Firmware Friday+1: Blackmagic, Canon, Fuji, Nikon, Ricoh, Sigma and Sony offer updates aplenty


 
 

This week's Firmware Friday roundup arrives just a little late, as your humble editor's been under the weather the past few days, and I didn't manage to finish writing it last night. In part, that was down to the amount of news there was to cover -- in the past seven days, we've seen updates from Blackmagic, Canon,...

Firmware Friday: Eye AF and more for Nikon Z6, Z7; stability improvements for Sony Alpha-series


 
 

This week's Firmware Friday roundup is a bit of an unusual one, in that while there are plenty of cameras receiving new firmware in the past seven days -- for 10 models, to be exact -- we actually don't have a huge amount to discuss.

Sony A6400 announced, alongside souped up A9 firmware

 
 

Sony has just announced its first APS-C model in many years in the form of the (somewhat oddly named) A6400. We say oddly because both the A6300 and the A6500 were announced in 2016, and it's therefore not overly clear (at least from the name) where this model exactly sits. We've been told by some that it's the logical...

Our final Firmware Friday roundup of 2018 is a biggie, bringing with it news of close to two dozen different camera updates for models from Fujifilm, Olympus, Panasonic, Sigma and Sony.
