Sony fixes a7 lll ‘blinking pixels’ video issue with firmware 1.01 update

19 Apr

Sony has released the first firmware update for the Sony a7 III—version 1.01—and it was specifically released to solve a “blinking pixel” issue that showed up when recording video footage while using certain settings.

The flickering pixels would appear along the base of footage “during XAVC S 4K (PAL 25p) recording (depending on the combination of camera settings).” Additionally, the update resolves a problem that could occasionally make the rear touch screen stop working, and Sony says the camera’s system should run more smoothly with the new firmware as well.

For more information and to download V1.01 for yourself, visit this support page on the Sony website.

Nikon D850 firmware 1.01 fixes long exposure green cast and other minor bugs

18 Jan

Nikon has released the first firmware update for its 45.7 MP full-frame D850 DSLR. Firmware version 1.01 comes with fixes for the following issues:

  • Users exiting the Clean image sensor menu entry after adding it to and entering it via My Menu would be returned not to My Menu but to Setup Menu.
  • Photos taken with On selected for Long exposure noise reduction would sometimes have increased noise or shadows with a greenish cast.
  • Slight aperture reset lag would sometimes occur after shooting at shutter speeds under 1/10 s (type E and PC-E lenses excluded).

These all sound like minor issues, but it is reassuring to know Nikon is taking the continuous improvement of its products seriously. If you own a D850 and want to update to the new firmware, you can find all information and download links on the Nikon website. If you are considering the D850 as your next camera, check out our full review bellow:

27 Apr

Nikon has released firmware version 1.01 for the D7200. The latest software version fixes a few issues, including static that could be heard in videos recorded using external HDMI recorders, an incorrectly displayed firmware version number in the Setup Menu, an issue with displaying February 29th in leap years and exposure compensation failure that sometimes happened when using in-camera Raw processing.

Nikon D7200 Review

The full changelog reads:

Fixed the following issues:

  • Selecting Firmware version in the SETUP MENU would not display “C X.XX L X.XXX”.
  • About 4 seconds of static could be heard on audio recorded with external HDMI recorders during movie live view.
  • Exposure compensation would fail to produce the desired results if a negative value was selected when NEF (RAW) images were processed using the NEF (RAW) processing option in the RETOUCH MENU.
  • February 29th would sometimes not display correctly in leap years.

Note

  • Updating to firmware version 1.01 resets menu settings for cameras with firmware that displays as “A X.XX”, “B X.XX”, “L X.XXX”, “D X.XX”, “L X.XX”, or the like. We recommend that you save settings before performing the update.

The firmware can be downloaded for Windows and Mac OS from Nikon’s Support website.
