Great stuff Sony! Keep the Firmware updates coming…
This news ought to cheer up NEX/A7-7r/Alpha A mount users all at once! LOL.
Well done, Sony! Any updates for Xperia and TVs? 😉
Yeah…FW updates for people who will care the least to check for updates anyways and meanwhile no updates for those who payed much more money for mid to high tier stuff in A and E mounts.
They still haven’t even released a delayed shutter mode for the A7r did they? The Cybershot division seems to manage its resources far better than the E and A mount divisions.
Things like this may take time gintony… They would need to dev, test, put it in prod…
I guess this is much better than push a new method, then prey (that’s everything is working) !
The good news is : because they support such hardware, they will support high end hardware.
Oh cry me a river…
lol … managers going crazy… firmware updates for toys…
I actualy like the idea QX cameras. It should look even less like photo equipment. For example like a girl’s accessory or luxury case for contacts lenses. It would be then perfect to pass security checks at stadiums and other venues which forbid cameras. Maybe “Always” sticker would do ;).
I tried this and found it to be impractical. First, I don’t get the idea of sticking a unit to a camera. It just doesn’t make sense. On the other hand using it in standalone mode promise to be curious with amazing versatility. In practice, it is quite uncomfortable to hold a smartphone in one hand and a unit in another.
Best of all is the new http://www.sony.net/pmm App version 4.2.0, which now connects also my NEX-5T faster than before and stops sending useless notifications on Android.
I mean that the 1440 to 1920 change was done at the previous firmware. At least I can remember reading about that a couple of months ago, and I’m pretty sure that it wasn’t a heads up.
I like the concept, but found the initial product to be hard to use. Is this update a difference-maker, or a tweak?
I Like this is the second firmware for these things but there is none still for the rx100 and mkII.
