I’ll have to check that. Thanks.

Some of the Sony updates put the camera back to factory settings.

Iain, some of the other bank settings have also changed as well as the Mode setting.  I think it changes the Preview exposure setting in viewfinder value as well as I had mine set to Always but it was changed from this to one of the other values.

That’s odd as I’ve been through mine and nothing has changed.

I guess it may vary as to what the individual customisations are.

Yes I updated to the new v3.0 firmware this morning.

Iain, this firmware should be really good for you as it allows focus limiting which great for birding.

I noticed that. I will get a chance of trying that later.

How are you getting on with Nikon Z now, Iain?

Would be interested in your perspective …..comparing the Sony A1 with the Nikon Z.
