Support for Sony's Compressed and Compressed HQ formats

I still can't read files I took on my Sony early January, I have switched to RAW losses since the update in February 4th, but those files are bigger in size to the other 2, does Capture One has any estimate timeframe to support the other formats?

also might be a separate thread, but what is really being a bottle neck for me is the wireless tethering on the desktop and mobile apps, I keep using the A7IV because the A7V doesn't support it yet. Sure wire is fine in a pinch or if I am in a studio environment with minimal camera movement - but the moment I am shooting on location and moving a lot, the cable is so inconvenient - the main reason why I went and bought the subscription of the Capture One was to wireless tether from my camera, but now that I have the new one, I can't even use it and it's been 3-4 months already.

Is there finally a timeline for when support for the two missing RAW formats will be available?

I’m starting to get nervous and fear that I’ll have to purchase a new license just to get support for these two formats.
If that’s the case, I think it would be outrageous.

After all, we’re not talking about open-source software written by developers in their spare time, but rather software developed by professionals for professionals.

I bought the license this week and am very upset that Adobe is faster than C1. I hope that will finally be improved quickly and a free update for the missing formats will be available . I hope that I don’t need to buy a new license for that!!!!

Hurry up C1-Team ... seems that Adobe soon will support all RAW-formats of the A7V:

Has sony come up with completely new compressed raw file format for this camera?

Or is compressed raw support not in place for SONY alpha1 mark2?

Any update on this? I have 5 weddings shot in compressed hq.
Ready to buy a licencse if capture one is the first to support it. currently lightroom doesn't support it either.

All formats? Does that mean: all types of ARW and ARQ and AXR?

Hello,

do you have more specifications now ?

do you have more visibility on timeline... ?

Thank you.

Best regards

Denis

Dear Product Manager,

I have two questions below.

(1)
It has been announced in a way that suggests there was a delay in obtaining detailed information from Sony regarding the new RAW format.
Did you attempt to contact Sony immediately before or after the product release announcement(2025/12/2)?
Also, did you overlook any communication from Sony? (This is a particularly important point to confirm.)

(2)

It seems you were aware at a fairly early stage that support for the lossless format would come first in version 16.7.3.

Could you explain why this was not announced until the end of January? (Had I known, I would have switched to shooting in lossless RAW at an earlier stage.)


Overall, I feel that the handling of this file format lacks respect and responsibility toward users and Sony, though I hope I'm mistaken.
Please respond to each of the above points.

Dear C1 Product Manager,

that's not good news :-(

I purchased a new perpetual license for Capture One in December, trusting that a company that offers software for professional photographers should be able to provide support for a new camera within a few weeks.

Based on your explanations, I understand that it is currently not possible to provide an exact timeline for support of the two missing RAW file formats.

However, I hope you can also understand that, as a long-time user, I am anything but happy with how the communication has gone on your part.

I am even less happy that I may have to pay another € 369 (if prices are not increased again by then) if your team does not manage to implement this support by May (within 6 months (!) of the camera's release).

Perhaps a first step toward improving the relationship between C1 and us, its loyal users, would be to offer a free update for C1 version 16.7 that includes support for all RAW file formats of the A7V, regardless of whether a new major version 16.8 is released by then (I know this does not correspond to your general release policy, but I think and hope that it is/was a one-time thing that support for a new camera should take so long).

Best regards ...

when you’ll say, the update with support for A7V will come on 4th February. By when exactly can we expect the update. Around what time of the day. And in which country time?

i provide already all type of raw files is this not useable?
