Sony firmware updates, do they do them?
  • I have owned the a6000 for quite some time. I love it, it has brought back the joy of photography to me. I recently bought the a5100 primarily to use as a video camera because of it's 50mbps xavc-s. I sent an email to sony inquiring if they ever release a firmware update. I'd like to see them give the a6000 50mbps xavc-s. This was there response

    Thank you for contacting the Sony Alpha Email Response Team.

    I'm glad to know that you enjoy the camera and very happy with it. With regard to your inquiry, we don't have an information yet about the availability of the  50mbps XAVC-S feature on the A6000 camera model.

    However, you can always go to the website from time to time to check for the availability of this feature, including the firmware update of A6000 camera model. Just click the link below:
