[QUOTE="Needa, post: 763568, member: 37799"] The reason downgrades are generally not recommended is the the file is tested to upgrade the previous version and may not be tested for downgrade. The upgrade may add additional files and/or upgrade the firmware (think of firmware as the software running the board) by trying to downgrade some files may not be replace or removed leaving a potential for device failure. In some case a special boot procedure may required to downgrade, others a board replacement. If issues are know the information may be available from tech support or they may give a blanket don't downgrade. My years of experience upgrading and downgrading devices in the field is upgrade usually go well but downgrade can be iffy and never load software on a Friday afternoon. PS My experience is not cameras related but the same principals apply. [/QUOTE]
