Digital camera notes: Sony MHS-CM5

Sony MHS-CM5 is a mobile HD camera.

Short specs:
video [MP4] resolution:
up to 1080p30 / 720p60 (1920x1080@30 fps, 1280x720@60 fps, 1280x720@30 fps etc.);
photo [JPG]:
up to 5 MP (max. 2592x1944).

Firmware notes.
  • Latest firmware version (known to me): "1.21".
  • How to check it: turn on the camera (open the LCD screen), and then quickly press and hold the "MENU" button; you'll see the FW version in the bottom right corner of the screen.
  • Firmare update file is usually named "SDV5591S.bin".
  • Quick firmware analysis suggests this Sony camera contains some hardware by Ambarella, which makes it somewhat related to GoPro.

Misc. notes. Sony PMB (Picture Motion Browser) software is abandoned. You can now use that partition of the camera's internal flash memory to store any other useful data ;)
