When an update is available for my iPhone, I receive a notification – and soon a handful of Sony cameras will have a similar capability. On April 15, Sony released firmware updates for the Sony ZV-E10, A7 III, A7R IV, and A7C that include stability fixes and the ability for the camera to display a notification when new firmware is available.
The update allows the camera itself to display a notification when a new firmware update is available, a feature that requires an internet connection to work. The feature is designed to help photographers keep software up-to-date without constantly checking the Sony Support website.
