Jean: “Is this where people share sony related links with you? If so, here’s a little video I shot day after I got my RX100m4. Really enjoy this camera. All shot on RX100m4 in HFR 250fps and 4K 24fps. P.S. Youtube compression really kills the image quality in high motion areas (water…) Original is MUCH better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zXvpqF-mj4”

Hasn’t this Metabones Firmware out since a week? Don’t see a newer version, so this might be old news already?
Announcement appears to be dated Sept. 18
Yes there have been two updates 1.8 and 1.81. However both are very ‘buggy’ and some don’t work at all. Users seem to be downgrading to old firmware (pre-A7RII) in order to get adapter to work.
I just read a little about black silicon sensors.
According to available litterature the claims are 100-500x the sensetivitiviy of untreated silicon, higher iso, extremely low noise, and prototype XQE sensors have 72db native dynamic range and 120db HDR dynamic range with very low noise.
Normal Silicon is subjected to a laser proces that generates tall thin spikes of 1/4 light wavelength or greater.
Each pixel is a single silicon crystal.
Absorption is extremely high, and the crystals are very effective at converting the light energy to eletrical energy…the combination resulting in as much as 100-500 x the sensetivity of untreated silicon as used in ccd sensors.
If you google Black Silicon Sensor…..or Black Silicon Camera Sensor a lot of interesting articles come up.
