I use their IEM app to dump a few photos at a time directly to my phone but it’s very slow and limited. I’d love for it to be a proper remote control, with direct upload and other obvious things like that.
- jacquesm 1y agoI mean, really, how hard can it be? And if they don't want to do it just open up the spec. But no, you have to use their crap software on a platform that I'm not using. Oh, and wait until you look at what the nifty USB connector really is. It just looks like USB, it uses a USB connector but there is a whole raft of secondary connections in there! You'd never know until you look at the plug with a microscope, it's that small.
- exasperaited 1y agoYes, it's the "multiport" connector; both USB micro-B and wired shutter release socket. Never quite understood why (considering the A7II, for example, is an Android device!!) they didn't make that port a USB-OTG setup and make the shutter release a proper USB peripheral. But they didn't.
- jacquesm 1y agoYep. And more annoyingly: the people that sell this stuff don't even realize it, they think it is USB.
- exasperaited 1y agoIt's really not a good app. Not so bad on desktop now though. Cascable is said to be better on iOS for Sony but I think you need the pro version for certain features; then again it can also do wired tethering with USB-C which is IMO more practical.
