I didn't hit the finish button on the screen.... That was done on my computer. The process was a little clumsy and I had to exit the program once and restart the update but the software knew I had gone through all of the previous steps and started the update.Update is done, but the screen does not come back on, for me to hit the finish button on the screen. Anyone else?
That's for the soon-to-be-released 70-200mm zoom. It has a focus button on the lens; this firmware adds support for its functionality.So what is this new "focus hold function" they talk about?
I think the problem is, there is no 'correct' exposure. Think about it, this frame is already given + 2/3rds over the 'as metered' (i.e. 'Correct for JPEG') exposure. Full ETTR with the A7r can be three stops, even more, over but to me it seems that the highlights suffer well before they blow.I'm sorry, but to me these cameras see in the dark anyway. Have any of you seen ISO 3200 film lately? ;-)
The quality of noise on a +2/3 EV exposure, pushed another two stops, at ISO 3200 isn't really of much use in evaluating performance to me. I'm more interested in what the best they can do with correct exposure might be.
Firmware download has completed. No time to work on installation just at the moment, but I'm ready.

Well, we will disagree. To me, correct exposure is the point at which the interesting highlight bits in a photo do not 'suffer' from saturation/compression while as much data at the dark end of the DR is collected. If the subject DR fits wholly within the DR of the sensor, great, otherwise you decide what you lose and where.I think the problem is, there is no 'correct' exposure.

The crops I show aren't, therefore, boosted two stops in LR to correct them, but to bring out the noise for a comparison...
