Sony Creators App - How to Film Yourself for FREE

How to film yourself for free using the Sony Creators app, the long awaited update of the Sony Imaging Edge Mobile app. It's fast, it's reliable and it allows you to control the Sony ZV-E1 - which I'm using here in this video, Sony A7IV, Sony FX3, Sony FX30, Sony A7RV, and more to come hopefully when updated. The best thing is that it's free, easy to use and has touch focus!

I have looked for a video like this for 2 days. I’m about to order my A7IV camera & which will be my very first camera for content creation and so it was essential to know that I could create content on my own without needing to have someone do it for me thank you so much for this. New sub

Is there a way to have it be just a shutter/record button without the live imaging?

Creators app also transfers pictures slower than the imaging edge app. I believe it's transferring raw files as well.

Ok, finally convinced me to update my FX30 and make the move to the creators app 😊 Thanks for the quick insights.

I'm jumping from a DJI Pocket to an ZV-E1. For baby steps I want to start with the Creator App and just film in studio. Do I need to be investing huge time in my on camera menus or can do my first 2 or 3 vlogs using the Creator App?

I dig your enthusiasm. Thank you for your video ✌🏼️

I wonder if the A7C works with this. The imaging edge app is frustrating to use.

[Frameable]

I can't get display lut setting? Is it because of the camera? I have sony a7iv. So when previewing slog on creator app I can only see grey images 😅

Great Video thanks. I have this working for my A7RV with the IPhone, but like you have said in the Video, I have issues trying to get this to then work with the iPad. You mentioned you turn one off before you use the other, did you mean "physically" ie: Power down the IPhone before using the iPad, and vice versa? I just can't seem to get it working on the iPad, which would actually be more beneficial to me. thanks again !

Love your videos! I want to connect either my Sony A7IV or A7RV to a Samsung S7 FE 12.4 inch tablet with Sony's Creator's app. Can I use a 20 or 25 foot USB-C to USB-C cable for a better connection?

Hey Thanks, just installed it but wondering why the press record button does not work? Is there something I need to set up on the camera to get that working and on my iPad there seems to be missing some features like auto rotate when I turn the iPad and full display mode with out having to go Ito the app to change to full view setting...? Or am I missing something? Thanks

[paulg]

I have one other question Phillip. It says if the movement is skippy, turn bluetooth off. BUT if I turn Bluetooth off, I lose connection. Do you know how I make this a pure Wifi connection only? I assume this is possible, or they wouldn't tell you to turn off Bluetooth. Apologies for perhaps a dumb question here .. I am new to all this ! thanks

[christopherdurbin]

Thanks for the review! Does the app still work if you have an external recorder connected via HDMI?

[mtmccornack]

Mine errors out and claims it wont work when in photo mode while on my fx3 for some reason??? Albeit I've only had the app installed for 1 week, so more research is needed!

Always handy to have remote features on a camera, Sony seems to have got this one all wrapped up. 👍

Its not as stable as imaging edge. Imaging edge disconnects if you view pictures on the camera. Most people haven't realized that you can't do that. Creators app doesn't have the connection distance but allows you to view pictures on camera while staying connected. Just can't go as far away as the imaging edge app. Creators app also transfer file slower. I believe it's because it transfers raw files as well.

[JonnyGiosPhotography]

Does it track birds in this mode and do you need to change the setting. I have it in bird mode and tracking humans when I’ve not selected it

[MattheasJ]

The real question is: can you upload to your own storage or must you use their cloud service?

[jiayi]

Can the iPhone15 Pro use Creator for wireless transmission of H265 10-bit 422 videos?

No comprende Compadre, everyone leave a bad review about this app, how is working so smooth for you?
