Do you know if it's possible to get the current focal distance, aperture, etc info from the camera? Given we can step the focus and zoom by sending commands, one would presume this information may be available. It does appear to be available in the Sony Wi-Fi protocol.

Hi, I've found, that «Half down -> Fully down -> Half up -> Fully up» works only when shutter speed is fixed. When I set shutter speed to BULB on ILCE-7C (for example, to control timings programmatically), something weird is happening:

1. I send «Half down -> Fully down», shutter is pressed in camera
2. I wait for some time while image is well exposed
3. I send «Half up -> Fully up» supposing it should release the shutter

But the shutter isn't released, the camera doesn't respond at all to «Half up -> Fully up». I was able to release the shutter only with sending «Half down -> Fully down» second time (in manual focus mode one can only send just «Fully down» both times).

What's even stranger is that remote controls work the same way: if you press and hold the button in BULB mode, the shutter will not release after you release the button on RC, but it will release after you press it again. Tested on aodelan rmt-p1bta and JJC RMT-P1BT.

Hey , nice work ,
After Sending Pair request to camera , is there any way to detect if users accepts that pairing request in camera , or canceled that
or in case if we want to check the pairing status with camera . ( i know we can check if camera if in Pairing mode , or enabled from manufacturer data )

Hi! thanks for the code! I havent tested this but I wonder if is possible to pair multiple controllers to the camera? I guess you did this a lot while testing (I want to port this to an esp32)

Is it possible to control the focus in manual focus mode by stepping in or out? I have seen some information on this at https://gregleeds.com/reverse-engineering-sony-camera-bluetooth/. I tried using the Nordic App on Android.

Thanks
