What Camera Manufacturers Need to Learn from Fuji
#12
I think I second many "critic" comments on this thread, but my evaluation is really related to the nature of the firmware improvement. For instance, there is a set of "things" that are borderline between "bug" and "feature", and I'd like to see them corrected.

 

For instance: with the a6000 you can have three presets. Really useful, as I programmed #1 for stills and #2 for objects in motion. Useful not only because there is a lot of things that need to be different (priority mode, shutter, aperture, focusing mode, etc...), but also because there are circumstances in which you're shooting at landscapes and all of a sudden a flock of birds approaches, and it's possible you simply don't have the time to quickly change each setting.

 

For stills I want to have the auto-focusing command separated from the shutter, so I can focus and recompose; for objects in motion I want them activated by the trigger at the same time. Well, the relative setting is not part of the presets  Sad. When I fast switch I also have to navigate to a specific menu item, and lose seconds.

 

For Sony it's a feature, for me a bug. It wouldn't cost but a little to fix it in a firmware update, and I would have appreciated it.
