Following thre threads about updating my PMW-EX3 from V1.04 to newer version makes me very confused.
I tried to download the firmware from the ftp://pmw-ex3:sony@65.196.27.198 Iwent directly to readme file and it is indicated the following:
“PMW-EX3 must be at a minimum version of 1.05 to apply upgrades.
If you are above 1.05 but below 1.15, Update to version V1.15 first, and then upgrade to the latest version.
If your device is below the minimum version, applying a firmware upgrade can render the camera inoperable. Sony is not responsible for improperly applied/installed firmware upgrades.
Cameras below the minimum version must be sent in and updated by Sony. Please contact 866-766-9272 if you need to arrange an upgrade.”

Some posts confirm that it is safe to upgrade to V1.30 only from 1.04 or less
Can you please confirm that it is safe to upgrade from v1.04 to v1.30?
