Changes in this version

• The exposure control program used in Smart Photo Selector mode, or in shooting mode with Exposure mode set to P Program Auto or Scene Auto Selector, has been revised for faster shutter speeds to prevent blur.
• The automatic white balance has been improved.
• Exposure accuracy when ISO sensitivity is set to Auto (100–3200), Auto (100–800), or Auto (100–400) is improved when shooting with the optional Speedlight SB-N5 where subjects are shot at close range. photographed.

The following issues have been resolved

• An error message was sometimes displayed during interval shooting, which prevented the specified number of shots from being captured.
• When the camera was turned on by releasing the retractable lens barrel lock on applicable lenses, there was sometimes a slight delay before the shutter could be released.
