Firmware Improvements:


 Eliminate the emphasis of edges in yellow or white portion of images when exposed from high intensity light source such as neon bulb. (This problem was fixed by V1.03 and it’s included in V1.10.)

 Eliminate camera lock-up which were occasional when holding down any of the following keys: PREV/ NEXT/ F.FWD/ F.REV/ PAUSE/ STOP/ THUMBNAIL.

 Correction of the CDL metadata recorded. The value of “Gamma for CDL” which is stated by section 5.4.21 on SMPTE RDD18 was recorded to the wrong location; this has been corrected.

 Audio information was improved to let the Content Browser software reflect the input channels selection of the camera.

 Correction of metadata packet for the Time/Date section, to be compliant with SMPTE ST330 Unique Material Identifier (UMID).

 Improved playback of salvaged clips in the camera.

 Improved playback of salvaged clip in the Content Browser (through improved camera file information).

 Improved in-camera playback of clips recorded through the use of Content Browser V2.0.0.

I am installing v1.1 right now and will confirm, but the release notes don't indicate so.

If not that's will be a big disappointment to wait five months more !

Note that disappointment on the consolidated feedback thread on the Sony forum. They are definitely reading that thread!
