Hexar AF versions and firmware

[brbo]

Sorry if this has been answered before, but I couldn't find any information about this...

I know you can enable silent mode on all versions of Hexar AF or it's already factory enabled (original black version). But, can you enable bracketing, multi-exposure, flash guide-number setting and quick exposure setting (did I forget any other ultra cool Hexar tricks?) on the original black version?

I was looking for a Hexar AF for a long time and then ended up (not intentionally) with two of them. One is original black and the other is Classic. I like the looks of the black one but the Classic has all the extra features enabled.

Anybody know?

Ahh... This is why men don't like asking for direction. I'm sure it's just around the corner...

Just after asking here I think I found my answer. I guess it's possible to enable all those functions on original black Hexar AF.

I think that in the days when Hexar AF was new cameras didn't have firmware yet

Quite amazing... I have black Hexar AF and silent mode is there, but I was not aware of other functions (like bracketing). Thanks for sharing!

Just did the dance and it works!!!

Now I have no excuse to keep the second Hexar anymore. Or do I?
