Nikon Z6 and Z7 get eye autofocus for animals with firmware 3.0

megaadmin — Tue, 18 Feb 2020 10:21:55 +0000

Nikon has released firmware version 3.0 for the Z6 and Z7 today. In addition to animal eye recognition, the update provides support for Lexar CFExpress memory cards. There are also new features for the Z50.

Version 3.0 adds animal face/eye autofocus to the Z6 and Z7, allowing the cameras to detect the eyes and faces of dogs and cats. This feature is especially interesting for animal photography.

The subject tracking when shooting in AF-C mode has also been adapted. It now largely corresponds to the 3D tracking of Nikon’s digital SLR cameras, making it more user-friendly.

Firmware update of FIMI X8 SE fixes image quality problems with RAW files

megaadmin — Thu, 17 Oct 2019 09:56:41 +0000

The firmware update for the FIMI X8 SE published on 16.10.2019 fixes color cast and vignetting of RAW files. In comparison, image quality has improved considerably.

After first tests of the RAW files from my Fimi X8 SE (Amazon Affiliate Link) we can confirm today that yesterday’s firmware update fixed the problems of blue color casts and blurriness at the image edge, also called vignetting.
There is still room for improvement, but a step in the right direction has been taken. It is good to see that the manufacturer continues to work on this important topic.

Nikon D7500, D850 and D5600 after firmware update 1.10 with fully functional WiFi

megaadmin — Thu, 09 May 2019 18:22:29 +0000

Nikon has released the firmware update of version 1.10 for the cameras D7500, D850 and D5600. Nikon users of D7500, D850 and D5600 now receive the long-awaited open Wi-Fi, with which now also connections to other devices than only the SnapBridge app are possible.

After Nikon recently published Firmware 1.20 for the D500 with fully functional WiFi (you can find my post about that her e), these new functions are now also coming to the above mentioned cameras.

After the camera has been updated to the new firmware, we can find the data of the WiFi network that the D7500, D850 or D5600 is using in the menu under “System” “Wi-Fi” “Establish Wi-Fi connection”. With this data, we can now dial into the camera’s network using a PC, Mac or mobile device and then remotely control it using any software such as “qdslrdashboard” or “ControlMyCamera”.

The new firmware for D7500 1.10 is available at this link: https://downloadcenter.nikonimglib.com/en/products/352/D7500.html

The new firmware for D850 1.10 is available at this link: https://downloadcenter.nikonimglib.com/en/products/359/D850.html

Nikon D500 after firmware update 1.20 with fully functional WiFi

megaadmin — Mon, 29 Apr 2019 18:22:29 +0000

Nikon has released the firmware update of version 1.20.

After installing the update on my camera, I couldn’t believe my eyes.
Apparently Nikon finally gave the D500 the long-awaited open Wi-Fi, with which now also connections to other devices than only the SnapBridge app are possible.

In the release notes of the 1.20 firmware update, however, there are no references to this change, only support for the SnapBridge app is mentioned here:

But in fact, after the camera has been updated to the new firmware, we can find the data of the WLAN network that the D500 is using in the menu under “System” “Wi-Fi” “Establish Wi-Fi connection”. With this data, we can now dial into the camera’s network using a PC, Mac or mobile device and then remotely control it using any software such as “qdslrdashboard” or “ControlMyCamera”.

Nikon D5, D850, D500, Z6 and Z7 get support for CFexpress memory cards

megaadmin — Tue, 09 Apr 2019 20:40:38 +0000

With a press release from 14.02.2019 Nikon quietly and secretly announces a firmware update, with which the cameras D5, D850, D500, Z6 and Z7 can also be operated with CFexpress memory cards.

The slot for XQD cards built into the cameras is identical in construction to that of the CFexpress format. The new supported format gives photographers the possibility to use the much faster CFexpress memory cards compared to the XQD card as soon as the first CFexpress cards will be available in early summer 2019. The new CFexpress format should not be confused with the old Compact Flash cards – they have nothing to do with each other, even if the abbreviation “CF” suggests a similarity.

According to a Sony press release, the CFexpress cards (Amazon Affiliate Link) are characterized by extreme robustness:

withstands a force of 70 Newton
temperature-resistant
insensitive to X-rays
antistatic
integrated UV protection

I myself did not use the XQD memory card slot of the D500 as a backup slot in the past because the price of the XQD cards was too expensive for me. I don’t have much hope that the new CFexpress cards will be cheaper than the XQD cards. After all, the new CFexpress cards are a bit more expensive than the XQD cards in terms of speed, and the manufacturers will certainly have to pay for that. In addition, the cards will only be available with 128 GB, 256 GB and 512 GB capacity, the inexpensive 64GB variant should be omitted at least at Sony.

Update January 2020: SanDisk, my favorite SD-Card manufacturer, has published CFexpress cards (Amazon Affiliate Link) with 64GB, 128GB, 256GB and 512GB as well. These will be my choice, take a look at them here: San Disk CFexpress cards (Amazon Affiliate Link)

There’s still one small glimmer of hope: Maybe the “old” XQD cards will become cheaper after the launch of the CFexpress cards (Amazon Affiliate Link).

Comparison of speeds

The CFexpress cards (Amazon Affiliate Link) achieve a significantly higher write and read performance than the XQD cards. A comparison with my previously preferred SD card shows the speed advantage particularly clearly. For comparison a fast, “old” Compact Flash card again.
If you don’t want to record 4K videos with 60fps (which the above mentioned cameras can’t do), you probably won’t use the maximum possible write rate of the XQD card or the CFexpress cards (Amazon Affiliate Link).

SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB SD Card: 170 MB/s Read, 90 MB/s Write
Compact Flash SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB: 160 MB/s read, 150 MB/s write (just for comparison, has nothing in common with CFexpress)
Sony Professional XQD G-Series 64 GB: 440 MB/s Read, 400 MB/s Write
Sony CFexpress Type B Tough 128 GB: 1700 MB/s Reading, 1480 MB/s Writing

Availability of the new firmware

When the update will be released is still unclear, more information can be found in the original Nikon press release:
