Sony RMT-DSLR2 Reviews

B&H is awesome!

By William

Date: 2023-01-03

Product worked great and is factory new as expected. What I like most about B&H is that I can find products to support my older equipment which is new to me. I don't have to search pre-owned products from suppliers that I am unfamiliar with. Prices are always very reasonable as well. Shipping is very fast. Thanks!

Great remote for my Sony a7rii

Needed exactly a remote like this so I can control my camera remotely. I had the Sony RMT-P1BT (so expensive) but I had to return it because with this remote I can control mostly all of my camera functions especially when my camera is connected to my 4k monitor and play back videos unlike my RMT-P1PT remote. Great value and I highly recommended getting this remote if you own a compatible Sony camera.

Great remote

It does what it's supposed to do..

Yup, it works w/my A7ii, no problem. It is a line-of-sight remote, but for $30, it does its job. I got it for self video, and it is a time saver and a hassle-saver. The Still control has an additional 2" shutter delay button, which saves me from walking behind the camera for that adjustment. I do suggest putting velcro on the back of it, because it's so small and light, it can disappear easily.

This remote works great with my real-estate photography. I'm able to get the perfect shots without moving my camera when pushing the shutter button. It also allows me to remotely take shots when my tripod is in tight places..

Don't wait, just get it!

Seriously, I cannot believe I waited so long to get this. It works wonderfully with my A6400 and makes recording myself a breeze.

Great little affordable remote

Needed a remote like this for my Sony a7riii camera. I can function almost all of the functions on my camera, especially play and pause video on my TV. Highly recommend if you have a compatible Sony camera.

question

I can't get mine to function with my a7R. Works fine with my a57 and a99. They both have Drive Menu options for wireless remote, but my a7R does not.What am I missing??
Asked by: Anonymous
Tom, scroll in the menu all the way over to the toolbox and turn the Remote Control option to on. They moved it in the menu. The instructions for the Remote Commander are older than the cameras and are now inaccurate.
