Ah great hopefully it won't be long before it hits the sim free handsets.
I'm looking forward to your thoughts on the update

Guys, for those of you who enabled HDR and seeing ghost images it is normal as this functions take 3 pictures at a fast rate - one under-exposed, second normal exposed and 3rd picture overexposed (I do not know whats the EV though) and merge to create a photo. Therefore if the car moves, leaves rushing, anything moves, it WILL surely come out ghosting. Therefore disable HDR for those who does not want ghosting in their photos. Use this function ONLY if you have VERY stable hands with super bright enviroment, OR STILL landscape. |

Just done a very quick low light shot with 2 Z1's. One with the new firmware and one with the old and yes there was a difference on the new firmware colours seemed to be more accurate with much less noise the camera opened faster on the new firmware too. Will take more photos with the new firmware and post them later on today

Wel well! I went into a store and asked to try (again) the Z1... And also the Z Jltra and the Z...! And there's a good difference between z and Z1... The latter is better with colours and a little with viewing angle... But the difference between ZU and Z1 is BIG!!! The viewing angles, the warmth of the screen and the colour are soooo better! I'll wait till there are only the Best Screen for the Z1 in stock!!! Hoping for IPS! |

I have just recorded and uploaded a short video to YouTube of a very low light video taken on my Xperia Z1 which is now using the new firmware. I had the scene selected to night mode with steadyshot turned on. Let me know what you guys think.
