Thanks, but that is 1.11E, not 1.11U ... I tried it, didn't work. But 1.20U is doin' fine.

The E = Europe and the U = USA, so I don't see why it can't be installed and work correctly. After all, if Sony A900 owners in the EU downloaded firmware from the USA, it'll still install and work, so your reply to me seems most odd, but I'm you know better than anyone.

Mark you may be thinking of the A2 which uses the same firmware file for all regions, U, J & E work off the same file.

The 7i however only uses the firmware file that is for the designated region. U needs "U"....J needs "J" etc.

Sony A900 was a much later era in that firmware would be compatiable with all regions just like the Dimage A2 and A200.

the Dimage 7i simply won't recognize any firmware version that doesn't have the matching region designation letter at the end.
