So a lot of people seem to be having issues with BT on a7siii and a1 after updating. I didn’t have any issues with that but just a heads up that it seems to be a problem.

[OmgItsAlexOfficial]

What's up Lee! Been rocking this cam for almost 3 years and just bought an fx3 so it's now my b-cam. Paid for itself 100x over!

[Bo_Hazem]

I'm very happy with the update: touch menu free-up many custom buttons for more things and changing things fast, focus breathing compensation that I don't need with my current lens set but amazing nonetheless, cleaner view of the screen with things pushed to the edges, shutter closed down for sensor-protection when the camera is turned off under the "anti-dust function", photo authentication, Creator's App support. Couldn't care less about DCI 24fps also the biggest cons remains: No Animal/Bird Eye AF.

im so pleased that Sony have done this.. Big up SONY

4K 24p license doesnt work to me, not from mobile app, not also from pc. "error occured" all the time

[PokeFodder]

Thank you so much for actually showing the update process on a newer Mac! I needed to update my 70-200 lens and could not figure out the process.

[NatesFilmTutorials]

Thank you for sharing about the cinema 4K 24p license, couldn’t find it anywhere! 😅

Anyone with A7SIII experiencing an ISO bug (Native ISO remap to 80 and 1600) which results in a very noisy ProRes Raw footage after 3.0 update when recording in PRORES RAW with NINJA V (or any other bug after 3.0 update), I just spoke with a Sony rep on the phone. He said they had very few people contact them with this issue, and they are compiling evidence.
So please go to Sony Support in your country (I'm in the US), contact the support (I did it through chat), describe the problem, and make them create a support ticket (don't get satisfied with their default troubleshooting attempts).
The rep also said that having a well-made video demonstrating the problem is a big plus!

I hope they included import lut like Fx3

[MohannadFannan]

I have Canon 5d mark iv and it has this UI before, Its good to have it in Sony Cameras.

[JensMowatt]

Sony made my camera worse in some ways with this update. The autofocus doesn’t feel the same, H265 in 60p no longer reduces file sizes by half, no way to remove all distractions from the screen while shooting, and the X to get out of touch focus is only there on the screen with the most distractions. Super annoying. I’m regretting updating, despite the new features.

After v3.00 update for sony a7iv have the option to purchase custom gridlines. But how are custom gridlines installed and imported into c1-c4 (Png files) create them? Purchase/download?
Is there a tutorial on how to do this because i cant find any method/instructions of/about installing custom gridlines. I feel custom gridlines will help with framing and work flow for certain social media apps, like 4:5 5:4 and 9:16 16:9 while remaining in the full sensor 3:2 resolution Great content, love your work, very informative, dont stop !!!

[PreethamRameshNaik]

I did install new firmware but I am unable to activate DCI 4k from creators app. It says bluetooth malfunction error on camera. Any remedy?

[matjazkoren]

Hope the A7IV gets the new UI as well down the line.

[filmworks]

Thank you so much the tutorial was exactly what I was looking for!

[TravisVarga]

oh the new touchscreen settings are sweet!

[zozefinoulis]

great update but i have some quastion if there is an answer, i have a AF/MF funcion custom key, in shooting mode when i change from af to mf the focus mode dont dissapear is any way there are a setting for this to fix it ? im really thinking go back one version... :/

[LDLCGO]

There are some bugs in the new firmware... When shooting prores raw, iso 1600 exposes like 12800. Iso 640 looks like 5000 and you can't go down froim there. Hdmi raw output also becomes corrupted when dci 4k mode is selected. 😬

[TylerShortt]

The update caused my Bluetooth/Wi-Fi unit to malfunction, which is why they pulled the A1 update. It also seems to have removed the "PC remote function" which iirc is what allowed you to connect to a DJI Ronin gimbal

[imadclicks]

My wifi and bluetooth have stopped working after the update can anyone provide a fix please
