I have connected two different Sony cameras; Sony Alpha A9 and Sony Alpha A6000 and I am trying to get the f-number values that the cameras support. I am not getting any data now and the F-number options are empty.

I only get this when listing the data from :

Label: F-Number Readonly: 0 Type: RANGE Current: 3.5 Bottom: 0 Top: 655.35 Step: 0.01 END

get-config /main/capturesettings/f-number

I am able to set the values but not extract all the possible options.

The camera says the value can be anything from 0 to 655.35 in steps of 0.01. This is obviously absurd but that's not a problem with the Python interface.
