Worked OK for me. Did you format the SD first before copying the .bin file to it?

I've noticed a few things that don't work with this firmware:

1. Disables SR when using electronic shutter in live view

2. Electronic shutter can't be enabled when doing interval shooting (timelapse)

My Sigma 17-70mm died at Christmas with a broken zoom. It is still under 3 year warranty but Sigma UK have refused to repair it. They want £86 to repair it and they have claimed that it was broken by dropping the lens - the lens has never been dropped on banged and I maintain that it is a manufacturing fault.

Anyhow I have just ordered a new unboxed Pentax 16-85mm from SRS on Ebay for £349 link The reviews of the 16-85mm look better than the Sigma 17-70mm

I might get the Sigma repaired and sell on or I might try an independent repairer for a lower price.
