There's some strange problem with the subtitle. The timestamp was probably corrupted.

Chris,

Thanks again for posting this. 👍 I plan to watch the entire series. Finch, I'll have a look at the subtitles also. I don't have them turned on currently.

I'm binge watching this weekend and am enjoying the series. The first few episodes are more of a review for someone who's been using the camera for 17 months, but each episode has a trick or two to takeaway. Jem Schofield does a nice job. What I particularly like is that the series was made on the current available firmware 1.0.5.1. So the features he highlights are all there as you move through the series. I have my camera set up on a tripod next to the couch for easy reference or when I want to try something myself. While it doesn't replace reading the manual, its much more fun. 😄

@Finch, your comment above. I am not having any issues with the subtitles. Seems to be in sync and displaying properly.
