All these, and I'd also like to see improvemnts to the AF assist lamp. I often find it activates fairly randomly. Sometimes it activates in low light (good) sometimes in good light (not needed) and sometimes it fails to activate in low light (when I need it). I'd like to see something like: if the AF fails to lock and focus is retried within 3 seconds, the AF lamp automatically activates.

That makes sense. Maybe the contrast of the scene play a part in the algorithm?

- - 2.a Shutter Lag with the remote RR-90. Arggggggh! 3/4 of a second with the remote. The lens is prefocused in manual mode. The exposure is manual too. Everything should be lightning fast. And when I press the remote's shutter button, I have to wait 750 millisecond for the camera to fire. Unacceptable!!!

I don't have this problem, the lag with my RR-90 is the same as using the on camera shutter button in all modes (AF, MF, manual exposure, auto exposure etc)

That's very interesting. I will have to investigate my remote set-up...
