You can change mode while it’s still buffering it seems. This is good news.

Thanks Alex.
I have a question for you....I noticed in one of the A1 review vids that all three wheels show up in the Custom Key menus. Is it now possible (without resorting to My Dial) to have Aperture stay on the lower Command Dial with ISO up on the upper rear dial?
I currently do this with My Dial but that requires me to waste a Custom button for Toggling into My Dial and I have to do that every time I turn on the camera.
Thanks

That is true...except there was no upper rear dial in those days so it was still an issue. With the R5 I have the dials set as I want them and I don't have to waste a Custom Key to toggle them on every time I power up the camera. It just seems like it would be the simplest thing for Sony to do...give us free range on what each dial does via the Custom Key (they already do this via My Dial) or just allow the My Dial setting to stay active on power off/on. My intrigue was piqued when I noticed in a couple videos showing the Custom Key Menu that the upper two dials now show up. If those only have the option to do Aperture and SS as a permanent setting I will be disappointed as we already had a menu item to switch which one did Aperture and which did SS. Rant over

I own a Sony 10-18mm from when I used my Nex cameras. I was wondering if I can use the 10-18mm (apsc) and force it as a full frame lens ? I have read that from 13-16mm vignetting is no longer an issue. So the question is, with the Alpha1 can I select what the viewfinder sees? whether apsc or full frame although the lens is apsc ?

The aperture and shutter dial are now both available to map to anything you want.

No guarantee but shouldn't be an issue, at least is it not using the SEL10-18 on my a7riv or a9. Glad to see another person who sees this lens as a lightweight gem worth keeping all these years.

Would be a first if so. CIZ has never worked in RAW to my knowledge.
