Hello there,

I have the same problem, unfortunately, if you bought it from Japan, there is no feature to change the language! I know this because I checked, I even contacted SONY Japan (in Japanese only) and they suggestd that I should take the camera back to the store it was bought. Unfortunately I cannot do that when I am in the UK! I contacted SONY NZ, Asia and UK to try and get the European firmware so that I can flash my camera, apparently all the cameras are the same in electronics and mechanics, it is only the firmware that is changed, unfortunately Japanese think that their version should only have Japanese language. Sorry to burst your bubble, I am in the same situation and so far, SONY has not helped. This is the First and last SONY product for me, unless they reply with a decent solution.
