  • Exposure can lag after a long focus move outside AF-C. Sony: “When the autofocus mode is set to something other than AF-C and the amount of focus movement is large until the focus is achieved, sometimes the exposure is incorrect after focus is achieved. The correct exposure can be obtained by pressing the shutter button halfway again or using AEL again.”
  • Update the camera to firmware 3.10 for correct lens names in files. Sony: “Exif lens names will not be recorded correctly. Update the system software of the camera to Ver. 3.10 or later to ensure correct display.”
