The whole idea of the firmware upgrade was to fix that and one other small problem. What I would like to know is which focus "mode" works best, the continuous mode or 'single' mode? -- QUIPd 1.02: (479 of 679) - A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.

As far as accuracy goes I haven't noticed any difference between the two modes. But single mode saves battery power, as well as wear and tear on the lens mechanism. Rick

Rick True, accuray is not effected, maybe focusing is a bit faster if continous mode is on, since focusing is done even before you half-press shutter. On the other hand, you're right about mechanism and batteries.
