- Increase speed focus system, Especially when using telephoto lenses, thanks to an improvement in both the AF motor control as in the detection of the distance of objects out of focus.
- Extending the range of exposure compensation in four steps An issue of particular interest to you please photographers who shoot in extreme lighting conditions or you may be lovers or high key low key: ± 3.0 EV of permitting before the update goes to ± 5.0 EV.
- Two-step increase in the range exposure for the function Bracketing, From the previously allowed two to three points, both above and below: ± 2.0 EV in ± 3.0 EV.
- New feature that allows triggering the shutter without lens, Or rather without having detected a target mounted on the camera. This is very useful for example to mount your camera on a telescope or a microscope.
- I acknowledge that I personally am not a big fan of Sony cameras, but I have to say that I think, with this update we offer very significant changes that will undoubtedly significantly improve the chances of these two cameras.
