New Firmware Updates for the a6300 and a6500 - Alpha Shooters

Last updated: December 24, 2020 / Published: February 1, 2018 by Timothy Mayo - Leave a Comment

New firmware updates are out for the Sony a6300 and a6500. The updates add support for the new Sony E 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 OSS lens and improve overall stability.

You can download them from the following links:

US/Canada

a6500 (v1.05 download)

a6300 (v2.01 download)

UK

a6500 (v1.05 download)

a6300 (v2.01 download)

Whether or not they will also release firmware updates for the a5000, a5100 and a6000 to support the new 18-135mm lens remains to be seen. Perhaps there are no issues with these cameras and a firmware update will not be required.

About Timothy Mayo

I started Alpha Shooters back in 2017 to share my own experiences as a photographer shooting with Sony Alpha cameras, lenses and accessories.

I enjoy wildlife photography the most but will happily point my camera at pretty much anything.

As well as this blog you’ll also find a community forum which provides members with a friendly and safe place to share images and ask questions.

You can find out more about my story here or follow me on Instagram if you wish.

I also have a YouTube Channel but haven’t published much content recently due to the demands of my one and three year old boys.
