Sony has released a new firmware update for its α9
full-frame mirrorless camera (model ILCE-9), delivering key functions
such as Real-Time Eye AF for animals[i],
Interval Shooting and compatibility with RMT-P1BT.[ii]
The version 6.00
update enables Sony’s AI-driven Real-Time Eye AF technology to now detect both
animals and human subjects, with an option to select either animal or human Eye
AF mode depending on the shooting situation. Time-lapse videos can also be
created through the use of the Interval Shooting function.
In addition to the new functionality, the update
improves the overall stability of the camera and makes it more user-friendly,
allowing photographers to assign ‘My Menu’ to appear when first selecting the
menu button. It is now also possible to select the Focus Frame Colour allowing
users to choose between red, grey or the standard green.
Lastly, the upgrade allows operation with the
wireless remote commander RMT-P1BT
providing a solution to remote shooting.
The Version 6.00 firmware upgrade is downloadable
for free on the Sony Support site[iii].
