Indeed already downloaded. On the rear screen now are I think the FN icons permanently, they are quite useful when I have the rear screen open. I usually have the screen turned in on itself and ignore it a lot of the time.

So when I do open the screen, sometimes this is useful to have those icons and sometimes NOT. Is it possible to change this?

Try pressing the display button.

I normally shoot with the screen closed also.

Thanks 4 presses of the Disp button gets me away from that, so thank you, even if I normally shoot with the screen closed, I learnt something thanks to you.

Has anyone got any idea what the new version brings to the a75r mine is still on original version , as the camera gets very little use

I think us “mature” photographers tend to shoot with the view finder, harkening back to our film days. I’v noticed many younger folks using the full screen.
