In this release Pentax K1 has also started to be tested and supported. This release increases performance. It currently takes about 8 seconds to copy a DNG file to the Windows computer after exposure is complete. This release also supports RGGB format rather than just Color. To debayer a DNG file takes an extra 5 seconds per exposure so RGGB format is better. Finally there is now initial NINA support using the RGGB format. This includes fast readout mode that uses LiveView.
