Hi Brian, thanks for your info. Is there a way to increase the range to an iPad or iPhone? I use a Camranger with my Nikon and it has a foot range. Not sure if this is posted, but with the latest version you can double tap the screen and it will focus at that point. Very handy feature of the app. I am using 3. The only control available is the shutter, the arc does not appear on the screen. I just shut the auto HDR and tried it… it took over 20 secs. I cannot provide support for phone issues.
I only own an iPhone and have neither the time nor inclination to test any other models. Can you use this app also just to let somebody view what you are filming in video mode? As an wireless extra monitor? Is there any solution to that issue? It is very important for me. Make certain both your camera firmware and camera apps are updated to the latest version.
Maybe this is the problem. Because I tested Fuji xT and it works. It works perfect! Thank you very much, Brian! Brian, Thank you for your thoroughness in writing this article. I use the a for real estate photography. My question is: Do you know of a way to delete images while being tethered to the iPad mini? Also, do you know if the app functions normally with the camera screen turned off?
Trying to save a little battery life while working. Thanks in advance for your time. Thank you so much for this post. I just received my RX V and this helped me to set up the remote trigger feature. GREAT information here. EASY to understand. Thanks much for this information. Saved me hours of fumbling around in the dark trying to figure this out. Much appreciated! Not sure.
That works on some cameras. Be certain that both the app is the latest version and camera is running the newest firmware. Are you or is anyone else aware of a workaround for Windows Phones or Surface Pro tablets for remotes without tethering? Any other ideas for remote triggering for Sony A7II? Not sure if this was answered and I missed it but I just want to preview my images like the live view on back of my camera to better see what they look like on larger screen since the camera LCD is so small.
Is this possible and what all would be needed to do this? Prefer Android tablet over Mac. Could it be done with a cable or remote? Do you know if there if a preview time you can set i. Thanks so much! Very interesting and useful. Why my user interface is completely different with the rest of people?
I got ugly symbols not those circle ones that you can adjust. And another question is zebra supported by this app? Is it normal? Zebra is not displayed on smart phones or tablets. Thank you Thank you Thank you! I got bogged down on the net, bogged down in the camera. Finally, I Goggled the project, got your site and put it into action within 5 minutes — that included loading times for the app!
Yup, the you must upgrade from the Embedded version to the full version: Smart Remote Control in order to get all functions. Hello, I have mostly used usb connection to operate sonya7s for various deep sky astro applications and downloaded raw photos to my pc. I have now started to install wireless apps as you describe.
Bulb mode is critical of course but also to transmit wirelessly the raw photos to destination on computer not just jpg. I am trying to connect smartphone to computer to get photos to computer. Can you comment because only if i can get the raw data to pc easily like i would consider using the wireless apps.
One of my main reasons for potentially abandoning my wired usb transfer is the usb wire distance of about 25 ft and occasional image transfer losses. I think this will be less of a problem if i manage to make it work wireless approach. Wired tethering is best for your needs. I could literally kill Sony right now.
A good sensor only gets you so far. The app on the phone shows f-stop, ISO, speed, white balance etc… But it does not show file format or give options to change it. You can only change it by the app menu in the camera. This big flaw by Sony. At the very least, the app should show the file format. Maybe I have an old version. The phone app also does not state file format on my version.
Thank goodness I noticed. All that appears are the apps. Where is it? Is this possible when Remote Control is active?
Hi Brian, Thanks for the helpful instructions. I got it to work. It seems like there is a slight delay when pressing the shutter button on the app. I do not remember such a delay with the vello remote control. Is it my imagination or iis there a lag with the app? I used the remote tool to connect the camera and use my samsung a7 phone to take picture.
When you shoot RAW, it uses the embedded 2K preview image. Is it possible to reply on remote control shooting connected to the camera in lieu of using a sony remote for night photography such as the Milky Way on the Sony a7 III? Sorry, I meant to say use a smartphone as a remote control via PlayMemories app instead of a wired remote. I tried that last night and it worked with no issue even in autofocus. Just got an A and downloaded this app to my iphone and camera. Am I correct that I need to be in wifi or use my hotspot to control the camera with my phone?
Sorry for the newbie question. You simply form a WiFi connection between the camera and your smartphone or tablet. Hello thanks for all your insight. Hello Brian, I have three a7R III that I would like to trigger remotely at the same time, preferably by wire but wireless would be fine too , do you think this is feasible?
Thanks, Carlos. Either type of PocketWizard will work fine. Hi Brian, i would like to try photos at blue hour. Would you be able to explain the advantages between the app, remote release via cable and the 2 sec function. Any of them will work fine, but you may wish to select the 5 second delay on the self-timer to allow the camera a bit more time to stabilize after pressing the shutter. Bulb does not work in Continuous.

This control is disabled when shooting in Manual mode. If you are using the old Sony NEX, you will find that the remote control function is isolated from the drive mode it is located together with other shooting mode in the older NEX series and located in the menu.
It is a good news because you finally can use the wireless remote control to trigger the continuous bracket shoot and other shooting modes. Create An Account. Studio Lighting. Lens Filter. Photography Tips. Recent Articles. February 03, All you have to do is point and click!
