Extracting firmware?

[Carl1]

Is there anyway to extract the firmware out of a new dahua IP camera? IPC-HDW4233C-A. I would love to extract a multilanguage firmware for backup and to update a same model camera in which the firmware is in Chinese.

Paging @cor35vet ! He's done a lot with Dahua firmware and could likely answer you question.
