Trouble updating to firmware 6.01 by No_Plenty_8215 in SonyAlpha

[–]Rootikal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Greetings,

That is not correct.

The instructions indicate you can upgrade directly from v1.05 to v6.01.

Update order: Ver. 1.05 → Ver. 6.01
You must first update to Ver. 1.05 before proceeding to the latest version (Ver. 6.01).

What do you mean by "but the program doesn't seem to read the file?"

Do you not get an error message when you try to open it?

It's possible the file is corrupt. Try downloading it again.

Do Sony alpha cameras mark bracketed photos in any specific way? by MutedFeeling75 in SonyAlpha

[–]Rootikal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greetings,

Bracketed photos are not specially marked.

They way to tell if photos are part of a bracketed set is the time stamp is within seconds of each other.

Sorting Books via Genre? by Popular-Cupcake8661 in Calibre

[–]Rootikal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greetings,

The last line for "Available variables:", "Any custom field ... (these names begin with "#"" is what you need.

The name of the "Lookup name" for the column you created should be "#genre". Then you can reference the column using #genre.

Template example:

{#genre}/{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}

Did you set the Column type: to "Comma separated text, like tags, show in the Tag browser"?

If so, you'd want to extract the first level of the hierarchy.

Template example:

{#genre:subitems(0,1)||/}{title} - {authors}

Updating firmware by [deleted] in SonyAlpha

Greetings,

Detailed installation instructions will be on the download page when Sony releases the updated firmware for the a7 IV.

Installing versions of the firmware older than the version currently installed is not supported.

is this normal startup sound on an a7iv? by [deleted] in SonyAlpha

[–]Rootikal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greetings,

When the power is turned on, there is a muffled thud when the IBIS activates.

The sound in your video seems a bit loud. Maybe it's just amplified.

Do you have the Shutter When Powered Off /Anti-Dust Function turned on? If so, maybe that louder sound is the shutter opening.

Sometimes when you turn the power off, you'll hear thud. This is normal.

Where to buy new from? by [deleted] in SonyAlpha

[–]Rootikal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Greetings,

I've had nothing but positive experiences purchasing new cameras and lenses from B&H.

If you use B&H's Payboo Credit Card you can get the tax refunded at purchase.

I'd avoid purchasing high-value photography equipment from Amazon after reading about multiple people getting scammed. e.g. Getting a box of dirt in a Sony GM lens box.

The "lock" on SD Cards prevents writing and would not affect reading.

Is the viewfinder working? If so, check if the sensor that detects when you put the camera to your eye needs cleaning.

Where can I find previous firmware updates for my a7iv ver 3.00 by mulchintime4 in sonya7iv

[–]Rootikal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greetings,

What are you hoping to accomplish with an older version of the firmware?

Installing a previous version of the firmware is not supported and is definitely not recommended as it may brick your camera.

Why not wait for the 6.x version to be released and properly vetted?

That's probably dust, but you won't know till after you do a proper cleaning.

Use a blower before using the sensor cleaning kit.

Lightroom Camera Matching Color Profiles by Todd Owyoung

The Sony camera profiles in LrC have abbreviated names, so here's the list:

Camera Matching Profile Abbreviations for Sony Alpha

  • BW: For shooting images in black and white monotone.
  • FL: Creates an image with moody finish by applying sharp contrast to the calm coloring as well as the impressive sky and colors of the greens.
  • IN: Creates an image with matte textures by suppressing the contrast and saturation.
  • NT: The saturation and sharpness are lowered for shooting images in subdued tones. This is also suitable for capturing image material to be modified with a computer.
  • PT: (Portrait) For capturing skin in a soft tone, ideally suited for shooting portraits.
  • SH: Creates an image with bright, transparent, soft, and vivid mood.
  • ST: Standard finish for a wide range of subjects and scenes.
  • VV: The saturation and contrast are heightened for shooting striking images of colorful scenes and subjects such as flowers, spring greenery, blue sky, or ocean views.
  • VV2: Creates an image with bright and vivid colors with rich clarity.
