Okay...thanks.

On the other hand, if the stated corrections [see below] are the only items 
accounted for by the upgrade, I see no need...

None of the "fixes" are pertinent to my picture-taking!

       "What is fixed with an upgrade from version 75 to version 78.

1. When in BULB mode for 40 seconds with Noise Reduction
    OFF and using ISO 400 there is stray light in the exposure.
2. After the external flash is fired, the flash charging
    indication is not displayed.
3. The camera may lock-up when using a defective memory card.
4. Pixel Mapping does not function properly.
5. When the camera is used in SDK mode, the Camera Controls
    cannot be used.

        [SDK? No idea what that is!]

6. With the FL-50 flash and the camera lens set to the
    widest angle, the focal length value will not indicate
    less than 35 mm.
7. When in RAW mode the minimum aperture is incorrectly
    indicated with any software."

I don't know where this came from, but I copied it exactly...

There are some things for some folks, but not particularly for me...
