Importing root certification to the camera (Import Root Certificate)

Imports a root certificate needed to verify a server from a memory card.

The root certificate is used when executing encrypted communication for connecting to the cloud, etc.

The root certificate is saved to the camera and can be updated.

This function can be used when the camera’s system software (firmware) is Ver.2.00 or later.

  1. Save a root certificate to a memory card.
    • Save the certificate to the root directory of the memory card with the file name “sonycert.”
  2. Insert the memory card to which the root certificate has been saved into the camera.
  3. MENU → (Network) → [Network Option] → [Import Root Certificate] → Select [Cloud Connection], and then select [OK].
    • The root certificate saved to the memory card is read by the camera, and then the root certificate on the camera is updated.

Menu item details

Cloud Connection *:
Reads a root certificate to verify the server for the cloud connection or other functions.
  • Sony will provide “sonycert” used for [Cloud Connection] as needed. The certificate used in this function is encrypted, so normal PEM-format certificates cannot be read.

* The cloud connection may only be available in certain countries and regions.

Note

  • Do not remove the memory card from the camera during read operations.
  • When the network settings are reset, the root certificate on the camera is reset as well.
  • The maximum size of a root certificate that can be loaded is 1 MB per certificate.
