I've been liking it though I haven't had further chance to test Astrotracer Type 3 due to weather.
Anyway, for the sake of full transparency, I have to say I've had two glitches that may or may not be related to the beta firmware.
One was that, after taking pictures, I powered the camera off, went home, removed the SD card from the camera and inserted it to the card reader connected to my PC. The PC complained that it cannot read the card. I put the card back to the camera and the camera couldn't read it either. Eventually I gave up and formatted the card in camera after that. This happened to me once before the update too, it could be the card or the card reader but I'm not sure.
Another glitch was that after repeated short bursts (continuous M) with DA* 300 and HD DA 1.4x, suddenly the camera didn't fire. I thought that maybe the camera was writing the data to my card though the access lamp wasn't blinking, waited for 30 sec or so, but it still didn't come back, it even didn't AF. I switched the camera off and back on, and it worked right away. This happened to me a few times before the update, cannot remember the condition, though.
