WX350 compact camera - Japanese only onscreen.

PatrickSoper — Wed, 01 May 2024 13:59:22 GMT

Bought this Wx350 s'hand on Ebay UK and, having had one before (now given to my wife), I'm very pleased with it .. except that the menus, sub-menus and onscreen information is all in Japanese. This camera came from Tokyo and evidently was intended for the home market.

Google Translate has been very helpful, but in part 4 of the 'Toolbox' there is no provision for changing language, so I assume that my only hope is for a software download from Sony.

Any suggestions, please?

Hi @PatrickSoper,

there is no way to change the language. The seller tricked you by selling you a grey import.

Good morning, Nic -

Many thanks for your reply that I cannot change this WX350's onscreen language from Japanese to English; it's not the response I was hoping for, but it wasn't wholly a surprise. My wife has an English-language WX350 and, with the additional help of Google Translate, I've been able to set the features that I use. And in the meantime I have cancelled my Ebay account.

Regards -

Patrick
