Hi,

I just got the new 61 Mpx Sony A7R IVa, ILCE-7RM4A which is the successor of the ILCE-7RM4.

Only changes are on the ports and the LCD. No change on the sensor-side.

Obviously the RAW (ARW files) are not supported by common software/OS, despite being the same as the produce by the predecessor.
I have verified this by overriding the EXIF tag, replacing the new modelId (387) to ILCE-7RM4 (375).

Any chance to have this new model ID supported in exiftool?

Thanks!

PS: I'm new in this forum, sorry if this is posted in the wrong section.

Thanks.  I'll add this.  Can you post a sample so I can test it out?

There also appears to be an ILCE-7RM4B.  Do you know anything about this?

The "B" is probably just for the colour "Black" in the productcode, e.g. from Sony Europe/Germany:
ILCE-7RM4       ILCE7RM4B.CEC
ILCE-7RM4A      ILCE7RM4AB.CEC
ILCE-7C Silver  ILCE7CS.CEC
ILCE-7C Black   ILCE7CB.CEC
