Here's CEO Jeromy Young on the new update for the Atomos Shogun (which actually arrived about a week ago):
An important note: they are shipping higher capacity batteries with the Shogun now, so if you got one with the smaller 2600mAh battery, all you have to do is register your recorder here to get the higher capacity 5600mAh battery.
The current firmware is actually 6.11 at this point (which you can download here), though it's a minor release (FID:060306110207 ):
- Bug fixes: Fixed occasional issue in playback where the scrub bar would seek to the beginning of the file incorrectly when scrubbing.
- Known issues: A few seconds analog headphone delay is experienced when switching between playback and record.
The 6.1 update brought about a number of new features and bug fixes (FID:060306100207):
