A2: Changes from previous versions are included.
Changes in Version 1.0.1.0: (released on March 24, 2008)
A program was added to work around the phenomenon of some SDHC cards not being recognized due to incompatibility.
We discovered that there were cases in which the communication with the card was not working when the power was ON, resulting in an access error and a "Check the card" message. You can work around this phenomenon by updating the firmware to this version.
Changes in Version 1.0.2.0: (released on August 28, 2008)
Can use Video Flash Light VFL-2 and Video Light VL-5(*).
* This firmware update is required to use the Mini Advanced Accessory Shoe-compatible accessories Video Flash Light VFL-2 or Video Light VL-5 with the HF10/HF100.
