I would exercise caution with this update. I think the intention of it was to gain tethered compatibility for owners of older multishot Sinarbacks, and the eSprit back. But look at the known bugs in the readme - kernal panics with Macbooks Pros and corrupted images on CF cards. Not a problem if you stick to using the internal memory and use a tower, but unless you have one of those aforementioned backs I wouldn't bother. I have seen no other bug fixes or improvements after using 7.03 for a week or two.

Obviously some people do own eSprit backs, or Sinar are encouraging sales of their existing stock of eSprit backs by making eXposure work tethered with it.

the question for me were those mentioned problems non existent in earlier version of SinaExposure Software (7.01 for example)??

As far as I know they didn't exist in 7.01. I don't remember reading about those bugs in the 7.01 readme and I have been using it successfully with an aluminium macbook pro with no crashes, and have had no corrupted files when importing off CF card.
