Sony NEX cameras firmware wishlist (ver 1.02/1.03 released)

Hello

I found that we sometimes common desires for NEX 5, 6, 7 firmware. It is perhaps wise to join in a single thread. We can discuss in threads separated on really specific version of NEX camera opportunities, but common desires that we should define in one place.

Read threads separated current: 5R NEX; NEX 6; NEX 6; NEX 5N; NEX 6... and talk about your wishes of firmware

Good day!

> get rid of the LAG after shooting 1 on Nex6

Try to change the Menu-> Camera-> Drive "Burst" Mode, try shooting single player Mode set Menu-> Setup-> Auto Review 'OFF', or set both options. Your camera will be much more quickly ready for the next shoot.

  • Use Camera RAW with the Sony Nex-3

    Hey guys!

    I want to get more details on my photos.

    I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS5

    Sony NEX - 3 camera Compact (listed in the camera raw compatibility list)

    First, I changed the photo cameras to jpg in RAW format and made some photos.

    At home I tried to open the files with Camera Raw. Does not work. The sony camera recorded images as ARW file.

    So I downloaded Adobe DNG Converter. I've converted the ARW in a RAW file and opened it with camera raw.

    So far so good! I opened the FIRST photo with Photoshop. Just to test with 8 & 16-bit also. My camera supports 16-bit?

    I compared the RAW file with the jpg created again.

    Normally the quality of the raw file should be much better than the jpg compressed, I think.

    I took a quick glance at some other pictures of jpg (I shot in JPG Mode) and compared with the FIRST Images (RAW Mode).

    I have seen absolutely no difference between RAW and JPG.

    I also tried an exact correction of the tonal value at the two images.

    Even with the other image corrections. More details, noise, sharpness... even.

    With the Sony NEX-3 there was also a program included RAW that opens the ARW files.

    I do not see too many differences between RAW and jpg here.

    What I a m d INGO evil ?

    I must say that I am a beginner camera's gross. I tried for the first time. I thought it would be easier!

    The screenshot below see you an image on the left and a 16-bit DNG on the right.

    I have not found any difference!

    I would greatly appreciate your help and some good advice.

    Best regards Andi

    You have a lot of questions, and you will get countless different answers.

    Firstly, raw images are generally images 12 or 14 bits.  Your camera doesn't have to support that, because it's one of the benefits of shooting in raw.  Camera Raw opens the images in a 16-bit workspace.  Due to the additional bits and other factors as well, you're able to do a lot more with images.  If you have deep and strong or extremely brilliant shadows highlights overexposed, you will find that you can recover a lot more detail in these troubled when areas you work with raw image data.  The fact is that if you have perfectly exposed image and you're not overexposed areas or mitigate the shadows, it will be difficult to see the difference.

    If you really are not a bad thing.  You must do some experiments more and some studies to better understand yourself the advantage for the filming of raw images.  If you're like most people who contribute here, once you realize you has all the benefits of shooting raw images, you will probably stop shooting JPEG in total.

  • PlayMemories Mobile/Smart Remote - no video recording! Why Sony Action Cam it allows?

    Just bought a NEX-6. The Smart Remote application is the reason why I bought the camera in the hope that, with a future update to the app NEX-6 and 5R can not only turn the trigger but also switch VIDEO! Currently, even when the Smart remote control app is running, even if you manually press the video record on the camera button it gives a warning saying "video not available when running this application. Please leave app to record video.

    For some reason sony has decided to leave the video feature switches the NEX-6 and 5R. After closer investigation I noticed that the other camera to use PlayMemories Mobile apps is the Sony Action Cam.

    Cam Action also uses the PlayMemories application in the same way as the smart remote control application, but he is able to turn on/off the camera video. In addition to setting other parameters such as EV and interval shooting.

    Now, I know that the Action is primarily a video camera and it obvioustly need to toggle the video but I don't see why Sony has ruled out this possibility for the NEX-6 and 5R because they all use the same wifi technology and the same APPS! Why do the same application run differently for different cams.

    The only way to turn the video recording remotely at this point is to buy the Sony NEX Remote control version 2 that comes out.

    The reason why I want to toggle the video from the camera app is so that anyone can use tablet or a cell phone as a monitor of affordable directors for when the game etc.

    I subscribed to the youtube channel "Sony listens" and that's what the Sony Rep Said:

    «FlyLifeFilms, the quick answer is that the action cam is designed to be mounted and legs, so it can be used for action packed high where using the buttons on the camera would not easily be used.» The Nex6 is not designed to be used as such. So, it was a marketing and a design decision to include this item on the camera action and not on the Nex6. I forwarded your comments to the appropriate Department with impatience. Thank you

    Annother unhappy user NEX - 6a writes:

    "Scott, who is a response fairly unconvincing, because Sony is best known for the fragmentation of functionality of product in order to increase the sales of several products with different characteristics."

    The simple fact is the PlayMemories software already has the ability to start/stop video with the cam of the Action. This is why it is not a question of "update" the software to include functionality for NEX-5R/NEX-6 cameras, but rather simply activate it where Sony has strategically disabled for reasons of the profit motive. »

    I hope sony their app updates, or at least let us know why they would allow the Action Sony cam to have this feature when top model NEX cameras turn it off knowing that they both use the same application!

    Dear Sony,

    Please allow at least these features in the application:

    1 start/stop recording a video.

    2. change shooting mode, shutter speed, Aperture, ISO

    Or better yet, like facets of the touch screen of the camera interface and let us control every parameter. I have to pay for this version.

  • How do you use the Sony NEX 5R as a webcam for live streaming?

  • Sony NEX - 5N AVCHD files

    Sony NEX - 5N is a great compact devices which has the ability to capture HD video in 1080/60 p. This makes for smooth movement. With the recent update to Final Cut Pro X and AMC 6, hoping that the two programs would be add support for AVCHD 60 p/50 p; seems, however, that he did not. Therefore, work with the video from the cameras filming sequences AVCHD 2.0 60 p (like the Sony NEX - 5N) brings a bit of a problem when you import files from my camera. So how do you solve the problem?

    The quick solution is to wrap the Sony NEX - 5N 1080/60 p AVCHD files. As to keep the HD video quality and to avoid rendering, I would use the codec ProRes of Apple the FCP and the DNxHD codec in AMC. The two codecs are the best codec for each editing software, so the best way is to convert the Sony NEX - 5N format AVCHD to the ProRes FORMATS for FCP or Transcode AVCHD to MOV DNxHD for Avid Media Composer on Mac.

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Creative-Suite/KB/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html

    1. check which version of ACR is installed with your PSE

    Check follow this:

    Windows: Open the editor of the elements of the Welcome screen, then goto help > about Plugin > Camer gross

    Mac: Open the items, then menu editor Photoshop Elements goto > about plug-in > Camera raw and see the version

    Check the version, if its less than 6.5, then you need to update because the cameras you're usning, it requires 6.5 version to work with PES 10 ACR

    To update the items goto editor and and then goto help and update, this will be posted the updates available for you 10 PES which will include ACR as well, once the update is completed and installed, then restart the editor PES 10 and then check the version once more to be sure.

    OK to load a Sony Action Cam (4K) by plugging the USB microphone (supplied with the camera) in a model of adapter apple 1385?

    Hi there, 2Y4!

    I highly recommend that you charge your Sony Action Cam with the original charger that comes with your device, or another genuine Sony charger that fits in your Sony Action Cam to load. Shippers using other brands is not recommended, as they could damage the battary pack and/or the Sony Action Cam.
