i have run into a few issues where it wont save to card because it says there is not enough space but i checked the card and there was 100gigs of space, once removed sd card i could not get it to recognize again in the playback and settings menu with the refresh button, just had to loose the clip and reboot
Yeah, I've had the same issue with losing access to the SD card slot after an out of space error until I reboot. I think the SD drive fails to be properly unmounted so inserting a new SD card won't work because the mountpoint is 'busy'. The USB ports don't seem to have this problem - if you use an SD card reader in the USB port you may have better luck.
hmm im not saving raw just h264
I think the out of space error is happening because (a) the software can't seem to write past the first 8 gb of a fat32 partition and (b) fat32 has a 4gb file size limit - you can hit that easily when saving RAW. I found a temporary workaround to be to format your drive for Linux ie. ext3. You just have to install some 3rd party software on mac/windows to read the files off. Another way around might be to partition to the drive into lots of 8gb fat32 segments, which would probably give faster saving, although you'll still get hit with the 4gb file size limit and it'll be a pain to use. Devs can correct this if I am mistaken.

The next version is being worked on right now. Features in this coming version are:
- Remembering settings across reboots (most common request!)
- Fix for a potential cold-temperature RAM issue (seen as horizontal bands of colored pixels)
- Autonomous operation with automatic save-after-trigger and automatic recording start after save
- Maybe HDMI
If HDMI doesn't get into this release, it will be in the next.
Ethernet will be coming in a subsequent update, it's a big project, the entire low-level camera control needs to be broken out of the user application and made to work over network.
Also, the open source release is imminent, finally have a working build environment that doesn't have any of the NDA code in it! Hopefully within the week.
I finally have a way to quickly aim and follow targets using a $40 Amazon gun sight, now I just need to find a way to quickly pull focus.great to see someone getting some bird in flight shots!
All the clips were shot with a 400mm lens (effective 1560mm) at ~f8-f11 and 6db gain on the camera.
