Going back to your original post... what are you doing to check focus? I've had cameras lock up on me after several rounds of continuous shooting.. at a track meet, say... where I am shooting a lot, and trying to check the previews before everything is done being written to the card... I'm impatient, I guess... But, the camera will freeze, and I won't be able to do anything until it either catches up, or I shut it off & on again. Which is risky & unpleasant, but... see "impatient", above...
