He's still around. I as well work for a software company. Our developers love to say "It Works As Designed." So I asked if it was designed wrong...didn't go over too well. Paul

gjl711 Wait.. you can't unkill your own kill.  57,741 posts Likes: 4073 Joined Aug 2006 Location: Deep in the heart of Texas More info | Oct 29, 2008 08:22 | #42 Upgraded last night with no issues. Very smooth and easy though it did take a bit longer than previous firmware upgrades probably due to the size. Did a bit of testing, ran through all my lenses and all seems well. Gonna have a weekend full of shooting opportunities this weekend so it will get a good workout. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

It obviously means pressing the shutter AFTER the battery is installed. If you press the shutter without a battery installed, the camera won't function - and this is not a fault, it is designed to work that way (lol).
