I've found the same. September 9 is coming right up!There is an interesting comment over in the Ricoh forums about the improvement in macro focusing using 1.4

In this case, for sure. But I don't disparage "focus by wire" in general ... so much is dependent on the implementation. Better lenses, like the Olympus ZD high-grade and super-high-grade lenses, have an excellent feel and much higher precision servos than the A12 AF camera units. They provide comparable focusing quality and precision to high end manual helicoids....
Standard lenses feel really way more precise in focussing. Focus by wire is no pleasure to use.
Uwe,Some GXR M-Mount updates:
1. Got the EVF
2. Got a Nikon to M-Mount adapter
3. M-Mount and Raw converters
The sensor without AA filter can record very fine details. This will challenge some RCs (e.g Lightroom and C1) on some images as they may create some de-bayering artifacts. RAW Developrt 1.9.2 now also supports the M-Mount module. Best you check it out.
