Usually the "if it ain't broken, don't fix it" rule should apply.

But depending on what version you are running, you might get some improvements with a new firmware. Otherwise there is nothing preventing you for updating at a later if the need to update ever arise.

thanks again Fgaudet having checked im on version 1.15 I wanted to ensure that my camera had the update to allow sdhx card format but having now checked I see the support for that had been introduced in an earlier version of the firmware so nothing to worry about there and I'll wait for a while until I put the latest version on thanks again
