Activation looks to be available, but you can't do it unless you've bought an AG-SFU100G/MC firmware upgrade kit, which will give you an activation code. And those parts aren't available for sale yet, I think they don't come out until the end of this month.

Is there any feedback on how 28Mbps 1080p60 looks? That's certainly not a very proportional bitrate increase based on the doubling the frame rate...is such an upgrade worth $250... I guess its better than Sony's multithousand software upgrade on their F3 to give S-Log.

aren`t there ant beta testers?

Once it becomes available, do you know where it will be sold? Normal retailers, Panasonic...?
Thanks.

Thanks.
She still does not say where the CD will be available for purchase. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Well there is still time for Panasonic to rethink this and make the update free.

Does SFU100 Software Upgrade is the same for all Panasonic Models ? on website the software mentioned for AF101EJ ! Does this version work for my AF100 models ?
