ccd_ptp: implement SONY new API #506

Closed tail-feather closed 8 months ago

tail-feather commented 8 months ago

I found new API version 300.

This API allows direct manipulation of enumerated values, similar to Nikon and Canon cameras! Yay!

I tested with:

polakovic commented 8 months ago

Do you suppose it is backward compatible with older cameras? I still have 7RM2 somewhere, but I need to find some battery :)

polakovic commented 8 months ago

Oh yes, I see, new API for 7RM4 and later.

tail-feather commented 8 months ago

The original implementation says compatible with these models. I had the opportunity to verify those cameras to our new product, so I tested with that.

But it may be possible that older models are supported. I'll soon borrow one from a colleague who owns a SONY camera to try it out.

If you can test it, please edit here and give it a try.

I have tested changing the border to 0x0c33 for ILCE-7RM3 and it does not appear to work. I observed the following output from indigo_server after trying to connect the camera in Ain Imager:

This list makes sense as its the same list that is supported by Sony's official CameraRemote SDK. As such, I suspect cameras older than the A7R IV won't work with the new API.

polakovic commented 6 months ago

It looks, that new API is used and doesn't work with A64000 cameras, but I don't have product ID yet :(

polakovic commented 6 months ago

ICLE-6400 should be 0x0caa. The oldest camera with new API is probably ILCE-7RM4.
