Hello,

I'm currently trying to control a Sony A7s III. In general I know, that Sony doesn't like others to control their cameras, but I had the basics working before at least for some older cameras (set settings and capture&download image).

However, despite the fact that the A7s III is listed as supported and I tried gphoto2 on both Archlinux with libghoto2 2.5.30 as well as macOS with the same version of libgphoto2, I only get a few options listed as configs and can't capture anything.

Autodetect only lists it as a generic PTP camera. All the general information is attached. Any clue why it might not be working? Tried in USB MTP mode with "USB-LUN-Einstlg." (whatever that means) set to multi or "Einzeln". Seems to make no difference.

Kind regards,
Ingmar
