My F30 is in the office, has anyone updated the firmware?

Quote: Detail of the update The firmware (Ver.1.00 to Ver.1.02) update incorporates the following issues. 1. Fix the issues that some camera operation cause the following effects in very rare cases. (a) Some recorded images cannot be viewed and "Read Error" message is displayed on the LCD monitor. (b) The full frame of camera recorded image cannot be viewed on PC. 2. Shorten the recognition time of PC when the camera connected to the PC via USB interface. In the case of 1000 JPEG images in camera, PC recognition time is improved from 20 seconds to 2 seconds.

Just updated mine.

Thank you for the link.

I have so far not experienced any of the above issues, and I do not think I will have 1000 images in the camera. Thus I think it is not urgent to update to the new firmware, at least for me.

But it is comforting to see that fujifilm is releasing new firmware to correct issues.

sama, sama, anyway the issues mentioned are rated 'rare'...furthermore, I don't use connection via usb cable - all along using cardreader. So will skip. Cheers.

Anyway thanks for the headsup.

I'll be shooting a max resolution so with the current 1GB card, I'll never hit the 1000 pic limit
