A9 questions regarding playback/flagging

[vultaggio]

So - recently jumped over to Sony with the A9, and so far the camera is making a huge impact to my workflow. Admittedly I've only worked with it for a week, but so far so good. Easy to adapt to and figure out, great IQ, and surprisingly easy to handle.

 

My one nagging question for sony users is this, however. With my Canon system I've grown used to flagging/starring/rating/ranking images in camera - made for quicker editing back home, and easier for me to ensure my assistant uploaded the right files when I used a card runner. To be clearer, I'd be shooting in the field, and use the "Rate" button to star the images (ranked 1-5). When my asst got back and loaded the files into Adobe bridge, he was able to quickly see my selects, denoted by a star-ranking in the software that came over in the metadata.

 

I've scoured the instruction book and online, but have yet to see if the firmware allows anything like this on the a9. Anyone know if this is possible? It doesn't sound like much, but in a day of shooting thousands of images it makes a sizable dent in my workflow.

 

Thanks!
