UPDATE: Sony has now resumed downloads for the latest Sony A7R V firmware, after
suspending it over fears that it could brick cameras.



Along with pulling the A7R V firmware, Sony also suspended the day-and-date
update for the Sony FX30 fearing that the same issue might affect both cameras.
However, the FX30 firmware is now available again alongside this one.



"We suspended the Ver. 3.00 software release on 09-13-2024 due to some products
failing to update," notes Sony.

"However, after taking the necessary measures, we resumed the release on
10-09-2024. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. If your
camera successfully updated to Ver. 3.00, you may continue using it without
issue."

Personally I would advise waiting a week or two before updating your camera,
just in case there are still issues that need ironing out. However, the full
release notes are below and you can download the new firmware here.



…

UPDATE (Sep 16 2024) Sony has suspended firmware Ver 3.00 for the Sony A7R V,
which was released last week. If you have downloaded the firmware do not install
it, as the manufacturer warns that your camera might become inoperable.

"We confirmed that some ILCE-7RM5 cameras may not start up after installing the
version 3.00 update," wrote Sony in an update on its A7R V support page, titled
Important Notice. "We have suspended the update while we investigate the cause."

Sony has also suspended its recent Sony FX30 firmware (which launched day and
date with the A7R V update) that added much-requested shutter angle control to
both cameras.

This is another black eye for the company when it comes to firmware, after
similarly suspending a new update for the Sony A1 in March. The issue of
firmware bricking an FX30 also made the rounds last month, when a YouTuber was
told he would need to pay $700 to fix his camera after a firmware update
apparently rendered it useless.

ORIGINAL STORY (Sep 13 2024): A chunky new firmware update has been released for
the Sony A7R V that unlocks a slew of new features for the camera – including
some supremely helpful connectivity and cloud functions.

Crucially, the latest firmware (Ver 3.00) means that you will no longer be able
to connect to the Imaging Edge Mobile app and will have to migrate to the
Creators' App (for which you'll need Ver 2.5.0 in order to avail the new
firmware features).

Here's the full list of benefits and improvements you can expect.


FIRMWARE UPDATE VER. 3.00

• You can now continue shooting while transferring captured photos and videos to
a smartphone or tablet

• Transfer to smartphones and tablets can now be resumed even if interrupted in
the middle of a transfer

• You can now transfer only the differences that have not yet been transferred
to your smartphone or tablet, or add videos to be transferred during the
transfer process

• Allows you to upload camera images directly to the Creators' Cloud app
Notes: Settings must be adjusted in the Creators' App in advance

• Adds support for the Network Streaming function
Notes: Settings must be adjusted in the Creators' App in advance

• Adds support for the Monitor & Control app [Ver 2.1.0 or later]

• Adds a function that automatically creates still images with Shot Marks from
movie frames after recordings
Note: You can add a Shot Mark while shooting or playing a movie and use it as a
mark for selecting, transferring, or editing the movie

• Increases the maximum number of images that can be recorded in one folder to
9,999

• Displays the Wi-Fi signal strength when the Wi-Fi function is On

• Allows the use of Focus Magnifier and Auto Magnifier in MF while using the
Bright Monitoring feature

• Allows notifications to be displayed when the latest software is available for
your camera

• Adds support for the Custom Grid Line feature
Note: The Custom Grid Line feature is available as a paid license. Availability
depends on country and region.

• Fixes an issue where Auto Review is not displayed on the camera during HDMI
output

• Improves the functionality and operational stability of the camera



The new firmware (Ver 3.00) gives the Sony A7R V a host of connectivity boosts
