I'm on Sonoma 14.2

Worked fine on the A1 / 70-200 GMII. Did not work on A7RV as I tried that first.

At first blush it doesn't seem to have degraded anything. Not having an A9III - no idea how that is going to play out.

I just got a Mac Studio.. so my first Silicon Mac.

I had to reboot and change my security settings to allow kernel extensions... that was a bit annoying.

Was able to update the 24-70 GMII.. no prob once I dealt with that.

I absolutely hated the update procedure on the M1 Mini. It was so annoying that I missed the whole 1.31 debacle by just not updating the A1 from 1.3

I think Sony has improved the process. Now running an M2 Max MBP and after setting permissions to allow the Sony updater to run it's gone well.

I did update the A7RV via the app and that went better than expected but I couldn't figure out how to update lenses on the RV.
