Are you serious?
i just dropped $1,700 on this 2 weeks ago, and they are making purchase the upgrade???
So far I am not impressed...
 
Also, I thought that you can select Quicktime as a record format when shooting DVCPROHD on the FS-100.
When that is selected, the only choices i have are P2 and Raw..
When I am in DV that is where i have my choies to choose from, but i don't see MXF

What's the deal???

The v3.0 upgrade allows you to shoot DVCPROHD Quicktime files and they can be imported directly into FCP. And I agree, if you just bought the FS100 2 weeks ago, Focus Enhancements would be wise, from a customer service perspective, to give you the update free of charge. But that is just my opinion.

If you don't want the upgrade capabilities for $39.00, then stick with v.2.0.3.

There has to be a cut off at some point, which is Feb 1 in this case.

The development of v.3.0 has been known for months here and elsewhere, and its release has been imminent for a couple of weeks.

And the price is $39.00. We all have to be a little vigilant.

Focus is not making you purchase the upgrade. If you do not want or need the functionality it provides, don't buy it. It is like your client asking you for a revision of a particular job and you put hours of work into a substantial revision of the project. I would presume you would expect to be paid. R&D costs money. The nature of the industry is that manufacturers add functionality, make revisions, extend the abilities of a device or a software application. If you don't need what the upgrade provides, don't buy it.
