Got the cam! (XA1)it is in good general condition, the lens cap is not the original one:( the batt.is being charging, It actually came with 2 original batt.!Question, the Firmware is the 1.00 , is it worth to update it to the latest one? And if yes what are the benefits?

Cheers

Always update , it`s very rare that Fuji screw up a FW update - Once ever as far as I know

If you`re a RAW shooter , You`ll love the XA series (and the XT100) as they have a normal bayer sensor like all your other cameras so give amazing detail in pretty much any raw converter out there . the sensor I believe is the one from the Sony NEX-6 and Pentax K5 etc so no slouch image quality wise even today ..

It`s not the fastest camera on the planet, but that`s not a bad thing, sometimes we need to slow down our photography and the XA1 is easier than a plate loaded view camera or an old Sigma DP1
