Firmware upgrade for KonicaMinolta Alpha/Dynax/Maxxum cameras

The petition was closed for new signatures on July 21. 2006 at 11pm CET

To:  Sony AMC Division

We, the owners of KonicaMinolta Alpha/Dynax/Maxxum cameras, expect from Sony to offer support for our existing gear. Our cameras are lacking some features that could be easily incorporated through firmware upgrade.

For Alpha/D/M 7D only:
- Improvements as seen on the 5D (ZoneMatching, Raw magnification, write times, AF and exposure)

For Alpha/D/M 5D only:
- Bigger zoom in playback mode

For Alpha/D/M 5D and 7D:
- Standard exif information about the image rotation - not only in the MakerNote
- Flash without pre-flash (or make it faster)
- Noise reduction algorithm should replace hot pixels with surrounding color, not pure black

We are offering Sony our trust, a high value in DSLR market.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
