    I got the tool, set the USB to MTP mode, downloaded the plugin, was able to run the tool but got the network error. Then I looked in the list of supported cameras and found out it's compatible up to NEX6 cameras. Any news on whether this tool will work on NEX7 cameras?

    I totally agree. If you can get this NTSC/PAL message to be disable. It will be awesome.

    @ma1co Thanks for your great work.

    When changing the setting from PAL to NTSC (on PAL devices) and visa versa on NTSC devices, the Sony digicams come up with the nasty message 'Running on NTSC' which needs to be confirmed before the camera can be used. Do you thing you can change this to suppress this absolutely unneeded message?

    Very nice job ma1co, first working solution for the language limitation on gen3 devices, and it's very easy to use!

    Best birthday present for me ever! Thanks!

    Nice job ! I just wandered if it would be possible to fix the recurent problem on the A7 that initilize some settings when you change the battery. For me, it turn on the "AF with shutter" / "AF w/ shutter" setting. And it's rellay annoying !

    Wonderful. In my opinion it would be great. if it would be possible to change the recording to 60p with region europe, and not only 50p.

    Great work! Is it possible to hack the usb charging when shooting, like the a7sii?

    Trying to install this on my A7sII after following all instructions but I keep getting a SSL Device error or Network error!

    Good thing to understand that work is based on code and stuff made by many people for quite a time (last few years).

  • piotremanuelpiotremanuel

    All the wonderful, hard working coders - I would donate - it's huge for me! Thanks dudes!

  • ItalianshoxItalianshox

    Ma1co I just wanted to say that many people would be willing to donate if you can keep working on this and give us more features

    Hi everybody, great news for Sony users and good job and thank you to the devs!!! I have one issue that bother me a lot: I shoot in manual and the red illuminator assist light that help me to focus in dark scenes won't work in manual... This is a Sony limitation. Do you think you'll be able to make it possible to work? Thanks again!!!

    Happy overheating

  • spreenispreeni

    @ma1co Thank you very much for your work. This patch is easy to handle and works very well with my A7s (firmware 3.1).

  • ntsanntsan

    Yeah A7 series can handle heat much better than APS-C model it seems, the A6300/A6000/A5100/A5000 all overheat..

  • IronFilmIronFilm

    @oscillian I have had the A5100, it overheats. The A6000 is meant to not be as bad, but even it overheats as well....

    This mod could be great for an A7s however.

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    Which aps-c model would you pick that doesn't overheat though?

    Samsung :-) NX500 records 160Mbit HEVC videos.

  • oscillianoscillian

    Excellent! Which aps-c model would you pick that doesn't overheat though?

  • RKMRKM

    Nice work! Also handy for imported US models and set local language

  • 00zz00zz

    nice one. Is there also an easy way to unlock playmemories on a Chinese NEX-6 without entpacking / changing bin to europe + calculate crc + compile?

  • IronFilmIronFilm

    Wow, this is big big news! Great for people who might be importing Sony cameras from Japan.
