Kevin: “ I just wanted to pass along several videos shot exclusive on the SONY Rx10ii and most are in 240fps.  Nothing like football shot in slow motion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRywygdN1JQ”

  1. The 18-105/4 G update seems to include zoom direction changing and nothing more.

    Improvements I suggest are:
    1 –
    Allow AF during zooming. Currently AF does not operate while zoom is engaged. Kind of useless for tele distant to wide close zoom pans. The RX10II also has this problem of not being capable of AF during zooming.

    2 –
    Provide memory during sleep mode for returning to previous zoom setting. Currently zooms to widest mm after every sleep.

    3 –
    Allow fine adjustment to fly-by-wire manual focus ring. This applies to all fly-by-wire lenses. Give options for linear mode beyond the standard mandatory accelerometer method which makes focus pulls impossible… absolutely impossible. Sony should allow for short and long throw settings in a linear fashion… and also allow focus direction changing just like the zoom update.
