Just now, Nikon has outed its 1.11 firmware update package targeted at Nikon 1 AW1 cameras, which fixes some issues regarding location data logs by removing the bugs that prevented correct acquisition of these values.

Specifically speaking, these logs couldn’t be properly received when Nikon’s imaging device was powered off while Record location data was enabled. Also, when creating a log while Record location data is set to “Yes,” the numerical values will now be saved accurately for all locations.

In addition to that, firmware 1.11 also fixes the issue where longitude displayed in “Simple Photo Info” wasn’t the same with values shown on the monitor when Location Data > Position was selected.

As for the downloadable packages, Nikon has provided two files: one suitable for Windows Vista, 7, and 8.1 operating systems (both bit variants), and one targeted at Mac OS X 10.6 and latest platforms.

Therefore, save and run the appropriate file depending on your system configuration, copy the “AW1_0111.bin” file onto a formatted memory card, make sure your camera is turned off, and insert the newly-prepared card.

Now, power on your device, go to Menu > Firmware Version, select “Update,” and click “Yes” at the next dialog in order to give your camera permission to initiate the upgrade. Once finished, simply check the currently installed firmware to make sure the process has been successful.

Even though this might seem easy, while applying version 1.11, make sure not to remove the memory card or battery, turn your device off, operate device controls, attach or remove any lenses, mount adapters, or flash units, or unplug the AC adapter.

With this in mind, download Nikon 1 AW1 Camera Firmware 1.11, apply it on your unit, and constantly check our website to stay “updated one minute ago.”
