However, please note that the ALEXA LF 3.0 software and hardware upgrade is a prerequisite for upgrading ALEXA LF cameras to LF SUP 4.0. If you still have an ALEXA LF with LF SUP 2.0, you should contact ARRI service to schedule the ALEXA LF 3.0 software and hardware upgrade. More precise information about this can be found on the official Arri website.
If on the other hand you already had LF SUP 3.0, simply download LF SUP 4.0 and install it on your ALEXA LF.
