More than I can review. ;)
I upgraded R404M firmware on my G90 3S and it has new video resolutions:
2560x1080
2304*1296
1980*1080p @ 60fps
1980*1080p
1980*1080p HDR

Anyone here tried higher than 1080p resolution on 3S?
Does it perform fine?

Sample video property here:

I think @Sabe tried it first as did I and it works on the extra resolutions but will randomly lock up - usually pretty quickly.

If you only have the A7LA30 version of the camera it's a nice way to demo what you could have if you upgrade to a higher spec version of the camera :)

Same with the Mini 0806 firmware - you can load it onto an 0805 but it will randomly lock up again.
 
I have both 3S and 7S.
I was trying different FW to see if there is EV setting on some versions but haven't found it so far.
I'll downgrade to 3S FW later on.
 
Didn't work for long @ 2560*1080p.
It froze after three video clips so total 9 minutes and the LCD screen displayed a still image instead of the real time video.
Oh well, back to the 3S firmware.
