ILME-FX30 Firmware 5.0 No Download Link

[FormerNavalPerson]

Just got an email saying v 5.0 is available. Went to the download page and there are lots of helpful instructions. But no actual download!

Anyone had the same problem?

Not with the FX30 but same issue with the A7rV
Seems to be Creator App only but after connecting the camera and app no update is shown !
Hopefully someone knows how to do an SD card update.

Oh Good! Thought I was being an idiot...

Ha !
Bizarrely the download page instructions mention updating via the Creator App but all the detailed instructions are about updating via sd card even though there is no download option !
I've tried to use the App to update and nothing showing.
Seems a bit of a mess if I'm honest
