Sony ILCE 7R2 doesn't swich ON after firmware update failed


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

Everything is in the title. I tried to update firmware but it failed during the process.
And after that, my camera doesn't switch on anymore (the battery is 100%, checked with another camera) and there is a red button in the bottom right-hand corner in the back of the camera.
If someone has ever been able to find a solution, i would appreciate your help.
thanks

There are instructions with the firmware update about what to do if the update fails. I think they specify trying taking out the battery, waiting, re-inserting it, and trying to turn it on again - check!

If that fails, take it to a Sony repair place and explain what happened.

    • Why not get an a-mount camera -- with the features you want?  There are lots to choose from.  Most are APS format, but there were four that are full-frame format.  To use a-mount lenses on e-mount cameras you need an adapter that depends on your a-mount lenses and e-mount camera.  They are not cheap, and can have limitations.  You can avoid all that by sticking to a-mount cameras -- which are usually inexpensive.  So are a-mount lenses!   Here's a list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Sony_A-mount_cameras
    • Hi all, first time poster.  I am getting back into photography and have chosen to stick with sony, I have a pretty old Sony A100 alpha on the A mount, I have a couple of lenses that are all AF enabled, a small 28-70 sony kit lens and a telefoto Minolta, so my thought was to get an a6000 body, and use A to E adapter to make use of the glass. Is this advisable? Will I get clear crisp imagines in this manner, I can't imagine these lenses would be classed as "too old" or would they?  I'm trying to keep the initial cost down whilst I get back into things, after this i would be happy to spend a bit more.  Happy for any advice or correct me if my thinking is wrong. Is the A6000 a decent place to begin? I also considered the A77 mk2, which has the A mount. To add, my style of photography is mainly just portraits, family time photography, and some outdoor street stuff from time to time.  Thanks!
