You absolutely cannot select any other language on Japanese domestic SONY models. The professional line up of camcorders come with an English selection in the menu, but not the consumer models. Suggestions by well intentioned but ill-informed people to follow the menu in the English user guide, will not get you anywhere. The Japanese models do not include this item in the menu. Plain and simple. Visitors to Japan should be careful when purchasing items here as they more often than not only include Japanese manuals. SONY and Panasonic also only include English menus in their cameras. Canon and Nikon do have an English selection, but this should be confirmed at the point of purchase not after returning to your country!! Furthermore, warranties are usually only valid for Japan.
I have compared its instruction manual in English and Japanese versions and found that the language setting part is absent in Japanese version. So that the japanese version will support only japanese.
I have asked the seller in Bic Camera shop (in Japan) and he tried to change the language in the menu, but unfortunately he could't find and change it.
HI there if you don't know Japanese language then you no able to change that in English. For this you need to use some tricks. If you have Manual then open the manual and follow the steps for going in location for setting. if you manual is in Japaneses language then download manual from Net then try. Thanks.
I
bought a camera in Japan (Sony Cybershot DSC-WX1) and now it seems that i
can't change the language from japanese to english. If i select (can't
read it but with the help of the english digital guide i think i have
the right menu)change language, there seems to be only one language
available. -japanese- How do I solve this?
Press the MENU button to bring up the main menu. Use cursor-down to select Settings (toolbox icon) and press * in the center of the cursor pad. Use cursor-up/down to select Main Settings (wrench and hammer icon), press cursor-right, and then *. Select the second item on this menu.
Hello analyn There may be a simple fix to this problem. Find a friend that has a cybershot of the same model as your own. In their camera, open the menu and navigate to the language setting. While you do this count how many times you press the button. Example: Menu -camera settings 1 -program 2 -personal settings 3 press ok
personal settings -storage type 1 -date and time 2 -language 3 press ok
language -spanish 1 -english 2 press ok -japanese
Although the language is different, the number of spaces should be the same, so even though you can't read it to change the language, you should be able to count it out. Or if you are lucky you may have a Japanese friend who can read it.
Researched this extensively. you cannot change the camera to english. sony camera's bought in japan (or from the internet from japanese suppliers are not multi language. they supply a japanese version and an international version. the japanese version is cheaper (nationalistic thing). there is no firmware either to upgrade it. best thing to do is download the manual and become familiar with it.
