This document describes firmware update of PMW-F55/F5 V1.12 to V1.13. Version 1.13 update is for the camera head only not for the AXS-R5. The latest AXS-R5 firmware is V1.12.

Changes from V1.12 to V1.13 Added Functionality 1. Selectable Exposure Index value (selected) on Cine-EI mode F55 supports Exposure Index values (400EI/640EI/800EI/1250EI) on Cine-EI mode. F5 supports Exposure Index value (640EI/800EI/1250EI/2500EI) on Cine-EI mode. In this version, the VF, SDI outputs and SxS recording are simultaneously and equally gained down. A future update scheduled for Dec/2013 will offer the option for not gaining down SxS recording. 2. Rec Trigger IN and Rec Tally OUT via DC Output connector F55 and F5 get a Rec Trigger signal via DC Output connectors on battery adaptor or AXS-R5 by using rec Start/Stop switch.
