The following video presents Sony | α | α9 Unveil:
“In one game-changing leap the revolutionary image sensor and high-speed processing of the α9 reach performance levels far beyond the incremental improvements gained through decades of mechanical refinement. There is no viewfinder blackout. Continuous shooting speeds exceed those possible with mechanical shutters. Higher shutter speeds are available, and all without noise or vibration. The ability to keep an eye on moving subjects at all times leads to faultless AF and AE tracking, and the photographer’s view is consistently up-to-date with an absolute minimum of lag. In short, the digital promise has been realized at last. #Sonyalpha“
Recently, Sony released the Firmware Update Version 1.10 (9/27/2017) for α9 (Alpha 9) Interchangeable Lens Camera body (Model # ILCE-9).
- This model is also known as: A9, A9/B, A9B, ALPHA9, ALPHA9/B, ALPHA9B, ILCE9, ILCE9/B.
- Serial Number Location: On the bottom of the camera.
This update (version 1.10) provides the following benefits:
- Improves image quality and overall stability of the camera
- Adds support for the Eye AF function for A-mount lenses using the LA-EA3 adapter.
Note: This function is only for A-mount lenses which adapt to maximum 10fps or 8fps tracking AF continuous shooting. - Resolves a condition where RAW files disappear when SDX/microSDXC memory cards are connected to certain smartphones.
Note: RAW data recorded with firmware version 1.00 or 1.01 could disappear. It’s recommended to backup all RAW data recorded with firmware version 1.00 or 1.01 even if updating to version 1.10.
