add compatibility with new cameras, fix problems, or to add features.

The Air10s firmware can be updated by downloading current firmware files to a MicroSD card (FAT32 formatted) and inserting the MicroSD card into the Air10s to perform the update.
