EM5 wouldnt come out of sleep mode

[Gdog]

Last night was shooting a Giant Pacific Octopus hatch, and after an hour of shots, headed in/up. Stopped and took a couple shots of a nudi, then at safety stop found a hooded nudi. Camera would not come out of sleep mode and in fact acted like the battery was dead. When I got home I removed camera from housing, and I could hear it running but still no response. I removed the battery and it shut off. Put same battery back in, and it showed it still had a very good charge remaining. Camera then responded normal. Anyone have any idea what was going on?

Excellent point. I checked and my camera was still at 1.2, and the updates since then dealt with sleep mode. Now updated to 2.1, will see if it happens again.
