# PMCA-RE RELOADED

> PMCA-RE RELOADED is a Rust desktop and CLI toolkit for Sony cameras that includes experimental analysis of where menu settings reside in camera settings memory. It also parses firmware files, backup images and usage logs offline, and provides USB access to camera information, apps, firmware updates and settings. Supported operations depend on the camera generation.
