Now, via a free upgrade, it just got even better. Sony has rolled out a significant upgrade its not a firmware update but an upgrade license that simply adds 4K / 120 video (Long GOP compression), and 1080 / 240 video to the camera's S&Q (slow motion / quick motion) mode. The 1080 / 240 addition is a 10x slow motion video effect and will provide greater versatility in post for creative speed ramping effects, and slowing down fast-paced action where it's otherwise hard to take in the details. The ZV-E1 was already the most powerful vlogging camera available that is a trailblazer in how AI is transforming how our cameras work , with auto-tracking features that make life easier for modest film crews. It is also the cheapest way to get the stellar 4K sensor that is found in the significantly more expensive Sony A7S III . And now, thanks to this upgrade, the ZV-E1 matches the max 4K video frame rate of its pricier sibling. We knew the update was coming when the ZV-E1 was launched Sony publicly said so and now that day has come. We've shared below how you can upgrade your ZV-E1 with these new video record modes. (Image credit: Future) How do I update my ZV-E1? The ZV-E1 license is obtained via Sony Creators Cloud for which you need an account, but there is no charge for the updated license. If youd rather not create an account, you can upgrade your ZV-E1 without signing in through a three-step process that requires your camera's 7-digit serial number, and youll need a memory card to download the license file and transfer it to your camera. Once you've inserted the memory card containing the license file into your camera, on-screen instructions will guide you through the rest of the process. ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://www.techradar.com/cameras/video-cameras/sony-just-gave-the-worlds-best -vlogging-camera-two-big-free-upgrades --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
