On July 5th, Sony reached out to me (Marcus Meissner).

Dear Marcus Meissner,

Thanks for your efforts to support Sony cameras in gphoto2.

In the last years, Sony has put additional focus on supporting
integrators who control the camera remotely. We launched Camera remote
SDK<https://support.d-imaging.sony.co.jp/app/sdk/en/index.html>, and
improved it step by step as well as launched additional products or
added features in existing cameras for improved remote control.

In addition, we recently decided to officially support low level control
of our cameras using USB-PTP protocol, and to release the documentation
of Sony PTP commands publicly without Non Disclosure Agreement to allow
the open source community to use it easily. Please apply on Camera remote
Command<https://support.d-imaging.sony.co.jp/app/cameraremotecommand/en/index.html>
if not already done.

[also internal contact email offered for questions, and potential loans]
