When the upgrade is performed during the original warranty period is performed is irrelevant. If you have two years from date of purchase before, you have three years from date of purchase with the upgrade. The only possible advantage accrued by leaving an intended upgrade until later is that your camera is being checked and adjusted to specifications later in its life. For a camera out of the original warranty period a new 12 months warranty is provided from the upgrade date.
