Nikon service supplies software that can be used to update the D5500 camera “C” firmware to version 1.01 (2016-01-27). Before proceeding, select Firmware version in the camera SETUP MENU and check the camera firmware version. You will not need to download or install this update if this firmware is already installed.

Changes from “C” Firmware Version 1.00 to 1.01 are as follows:

AF-P DX NIKKOR 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6G VR and AF-P DX NIKKOR 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6G lenses are now supported.
- Vibration reduction can be enabled or disabled using the new Optical VR option in the photo SHOOTING MENU, which is displayed when an AF-P DX NIKKOR 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6G VR lens is attached.
- The CUSTOM SETTING MENU now contains an a5 Manual focus ring in AF mode option that can be enabled or disabled when an AF-P DX NIKKOR 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6G VR or AF-P DX NIKKOR 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6G is attached.
The following issues have been addressed:
- Noise would occur at four-second intervals in audio output to external recorders connected via HDMI in movie live view.
- Choosing negative values for Exposure compensation in the RETOUCH MENU > NEF (RAW) processing display did not have the desired effect.
- Selecting ON for Exposure smoothing during interval timer photography would result in all shots after the first being overexposed.
