Is it necessary to update firmware? I'm 'tech challenged' and not clear on how to do it.

If you download the firmware, I believe there will be instructions on what to do depending on what operating system you are using: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/slr_cameras/eos_7d#DriversAndSoftware
