But what about this video?

Seems like a big problem.

Will Minelab bother to fix it?

Big problem? You hunt and find a lot of half dollars, large silver rings, or other large silver on edge with other detectors? Of course not, because those targets are rarer than gold nuggets. That’s not to say the issue is not a problem or does not exist, but puffing it up into a major flaw is not the right answer either. All detectors struggle one way or another with on edge targets. This issue was first noted way back in February, but gets rediscovered every month, each time with this “wow, look what I discovered” post that simply repeats what people who have been paying attention have known for months.

Not only is this a minor issue, but any continued hammering away at it is nothing more than trolling at this point. It’s been going on four months now after all. Any mention of it going forward will be moved to the thread that is now this forums “official thread” on the subject...

Will Minelab address this in an update? Possibly, but as Chase has noted care must be taken not to break something else in the process. In the meantime it would be a real shame if a focus on this is keeping anyone from going out and using a great detector to make great finds.
