If you have a Sony Alpha or RX, HX or even QX (remember them?) series camera that was introduced after 2012, there&#8217;s a good chance it will be supported. Exactly what functionality you will have can vary greatly from camera to camera so it\u2019s worth visiting <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sony.co.uk\/electronics\/support\/cameras-camcorders\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sony&#8217;s support pages<\/a> from where you can find out what your camera can do.<\/p>\n<p>Although <strong>Sony Imaging Edge Mobile<\/strong> was only released last year, it is actually a rebranded version of the PlayMemories Mobile app that was previously used to connect your phone to a Sony camera. The idea behind the rebranding is that it brings the software in line with Sony\u2019s Imaging Edge desktop computer software.<\/p>\n<h2>How to connect your phone to a Sony camera: different types of connection<\/h2>\n<p>There are three ways to connect your phone to a Sony camera, and again, which you use will depend on your camera and smart device. Near Field Connectivity (<strong>NFC<\/strong>) is probably the fastest and smoothest method of making that initial connection, as this simply involves selecting the NFC option and touching the NFC points on the camera and your phone together to set up the Wi-Fi connection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>QR codes<\/strong> provide the next method, which is equally as simple and the preferred option for iOS users. The app allows you to photograph a QR code on the camera which provides the information for the smartphone to create a Wi-Fi connection. Finally you can connect, the \u2018old-fashioned\u2019 way by selecting the camera in your phone\u2019s Wi-Fi connection screen and use the password shown on the camera. A further option is to pair your camera and smartphone via Bluetooth to allow for location, time and date information to be added to the metadata of each image.<\/p>\n<p>A few years ago, with the launch of the third generation of A7 cameras, Sony upgraded the operating system on its cameras, creating a new menu system. Although the new operating system is a big improvement, one thing that was lost was the ability to be able to download and use PlayMemories mobile apps. The apps are still available for download and if you have a compatible camera it is worth having a browse as there are some useful apps, although you do have to pay for some. You can find the full selection by visiting <a href=\"http:\/\/www.playmemoriescameraapps.com\/portal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.playmemoriescameraapps.com\/portal<\/a>.<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_133641&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 650px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-133641\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-remote-shooting.jpg\" alt=\"How to connect your phone to a Sony camera - Sony Imaging mobile app remote shooting\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-remote-shooting.jpg 630w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-remote-shooting.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-remote-shooting.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-remote-shooting.jpg?resize=562,375 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Remote shooting allows you to fire the shutter and adjust key exposure settings from your handheld device<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<h2>Live view and remote shooting from your phone<\/h2>\n<p>Now that you have been able to\u00a0connect your phone to a Sony camera, you can shoot remotely. Like any app, the responsiveness of the live view display depends on the connection strength. Overall I found that there was little lag time between the onscreen camera display and the smartphone display, though like any such connection, there is the odd second where it stalls from time to time.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that the features available when remote shooting will vary depending on the camera (and possibly firmware) that you are using. On cameras with a physical mode dial you cannot change the exposure mode ie. switch from aperture priority to shutter priority. With the Sony A7 III, for example, if you are in aperture priority mode you can change the aperture, exposure compensation and ISO sensitivity. If the mode dial is set to Manual you will have full exposure control at your disposal.<\/p>\n<p>Other settings that can be changed include the white balance, self timer, continuous shooting settings and the flash control settings. Sadly this is about it for the A7 III and other recent Sony cameras. It\u2019s not possible to change the metering mode or any of the image styles such as Creative Styles, Picture Profiles or Dynamic Range Optimisation styles.<\/p>\n<h2>Autofocus<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019ll also notice one other major omission \u2013 the autofocus settings. With the Sony A7 III and the other more recent Sony cameras, there is no option to change any of the autofocus settings, but perhaps most disappointing is that there is no way to change the AF point, or use touch AF. Given that this is most likely one of the key features of a remote control app, it does seem to be a huge oversight from Sony to not feature this.<\/p>\n<p>Pressing the shutter button on the live view remote screen acts in exactly the same way as the camera\u2019s physical camera shutter, so keep this in mind when remote shooting and set up the AF accordingly.<\/p>\n<h2>Video<\/h2>\n<p>With the camera switched to its video setting Imaging Edge Mobile allows for the exposure mode to be changed with the choice of manual, aperture or shutter priority, and the exposure settings changed accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>As before the white balance can be set, but the Picture Profiles cannot, so that will need to be set beforehand. Recordings can be started and stopped using the app, and it is possible to transfer video, including 4K footage, from the camera to the smartphone, although transfer speed and playback is very dependent on the smartphone or tablet being used.<\/p>\n<h2>Image transfer<\/h2>\n<p>Like the vast majority of cameras and apps, Imaging Edge Mobile only allows for the transfer of JPEG, and not raw, images. The JPEGs can be transferred in three sizes, VGA (640&#215;480 pixels), 2-million-pixel, or full resolution. When you are shooting remotely a 2-million-pixel preview image is saved to your smartphone after the image has been taken.<\/p>\n<p>Images can be transferred individually or in batches, and there is the option to select them either on the camera or on the smartphone screen. The Fn button makes it easy to call up the image transfer screen when in the Playback mode, which saves having to delve deep into the camera\u2019s main menu.<\/p>\n<p>With regards to sizes, I would prefer another resolution in-between 2 million pixels and full resolution. On cameras such as the A7R IV a 2-million-pixel or 61-million-pixel image is quite an extreme jump.<\/p>\n<p>Using an iPhone XS and A7 III, it took less than three seconds to transfer a 2-million- pixel JPEG image, and around 17 seconds to transfer a full 24-million-pixel JPEG. Obviously these times will vary depending on your camera, phone, Wi-Fi connection and also the detail in the image, both in terms of resolution and file size due to JPEG compression.<\/p>\n<p>The very latest Sony cameras can also transfer images in the background of the app, even when the camera is switched off. To take advantage of this feature you must have a Sony A9 (firmware 4.00 or higher is needed), A9 II, A7R IV, RX100 VI or RX100 VII.<\/p>\n<h2>Location data<\/h2>\n<p>By using a low-energy Bluetooth connection, the more recent Sony cameras can add location data to images. The first step is to pair the camera and phone via Bluetooth. This is done by selecting Network2&gt;Bluetooth Function and switching to On. Then go to Network2&gt;Bluetooth Function&gt;Pairing and then to Location Information Linkage in the Imaging Edge Mobile app and follow the simple onscreen instructions.<\/p>\n<p>You should only need to set up and pair your smartphone and camera once. From this point, as long as Bluetooth remains set to \u2018On\u2019 on your camera, the camera and smartphone should pair automatically. Any images that you now shoot will take the location, date and time from your smartphone and add it to the metadata of the images that you shoot. It\u2019s clever and most importantly, it works!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Sony Imaging Edge Mobile: Standout feature<\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-133642 aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-transfer-and-tagging.jpg\" alt=\"How to connect your phone to a Sony camera - Sony Imaging mobile app transfer and tagging\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-transfer-and-tagging.jpg 630w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-transfer-and-tagging.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-transfer-and-tagging.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/01\/Sony-Imaging-mobile-app-transfer-and-tagging.jpg?resize=562,375 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/>\n<h3>Transfer and Tag<\/h3>\n<p>Alongside the Imaging Edge Mobile app is a companion application called Transfer and Tag.
