I'm having a little difficulty figuring out how to use the A7's wi-fi capabilities. I want to be able to connect to my iPhone/iPad for camera control (remote, etc, like I can with the Olympus OIShare app). Occasionally, it would be nice to tether to my desktop system too.
Do I need the "Play Memories" application?
With the E-M1, the camera acts as a server. I turn on its WiFi and connect to it with the iPad, then run the camera control/download images/etc from the OIShare app. Does the A7 work the same way?
What about the download apps for the Sony? Intervalometer, etc ... They all seem to want me to connect the camera to my wireless network. Well, my wireless network is secured with WPA2 Personal encryption ... NO matter how many times I've chosen the correct server and entered the password, the A7 says it cannot connect to it. Huh?
Terrible documentation on this stuff from Sony ...
Any help appreciated.
