Sony A7R IV Firmware for the A7R M4

[Tackrill]

Good evening to all,

Please could someone offer some assistance?

I own an A7R Mk4 which currently only has firmware version 1.00 installed. I'm looking to get to the current 1.2 version but have seen on the site version 1.1 onwards. I've read that I need to install 1.05 first but can't seem to find any links. Could some kind soul help me out & point me in the right direction of what I need to do & whether I can go straight from version 1.00 to version 1.2 or if I have to somehow find the interim updates. It's all so confusing what I'm reading on the web!

Best wishes from a cold & windy Lincolnshire, UK.

To add to the confusion, there are TWO versions of the A7RIV. Look at the label on the bottom of the camera. One says ILCE-7RM4 while the other says ILCE-7RM4A - there are different firmware versions for these!

If you really have the A7IV, the bottom of the camera will say ILCE-7M4.

Thanks Brownie & AlphaWorld,

It's definitely the A7R Mk4 that I have.

Thank you so much for the clarification, I'd got myself confused with all the talk around firmware for the standard resolution Mk4.

Best regards

The label on the bottom of the camera is a handy way to disambiguate "which camera do I have?" without even turning it on
