Great video! To confirm for your viewers, the A7 although it has PC remote doesn’t work with the monitor+ app. However, I can confirm that the A7RII and A7SII works with the app! I used an iPhone as the monitor. Hopefully, this helps whoever needs this information.

Neither ways, wireless is not enough good, too laggy to be honest, I have a A7C, and wired with phone is way much better.

I have a very similar set up with Sony A6600 using a micro USB to USB A cable (original Sony cable) into an OTG adaptor into USB-c on my phone (Samsung A14 5g). Despite using all the recommended USB settings on the camera, the app seems to recognise the camera but will not connect, coming up with the same error message of "not being able to connect either because PC Remote is not turned on or the device is not supported". I have tried starting with the camera in photo mode (rather than video), doing a camera hard re-set, re-intalling the app, etc, but nothing seems to work. Any further suggestions?

HELP. I did everything the same as you. But when connecting, the phone screen only shows "no signal" and the remaining parameters such as ISO, shutter speed,... can still be controlled, but only the screen is no signal. Thank you <3

Type c to lighting no connect so you have to use usb A to micro usb

Tried... and worked💯 saved me a couple 100$

[@skepsys]

did they fix the stabilization issue? when filming using the app, u lose image stabilization (definitely from the lens (but i think also from the camera), it just gets disabled - tried different cables).

Does Monitor+ show exposure stops ? So I can check from a distance that the exposure is set correctly ?

Hello, I have Sony 6300 and I connected the camera with the same adapter with my iPad, but I can get video signal. I can change ISO, etc, but no image. Can you help me please?

At the beggining didn't work with my A7s mk2 every control was there but "no signal" sign too, so, what i did was to move the camera dial to photo mode and i got the signal, then go back to movie mode and signal was there so it is working now. I'm talking about an iphone 13 pro max and a aliexpress cable.

Im using a sony a7ii with a galaxy s21 ultra and the app connects to the camera (shows battery, etc) but there is no video. please help

[@josefbures4583]

Hi, it starts lagging a lot when I actually start recording, almost unusable. It's responsive while not recording. Does it happen to you too? I have an A6400. Thanks for the video anyway.

Can i use this for my a7ii?

[@alebelmonte9312]

Can you choose video mode and record from your cell phone?

[@iKINDREAD]

Does it not work for USB to the USB connection to the camera?

[@waccojacco4077]

If I don’t have the original Sony cable what can I do? I have followed every step, and got an adaptor from mini HDMI to lightning cable (not the Apple one) and it wouldn’t work. I have the A6400
