Great interface for wireless audio and the Sony A series

When searching for a way to get digital audio into the Sony A7 series camera, B&H suggested this adapter. Mounts on the hot shoe, Sony wireless receiver slides in and you're all set! Bada bung! Easy as pie! And absolutely affordable! Thanks, B&H!

Great piece of gear.

If you've got a recent Sony camera that has a smart hot-shoe (check the list...mine was on it), this adapter works great with the Sony Digital Receiver(s) to transmit audio directly without need for another wire. Super cool for gimbal work.

I am shooting with the A7SIII and have been using the UTX-P03D. When I use the dual channel SMAD Unit, the ability to control audio levels in camera is suddenly disabled. Also the in the menu the (MI Shoe Audio Set) option is grayed out, not allowing me to control my levels anymore. Because of this I've been using the 2 channel Sony provided 3.5mm jack. Am I missing something, or does this SMAD unit only provide auto gain with no ability to control audio levels?
Asked by: Sam
Awaiting a Call-Back from Sony on this, to confirm compatibility/usability with the A7s iii. One "theory" is that the A7siii is a "consumer" product and may not be (fully?) compatible.

Can I get 4 audio channels, like the XLR-K3M can do? I am using the SAMD P3D on A7siii. I can only get one stereo channel to the camera. When I try to set the camera menu to audio hot shoe settings it says my audio device needs to be switch to digital. I cannot find that setting. It worked on the XLR-K3M Camera firmware updated Please advise
Asked by: Ron
No, this adapter provides two channels (left and right) of audio to the a7SIII when using a Sony URX-P03D dual-channel wireless receiver. The audio signal sent to the camera is analog, not digital. The adapter enables a wireless connection to the camera's mic input using the Multi-Interface Shoe.

question

The Sony SMADP3D was listed as a recommended adapter for the PMW-300K1. I bought both and have realized the PMW-300K1 doesn't have the necessary MI shoe. Is there an additional adapter sold to make this work with the PMW300?
Asked by: Randy
Unfortunately, the recommendation may have been an error. You are correct in that the Sony PMW-300K1 does not have an MI shoe. There is no adapter available at this moment that will allow you to integrate the Sony SMADP3D with the camera.
