Yep same here, doesn't appear to be an isolated issue either, pages on Reddit are also saying the same thing. I hope Sony is working on a solution. I don't have this problem with my A7III. Can't be a hardware issue.

Furthermore when I spoke to a Sony support rep, they said its because my unit was using hacked firmware, which is ridiculous as my FX3 came sealed.

I've just spoken to Sony Support UK and they said its because its an Asian unit, he confirmed from the 4.0 update it will remove this selector because in the Asian market this is the format they use. When I questioned what if an Asian creator wanted to create content for the PAL regions, he simply said that this is something they cannot fix from the support team. So in other words, Sony will not allow Asian creators to create content for PAL regions with the FX3, seems really unfair considering that its the same camera but you're limited to what you can do based on where you live. Pretty poor for a big company like Sony to do this to their users.

By "Asian Market", Sony mean JAPAN. Im based in Singapore & we shoot entirely in PAL. With a lot of international projects, ALL IN PAL. Sony wont admit they screwed up the V4 for FX3 effectively putting the camera of action. As a result we'v asked the broadcaster for permission to use the a7 iii as our 2nd unit cameras, as our FX3 cameras are now unusable! The broadcaster is not happy about it & it's put production in a difficult position. The FX3 was used it tight camera locations in & on vehicles for this project. ***** are Sony thinking?!
