I can't get it to work with Sony a7. I turned on the "Remote Ctrl" from the menu options but it does nothing. What am I doing wrong?

I have an A7-R and it works well. How far away are you? Was battery protector removed? Try changing battery if it still does not work.

A7/A7R menu, turn "Remote Ctrl option to "On"" (default is off). It works. If it doesn't work, please contact us via Amazon's "Ask the Seller" button, we can help you. We will reply to your email soon, normally within 12 hours.

I bought one. I didn't have any trouble finding the settings in the A7 menu and my battery is installed properly without the plastic interrupter strip and I couldn't get it to work. If they shipped it with a dead battery, shame on them. I don't have another. Where is the camera reading the IR signal? Through the lens? Are you supposed to see a light on the front of the remote when you push the button?

I turned that on with my sony a7 as well, but I can't get it to work. I removed the battery film. what should I do now...

Sorry, I got rid of this thing quite a while back. If I understand your question correctly, push the stop button. If that is not working, call the Sony help line in your owners manual.

Make sure your camera is in the mode to use the remote. I had a problem as well at first and then realized my camera was not in the mode for remote use.

I did not use any menus. Try this...Turn the camera offAttach the device using the cableImportant: Extend the antennae on the remote (I've had it not work right beside the camera until I pull out the antennae)Do a test with the piece attached to the camera. Hit the button on the front, if it takes a picture you know its connected OK.Then test from the remote.Hope this helps.

Took me forever to find it was hidden in the drive mode function on my A77. Once I set it to remote it worked flawlessly.

For my A77. The "hotshoe" is basically just a holder for the receiver. It plugs in with the 3 prong Sony cord that's labelled remote on my camera . not sure if the a7r has the same ports but i do think it uses the standard nikanon hotshoe instead of the alpha

Dear friend, I have a sony A65 too, but this adapter does not work properly. I do recommend this: Cowboystudio 16 Channel Radio Wireless Remote for Studio Strobe, Compatible with Sony Digital SLR Camera, you can find it on AMAZON and works perfectly.

It did not work for me. Maybe it was a dead battery. I ordered a remote from Canon. More expensive. But, it is working!

I don't know. I have an A77, so all my research has been based around my equipment. You can go to Sony's web site and look up your camera, then check and see if the remote is listed as one of the optional accessories. I do believe this is the most common remote for most of the cameras they offer.

It works very well with both my A65 and A77. Just go into the settings and select wireless and remote should be detected. All functions worked as they should. Just go in and experiment. Great for tripod shots.

Go into your shutter release settings from the menu, and there should be an option to choose remote (I have a D3000, not 100% on the D60) Here's a good link: https://support.nikonusa.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/11940

Yes This remote should work fine with the Sony a77, I checked the manual and the sony brand RML1AM Remote Commander connects to the side of the camera and so should this unit. I love this wireless remote as long as you keep extra batteries available. However b100dh0und does not agree. He has used it on an a77 and it worked for him, but he had more comments that I'm listing below... By b100dh0und Amazon Verified Purchase Pros: This is the cheapest in the line if you are looking for Wireless Shutter Release. I have tried it on Sony A77 and it works pretty much as promised. I used it for continuous bracketed shots. Cons: The receiver doesn't fit in the Sony Hot Shoe. You will have to leave the receiver dangling with the wire attached to the camera which i hated to an extent that i sold it out to my friend who has a standard Hot Shoe for his Canon t4i. Bottom Line: I think if you are a Sony shooter with a non-standard hot shoe. I would recommend you to get Vello Wireless shutter release from B&H Photo instead of this one.

Are you setting the camera to remote release mode first? This mode is next to the MUP mode on the left of the viewfinder, a dial below the selection for different shooting modes like manual, auto etc. The remote should work once set to that mode.

Sorry, the RML1AM remote release doesn't work with the Nex-7. You'll need an IR release.

Yeah. I work with sony a77 with FA-HS1AM adapter (must be modified - too low voltage to start trigger!!!). Nikon - works good. Leica works good too. Flash complex by Aurora (Korea)

Its manual focus works fine for me. I have the a7r and have had no problems using manual focus.

Did you set your camera to the appropriate setting in order to use the remote. I have a nikon V1 and you have to set the remote to be used in the menu section. Under self timer option. Hope this helps.
