This from Kenro this morning:
Hi Paul, No further updates from Nissin, but I do believe that Fuji are releasing another update tomorrow (8th Nov) for the X-Pro2 which restores the i40’s functionality, so perhaps this is an update that has already been released by Fuji elsewhere. I will know more when the update is released tomorrow and I have the chance to check with Nissin. Best regards, Steve
Lets hope.....
