I am a "Never", as far as lockups are concerned, but I have popped the battery out and back in because lens IS seemed to be less solid than usual for that lens, and on those few occasions a clearly saw an improvement in stability when the camera re-powered. I think I have seen the same with previous DSLRs, though, and it could be a lens issue.

I changed my vote today, because I had my first lockup about a week ago, where the EVF actually froze. Popped the battery door and all was well.

I had 3 more about a week ago. They all happened within a 10-minute period, and the battery was low (I didn't notice until the 3rd time), and I was using my ProGrade Gold 128GB CFe. I believe I was using that card also for the very first lock-up, but I don't remember the battery status. I will try to pay attention to more variables in the future (shutter mode, etc).

P.S. All occurred with 1.4.0.
