  10. Adds to lower the image capture frame rate to help prevent overheating when connected to CR-A100 in extended remote shooting.
  11. "When transferring images with voice memos via FTP, the transfer order priority has now changed with voice memo (Wav) file being sent first followed by image file.
    If a voice memo is added to an image queued for transfer, the image and voice memo are now sent last."

  13. Adds the ability to set [Airplane mode] to shooting button customization.
  14. Adds the ability to enable [Exposure Simulation] when a flash unit is attached.
