I got a good laugh out of the "unblur to verify" first image. I dont know what I was expecting to see.

I would be interested in a note on whether Sony / Leica / Olympus “content credentials” do any better with their hardware to ensure a signature is assigned to data straight off the sensor.

My bet is they do considerably worse. Digital cameras are not designed with security in mind. Arbitrary code execution has been achieved on many DSLRs and there's even been open-source firmware projects for some.

Unfortunately they're a little outside of my tinkering budget, but if anyone wants to send me some I'll do my best to pwn them.

I have ordered a faulty Sony A7 IV motherboard, but due to its faulty-ness and the lack of the rest of the camera, I'm not sure how far I'll be able to get with it.
