Sony A6300 using tablet or smartphone as an external video monitor

You can use you smartphone or tablet as an external video monitor for your A6300

[@NickC9545]

Sometimes KZbin provides the exact solution to my problem. This was one of those times. Thank you so much for making this fantastic video.

[@wil46nl]

This works great on my A6300. Now I can see a lot better then with the small screen. For getting the sound in my headset to hear what is really happening, I use a very small hdmi2vga converter from what I only use the audio output. That converteer is plugged into the mini hdmi port of the A6300. The converteer can be bought everywhere on internet for only a few bucks.

[@jordan.newsom]

So incredible helpful! This is so simple but I didn't know it was an option! BTW this also works on the a6500 if anyone was wondering.

[@ylwsnoproduction5897]

This only works for a6300 and 6500 not a6000 and below. Even with the firmware update. Thanks for the video though I’m looking forward to getting an a6500

[@CyborgStudioMX]

is there any app to use the picture profiles as slog 3?

[@azizulzulzaha]

yeah cannot shoot slog. i tried.

[@GiegX]

Nice! Very good accent, clear to understand voice like American girl from Carolina state :) no Arnold style :) thx

[@mossite]

Hahahaha, I❤️no Arnold style! But he also has a real bad accent, when he speaks German.

[@GiegX]

@@mossite Wow didnt know that, but be cant emagine Terminators without his accent. Otherwise, have a lot fun with your chanel. I like people doing smart helping things, not only shitty stupiddy and tiktoking :D Regards

[@mutoler]

what is the tripod head you are using?

[@DigitalPulse]

Thank you vey much for this! This definitely convinced me to go for the A6300 😀

[@khalilalkarrsifi419]

Is there no lag? I get lag on my Sony action cam when connecting like this, how have you sorted that. ?

[@jmluab1913]

can you TRANSFER 'VIDEO FILES' from a sony mirrorless camera(eg. a6000 , a6300 ,a6xxx) to an ANDROID PHONE 'WIRELESSLY' ?

[@thepug2544]

Thank you

[@TheOther9519]

good video, especially that it shows how it's recording!

[@mossite]

thx

[@GantzGeo]

Thank you sooooo much. I'm going to be making a short film in the summer, this has really helped.

[@maricruz3269]

What tripod holder is this. I need one so I can connect both camera and smartfone or screen ?

[@MasonSanchez.]

Nice video. What phone is that? I've seen Huawei before.

[@ModulatorUK]

It works on A6000 but I dont know it is a bit slow. I'm wondering if it is possible to connect to camera to the iphone with an micro HDMI to Lightning.

[@ryanvivion854]

What firmware version and what tablet?My iPad doesn’t have this slider feature like yours.

[@jessewilliams6698]

Is there a way to set up a wired connection between the A6300/iPhone?? The lag and quality of the wifi connection are really disappointing!

[@cottojn]

Can I do this with my a6600 to my iPad for photography use? I would like to do a photo shot at my home studio and view the photos as I take them and also show the model. Is this possible are there any down sides to using it like this?

[@Teacher2Polis2XtraRice]

Thanks for this vid. Very helpful

[@samslegends]

Thats okay for taking selfies or similar. But for filming its not usefull. Its lagging and all settings need to be done in the app. No fps settings, only shutter speed

[@rupestrevideo]

Hi, great video, but I cannot find a way to see the live feed in full screen as you do. I see an split window with some controls in the right pane and a small live view in the left... how you did it?

[@user-ee3ky4vh3q]

if your remote control is different from what is shown in this video , then you have an outdated version. take a look at the official website of this program. it is written in detail how to upgrade to ver. 4.31

[@pizarl]

Other option to shoot with slog?

[@wil46nl]

Thank you very much Mossite. Great instruction. Only my screen looks a little different. I cannot adjust things with this sliding circle bow you have on the right cause I don't have that. The functions are in separate windows now. And my display window is much smaller then you have. I have downloaded the latest on my brand-new A6300 today (26-02-2019) and on my Huawei phone. But the result is the same anyway so great stuff. If anyone knows about different versions?

[@nobody_there_]

Well could be helpfull if you give the NAME of this APP, .... The sony one, does NOT show the same result...

[@noah.3881]

Dein Englisch ist sehr gut😉 gutes Video hat mir geholfen

[@mattyork5143]

Whats the name of the piece on tripod that have the camera and the tablet ?

[@MrMosabSOmar]

my a6000 is not supported. some say it works for them if so .. can you show us how ?

[@ericksanjaya4298]

well my a6000 supports this just well

[@Alexandru126]

You have to have the latest firmware update... I think is 3.20...

[@mutoler]

i have 3.20 firmware but the app does not work in video shooting mode. I couldn't get over it.

[@talalmohammed7058]

I have a7r but i can't record videos .there is no recording video icon ?!!!

[@kingmenace423]

Erick Sanjaya I call bs... It'll only work for photos not for videos

[@NATEXWEBMEDIA]

Does the smartphone headphones work. Can I hear the incoming sound from my smartphone?

[@ptavera]

i am guessing with the wifi connection on that little battery will drain the power out faster than saying let the cat out of the bag.

[@mossite]

Yes, it will, but just ad a powerpack :)

[@SCIENTFICPULSE]

yes ....i've seen people who connect both camera and the tablet/phone to a power supply

[@Art_thr0b]

so if your shooting a video outside this will not be use full at all? can you plug a micro HDMI to the phone/tablet?

[@worthapost]

Hi, does it mirror on tablet screen while recording 4k also?? Somebody said it cannot mirror screen while recording 4k

[@jjhyphy]

What tablet mount and accessories so you use

[@iyancarmona1697]

What about in a6000

[@jessietorres2818]

What accessories or adapters did you use? And where did you buy them?

[@Niccosport]

Is it possible to control a6300 aperture and speed for photography using the phone?

[@bodeprime]

The modes and settings aren't showing on my screen. I need help with that pls.

[@Y4LMorrisYoung]

canon you use a usb and hook it up?

[@thathumburgerismineasshole5739]

I'm on a mission to figure it out right now - hate the lag and battery drain

Hello, I can only stream on the tablet or it is mandatory to stream on your tablet and camera

[@travelfoodielove]

Does this only take pics though

[@thepug2544]

Does that also work for 4K recording?

[@85Dragonball]

awesome! thank you very much!

does running the app drain the battery more than not using the external monitor and app?

[@FroggyVids]

Yes it does

[@jaeartell3512]

what is this slider u use

[@alexparadis3438]

thank you!

[@mirko2481]

is there any lag between the camera and the screen?

[@mossite]

Yes, there was a lack. To be honest, I haven't used it for quite a while, so I don't know how it works right now.

[@RupKBK]

Hi Mossite, Can we record video using this app?

[@lightspeed72]

Can you tap to focus on the tablet? Will it let you do that? Thanks for the good idea!

[@mossite]

+lightspeed72 yes you can.

[@lightspeed72]

Wonderful, thx!!

[@DavidBrazda1]

actually you can not, it works only for photo, not in video mode

[@KartikJayaraman79]

[@MIMCKMedia]

funktioniert die App auch für Apple Ipad?

[@mossite]

Ich denke schon. Ich habe keine IOS Produkte, aber bin mir sicher, dass Sony die App auch für Apple raus gebracht hat.

[@EUguitarRULE]

Has never work for me and my A6300

[@rmp5s]

wtf...your menus look totally different than mine and your app has a ton more features than mine...what version firmware/app are you running? All I can do with the app in video mode is start recording, stop recording and see a live view. It's useless.

[@FroggyVids]

Same for me on a Galaxy S7.

[@AczeOne]

It is not possible to use s-log and this application is very cluttered with functionality.

[@VideoPine]

it limits the camera too mutch, no pro settings available in the camera when using the smart remote app. totally defeats the purpose of remote starting your nice camera.

[@mikeh.4503]

It's kind of useless as it won't let you record in log mode (=PP 7) :(

[@wswess3998]

now its posible.... but they removed touch focus for new models

[@harshkapoor4968]

Can we touch focus from tablet??

[@harshkapoor4968]

Plz reply

[@mossite]

Yes, you can touch focus via the tablet or smartphone .

[@harshkapoor4968]

mossite it works while video recording ??

[@jacekm87]

Unfortunately not...

[@ExON00]

They must have changed the app and made it more useless, Ican't barely control enything on the phone. not even touch to focus.

[@TayThames]

which tablet are you using?

[@mossite]

It is a Huawei Media Pad M2 8"

[@kingmenace423]

It doesn't work for the a6000

[@republikiptek3742]

You can use Sony imaging edge to record video on Sony a6000 but you need to install tweak and update smart remote embeded

[@YoungDen]

Yes this works with A6000 very well

[@MrMosabSOmar]

Young Den it's not working .. not even supported. . if it works for you I would really like to know how. . thanks

[@YuxinZhou13]

Well, how? It doesn’t work for video mode for me!

[@nvtnath97]

can i use smartphone too with a6000 for record a video?

[@mutoler]

unfortunately no

[@republikiptek3742]

Yes you can but you need install tweak and update smart remote embedded

[@TecknicolT]

its useless if you can't use pp

[@Cfoxv1]

Lucas Archier That's what I'm saying! Wtf??? Is there another app to be able to do this??

[@WindsorElNomada]

No apps that allow you use your smartphone like a real monitor, so sad because is not even a semiprofessional option. No more option to buy a real external monitor

[@angeltrinidad1850]

Just a thought: what if you bought a small external device/moniter that has an HDMI input, then connect the camera to that via a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable?

[@WYOKING]

Anyone else hate these mercari ads?

[@alvinbechter3398]

gut✌

[@sammaxine6078]

Sad thing for sony a6000 users!!! :(

[@republikiptek3742]

Don't be sad, you can use your smartphone as external monitor using Sony imaging edge

[@mrkobzor2017]

It works realy bad with video

[@fufu1405]

This only works on wifi then.

[@mossite]

Well the camera kinda creates it`s on wifi network. So it usually works everywhere.

[@fufu1405]

mossite Oh that's actually really cool then. Thanks

[@DemperAV]

What a fucking shame this app is. I bought the A6500 to mount on the car during a documentary roadtrip and control the camera from the inside. Anyone has a work around for the picture profile? Maybe another app?
