Sony FS100 Firmware Update; users please give feedback

[billy]

I am hearing good things regarding the latest firmware update, if anyone here has anything to say about it please chime in:

-increased dynamic range with the new profiles? better highlight roll off?

-how is the autofocus on the A series lenses? Is there a fast prime with autofocus that works well?

-any other improvements worth noting?

Billy,

We haven't tested it but will soon.  I am still hunting down the elusive new e to a adpater and found it at B+H

Now that the firmware is out I'll get the adapter and when schedule permits give it a test.

I think one of the missed upgrades to the new firmware is the ratio change and being able to upload looks from computer to camera. 

Both of those are quite interesting.

IMO

I think the AF is OK but Ive read two reports of the MF being horrid..
