I'm in the market for a 'mint-ish' one of these (sorry if as a new member I'm not supposed to say that yet!) but have become a bit unnerved by what I've read about early versions this lens on the internet, needing a v2 firmware update. The Canon UK website says that it isn't available any more, but the Canada website is offering a third version under this heading:
Service Notice: EF 40mm f/2.8 STM: Firmware Update Ver 1.2.0
I can't work out which examples will come with the latest firmware, but having read of people almost bricking their lens with an update, I'm not even thinking about it.
I can't find anything on TP about it, but can anyone offer any thoughts on the matter, please?
Many thanks.
