"Firmware Ver 1.10 upgrade for PMW-EX1R
PMWEX1R_1.10_1701-SxS.zip
Functionality added: * SDHC media can be used (with optional MEAD-SD01 Media Adapter) * Clip name * Max. 46 characters in title * Long Clip name displayed on CLIP INFO screen * Electrical Filter position can be displayed."

Sony of Canada E-support

But I'd like to know what an electrical filter (position) is.

If your getting errors with your MxR cards would you really trust them enough to do a firmware update? If it goes wrong your camera could be toast. Beg, borrow, scrounge an SxS card to do the update, you'll only need it for 30 mins.

If your going to do a lot of S&Q you really should be using an SxS card. Why not just buy a single 8Gb SxS card off ebay and use that for S&Q. You can always copy the files in camera from the SxS card to an MxR/SD card to free up space on the SxS card.
