Yes, I also got the camera finally today and they updated the
firmware (the program in camera) from 6B to 6E, according
to the service receipt. They also checked functions, adjusted
exposure, etc. including CF19.
They read the exposure counter which was about 17000 exposures
so far (it is one of the first units in the country I think,
I bought it second hand from a pro with 3 bodies).
Price: 180FIM = about 30USD. Quite reasonable in my opinion.
