Firmware Details
In addition to those function updates introduced by both V1.30 (Gen2) and V3.10 (Gen1), v1.30 firmware also fixed a bug in Gen2 adapters.
- (V1.30 for Gen2 only) BUG fixed: A very rare case that small number of products may cause camera to blackout and reboot aperiodically. This bug has been fixed by the new firmware.
- Fixed PDAF issues for some lens of the following models: Lens didn’t get recognized by the adapter due to different lens firmware version.
1) TOKINA AT-X 14-20/2 Pro DX
2) TAMRON 10-24/3.5-4.5 Di II VC (B023)
3) TAMRON 16-300/3.5-6.3 VC PZD - Added following lenses to the tested and optimized lens list:
1) EF400/4 DO IS USM
2) EF400/4 DO IS USM + 1.4X
Make sure you download the correct file for the corresponding product. For Gen1, i.e. EF-FX Pro and EF-FX, you need firmware file named EFFX****.BIN. For Gen2, i.e. EF-FX Pro II, you need firmware file named EFX2_****.BIN. Using the wrong file will not damage your adapter. But it will not install.
Please visit Fringer official website to download the new firmware, release notes and user’s manual.
To upgrade your adapter, connect it to a computer through a USB Micro B cable. Copy the corresponding firmware (.BIN file) to the emerged drive named “FRINGER”. Wait for 20 seconds. The adapter will upgrade itself.
