Monitor & Control

If the app had options for NDI output it would be the absolute killer monitor App. But it’s possible to use the NDI screen capture together with the app. I should be possible to have a totally clean display option. It’s only the “lock” button left to a totally clean display. If we also had some Remote output like RTMP etc and YouTube, Tik Tok it would be great.

Technically, the app works. However, the product team has made interface design choices that make the app cumbersome to operate. Changing basic settings such as shutter speed, ISO, etc takes two steps too many. Modifying camera settings is straightforward, but wastes valuable screen space. The controls for altering the aperture are oddly imprecise. A full interface redesign would be beneficial.

The app is very convenient and love it for when I don’t want to shoot raw with Atomos Ninja. The features available on it are awesome and even works great for multi cam setups.

Please add the ability to overlay aspect ratios so we can review our footage in the proper format. And custom aspect ratios as well! Just like the cameras. 🙏🏽😌 and is there anyway to improve the resolution being streamed? Update: version 5 improved the resolution to the app. But please add the ability to set aspect ratios!

False color is great! The zebras are great. The ebility to adjust aperture, and other things without touching the camera while it’s on a gimbal is great! I’m wondering if it’s just because I’m using this with a Sony a7S3 that there are so many limitations. I’m watching all the videos on YouTube and everybody has tons of applications but my A7S3 is not coming up with all of the stuff everybody else has. the most detrimental being, I can only monitor with a log profile when I have the camera in slog3. I need to have Slog assist, at least, and the ability to upload Luts would be even better. There’s also no focus peeking. 🤨

Would love to see the ability to import luts for the A7siii!

Auto focus assist needs to be RED, it’s white or grey and who can see it? It’s focus peaking and it needs to be red - please fix.

Just charge us a fee for the ability to remote monitor/control our camera, but this app demands full access to every photo on my phone, my location, etc and is a privacy nightmare. Sony hardware is fantastic, but these scammy data harvesting practices after paying thousands for hardware is offensive and tacky. Sony, please shift your strategy before you lose your customer base.

Worked the first couple times on my fx3 and then never again. Same problem with fx6 but lasted longer. Don’t depend on it.

This app apparently is very stable compared with Monitor+ but seriously no aspect ratios with Monitor & Control? I’m using two anamorphic lenses 1.33x and 1.5x the app has no option to desqueeze? Setting desqueeze through FX30 setting does nothing in the app. Pretty bad. Too bare bones, going back to Monitor+ with a cable instead I guess. Charge subscription or money for the app but do the app right or remove it from the app store.
