Summed up experience perfectly, i was told it doesn't happen in the Z9 or Z8, sorry it even happens in the other brands.In my cases, yes. All functions stop and the only way to turn the camera off/reset function is to pull and re-insert the battery. My last episode was about a month ago while doing an air to air photo shoot of antique airplanes. Happened repeatedly, maybe 5 times. It would work fine for several bursts and then lock up. I'd clear the lock up and it would be good for a few more bursts then rinse and repeat. More than a few missed shots.......that was the most repeatable the issue has been, it was previously very hit or miss.
I've never had a lock up prior to FW 5.0. Just sayin'..........
Its software related, language to the card, ram, or processing issues is my guess.
It seems to be an industry thing worse for some than others.
Don't know what else to think, manufactures are not coming out with the cause or solution.
Only an opinion
