Addition of the “Scene Mode” for photographic expression with a difference
The addition of the new “Scene Mode” provides 5 types of mode to expand your photographic expression. Choose from “Soft Focus”, “Cross Process”, “Toy Camera”, “Miniaturize”, and “High Contrast Monochrome”. Simply press the shutter release to take a truly unique shot.
Addition of “Target Follow Function” to AE/AF target movement function
The “Target follow function” is added to the target movement function that locks the exposure or focus on a specific part of the photographic subject. When the camera follows the subject, this function automatically continues to adjust to the target position, so that the subject is in focus at precisely the moment you want to shoot.
“Reset/Cancel” function added for AE/AF target move
By pressing the cancel button during AE/AF target move, the image monitor returns to the central position. When the cancel button is pressed again, the target move mode is cancelled.
“Magnified playback function” added that magnifies the center of the target moved position
When magnifying the playback screen, the center of the position moved to as the AE/AF target can be the center of the magnification
< Enhanced function only for the GR LENS A12 28mm/GR LENS A12 50mm camera unit >
Exposure correction and white balance can be assigned to the zoom button.
In the key custom settings, exposure correction or white balance functions can be assigned to the zoom button.
By half-pressing the shutter button and following the set subject, this function continues to adjust to the subject position so that the subject is in focus at precisely the moment you want to shoot.
Addition of “AF/Target Follow AF” switching function to the Fn. button
“AF/Target Follow AF” is added as one of the functions that can be registered to the Fn (function) 1 or Fn2 button. If the focus method is set to “multi AF”, “spot AF”, or “Target follow AF”, the focus method can be switched between “multi AF” and “Target follow AF”, or between “Spot AF” and “Target follow AF”.
Addition of setting change function to ADJ. lever for scene mode
When shooting in a scene mode such as “dynamic range double shot”, “cross process”, or “high contrast monochrome”, the new function enables the ADJ. lever to be used to change settings such as ISO sensitivity and image quality.
Addition of a selection function to the white balance manual setting capture area
When setting the white balance manually, the capture area used as the standard for white balance can be selected from “Entire frame” or “Spot”.
Electronic level display for self-timer
When using the self-timer, the electronic level continues to be displayed after the self-timer is started.

A magenta tint was present at the bottom of still images captured at high sensitivities after shooting in live view mode or recording movies for an extended length of time. The occurrence of this magenta tint has been reduced.
When images captured with continuous shooting in live view mode were played back, in some very rare cases, some of the images were not properly displayed. This issue has been resolved.
When shooting in live view mode with AF-area mode set to Subject-tracking AF, in some very rare cases, the focus point slipped off the subject with autofocusing after the intended tracking subject had been selected. This issue has been resolved.
When images edited using camera retouch functions were played back in calendar playback mode, they were assigned to dates based not on the date of capture, but rather the date on which they were edited. This issue has been resolved.
When white balance for RAW images created using the camera’s image overlay function was fine tuned with Capture NX 2 or ViewNX 2, the images acquired a magenta cast. This issue has been resolved.
A portion of the error message displayed when live view mode could not be initiated because the camera’s internal temperature was too high has been revised.
When Noise reduction in the shooting menu is set to On, operation is as follows.
Processing to reduce noise is performed at all ISO sensitivity settings. Noise reduction is especially effective with shooting at high ISO sensitivities.
Processing to reduce noise is performed immediately after shooting in any of the situations noted below. While processing to reduce noise is performed, “Job nr” blinks in the viewfinder display. Shooting is not possible until “Job nr” is no longer displayed. The time required for noise reduction processing is roughly equal to the shutter speed used to capture the image.
Shooting at shutter speeds slower than approximately 8 seconds
Shooting at high ISO sensitivities when the internal temperature of the camera is high
The Help information displayed for the Noise reduction item in the shooting menu has also been revised in accordance with these modifications.
Bright spots were sometimes noticeable with live view mode or movie recording of especially dark scenes or subjects. Occurrence of this issue has been reduced. Click here to download
