Hi,
on the Japanese webpage they announced a first firmware update for the K-3III to firmware 1.01
PENTAX Firmware Update Software for PENTAX K-3 Mark III??????????????????????????? | RICOH IMAGING
Haven't seen an English announcement and can't say anything to the changes. But others will find out, for sure.

From google translate:
Improved the stability of operation when the battery level is low.
Fixed the phenomenon that images are rarely recorded correctly when shooting continuously in RAW format.
Improved overall operational stability.

I installed last night and confirmed it fixes it. There’s also a DCU upgrade that fixes the menu language on Windows problem.
