I'm using a Top Dawg (also by L&M but a low end housing) which is undoubtedly part of the problem since it cannot access MWB. However, I've also had problems with it topside not focusing well and not beginning to record for 8-10 sec after I press the record button (not good for action shots).
Have your turned quick record on? I've turned that on and the 5 minute auto time out (2 less things to blame the "Dang, I just missed that" on). Drawback I see of quick record is several frames of black video at the end of many of the clips, or the last frame being held. But that has not been an issue when editing (just eliminate those frames - and I always try to get longer segments..)
