Focus drive in manual focus on Sony RX100 M7
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I use the RX100 to capture images in a stationary application. With Sony software I can change the focus of the RX100 M7. This does not seem to work with gphoto.
Describe the solution you'd like I would like an option/action to drive focus of the RX100. Ideally focus can be set to an absolute value. If not relative movements would work as well.
Describe alternatives you've considered Currently I set focus manually. Unfortunately, I have to repeat this every time the camera is power cycled because it always restores to some default which I cannot change (or did not find it).
Additional context Thanks for this awesome library! Can I provide any help here? Logs/dumps config listings?
can you specify how you tried manual focusing? with what gphoto2 commands / api calls?
there is "manualfocus" option for sony, where you can specify stepping -7 to 7 for relative focusing.
absolute focusing usually is not possible, as the focus monitor does not know the position it is in with the modern non-mechanic drives.

I tried: gphoto2 --set-config=/main/actions/manualfocus=7 but it said that this is unknown config. It also did not show up in --list-all-config. Do I need a specific version for that action?
I currently run gphoto2 from Ubuntu 20.04:
$ gphoto2 --version

Any idea what I should look into?
To follow up on this: It seems "manualfocus" is missing here as well: https://github.com/gphoto/libgphoto2/blob/master/camlibs/ptp2/cameras/sony-rx100m7.txt. Is there some workaround to enable it anyway? Where would I have to patch libgphoto2 to get this working?
I tried:
gphoto2 --set-config=/main/other/d2d1=7
It did not complain but also seemed to have not done anything.
Another thing I noticed (not sure if this is related):
WARNING: gphoto2: (_get_config [config.c:11188]) Type of property 'Manual-Focus' expected: 0x0004 got: 0x0003
WARNING: gphoto2: (_get_config [config.c:11188]) Type of property 'Bulb Mode' expected: 0x0000 got: 0x0004
WARNING: gphoto2: (_get_config [config.c:11188]) Type of property 'Capture Target' expected: 0x0000 got: 0x0004
Ah, yes. Manual Focus hat UINT16 as type, while it is INT16. This likely has hidden it from view.
I adjusted this in current GIT of libgphoto2 now.
Usually the camera reports it to us and it seems to have reported d2d1. It might only work in preview mode.
