Casio EX-Z50 lives again

So, I have been searching since 2009 for the firmware for a Casio Exilim EX-Z50 digital camera.  I finally found it and it was a breeze to flash and now the camera is once again alive.  So I thought I would share this file with anyone else experiencing issues with their camera.

Now be warned I am not responsible for any issues that may arise from this procedure.

Ensure your camera battery is fully charged before beginning.

Step one download the firmware file from EX-50.bin  and place in on a SD-Card.

Step two insert the SD-Card into your camera. Power on your camera while holding the menu button. You should be prompted with a yes/no question about flashing new firmware.  Select YES.  You will then see NOW LOADING on screen.  You will see COMPLETE when the process is finished.

Step three power off the camera and remove the SD-Card.  Your camera should now be working.
