for amatuer like me, after 1 year (cos just finish installment! ), i am still learning. so whether it is 1.08 or 1.09 or 1.10, there will be no difference to me other than the version number.

so?? I will wait lor :P

read the dpreview thread. seems like as long as nothing bad happened during the firmware update, you can downgrade to the previous firmware version. of cos if the cam dies during the update then have to bring back to fuji

Downgrade to using your backup cam if you have one ................

No, firmware upgrade is not reversible

There are claims of even better AWB, focusing, and sharpness on the flickr forum. I've the firmware downloaded. Will upgrade this week, but don't count on me to do any before/after comparison.

I was skeptical when those dpreview dudes claim that the image is rendered better.
I am glad I didn't trust them
