Works on Sony A7 iii , nice budget remote !
For $30 this controller does the job for Sony A7iii. Just make sure to turn on. Hit MENU / Setting3 page / IR Remote CTRL / ON. If the controller doesn’t work, take out the battery of the camera and turn back on and it should now work :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Works even BEHIND the camera, Power-saver, easy to use
Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2019
Verified Purchase
Works with Sony A7II - even from BEHIND the camera. That's awesome. Many other remotes require that you stand in front of it and point the remote directly at the IR sensor. Lame. But not so with this Sony remote.

What a great little tool! "Great" because it does all the things it should do well: take photos remotely, start video (remember, you must put your CAMERA in video mode first), it lets you pull up Menu, and call up that good ol' histogram on your Sony camera all with the press of a button.
I LOVE that this remote automatically goes into power-saving mode. This means you won't drain your batteries when you're not using it. The cheaper, simpler competitor remote here on Amazon doesn't go into auto power saving and that results in constantly dead batteries. Not so with this one.

And "little" because it's really quite small. Some might consider it too tiny but Sony thought of putting a little cutout on the back of it that allows you to feed a little sling through it so you can put it on your keychain or attach a key charm to it, or even attach it to one of your camera bag's zippers.

Very happy with this remote. It lets you do shake-free exposures, even long ("bulb") exposures, timed selfies, and it works from just about any angle, whether behind or in front of your Sony. I think it's worth every penny.

4.0 out of 5 stars Item would be excellent and get 5 stars if playback controls worked with camera unplugged from a tv.
Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2012
Verified Purchase
I do like the remote and it is very useful. A great accessory for my A77.

The angle of attack is actually better then I would have expected. I know that some of the aftermarket remotes seem to only work from straight on or slight of to the side. This remote will pick up from the sensor side slightly to the back of the camera without any problems. The angle from the side without the sensor is going to be limited by the size of lens you are using and how well the lens gets in the way of the sensor on the camera. Other things that affect the angle used would be reflective surfaces that could help out in getting the remote to bounce the signal at the camera sensor.

Playback controls are only active when the camera is connected to a tv, and that seems to be normal. I'm not removing a star for that. 4 stars is a good product that a customer likes. What would make using a remote like this excellent and a 5 star + would be if a person could use the play back features while the camera is disconnected from a tv. I do product photography and find the remote very useful not having to reach to the camera whenever a new product is framed up. Sometimes pending on the item, I know that I will need to review the image just to make sure I'm happy with it, and not having to reach for the camera would be great.

It's not that I'm lazy, just that I have days where I will shoot any where from 20 up to 80 items (approx 1-5 pictures per item), and then after that I have to edit all of them in PS.

Very nice remote that I would recommend to anyone with a Sony camera.

5.0 out of 5 stars This device did not work until I found out how to pair it with the camera.
Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2019
Verified Purchase
This device did not work at all. I took it straight out of the box and reinserted the included battery. No go. Now I plan to get a new battery and check it again. Was disappointed that this was non functional right out of the packaging. It comes with a plastic insert that prevents the battery from making contact. So you have to pull out the insert, which I did. Nothing. Then I opened the case and took out the battery and inspected it and reinstalled. No go. I bought this to go with my Sony Alpha A6000 camera. Wouldn't pair or work at all. I will update after I get a new battery. This device had really good reviews and stated it would be compatible with my camera. Nope.

AND THEN....I watched a random YouTube video that showed in my Alpha 6000 Menu > Settings > page 5 or 6 > remote control > ON.

The remote control instructions that were included did NOT go into any detail about how to pair the remote with the camera. Frustration !!!! Eventually I got everything working but it was almost a month after I bought the damn thing.

Wow, exceeded expectations!
1 Runs A6000 and A6500 camera from front or behind. Some reviewers say it only runs from the front or the side which is incorrect.
2 I like the 2 sec delay button for tripod work.
3 The remote zoom key will zoom the 16-50 power zoom kit lens very smoothly. BTW I gained a new appreciation for that lens while taking photos of kids and parents with Santa. (It worked better than my 20mm, 35mm, 50mm, 55-210mm or 10-18mm for that purpose. It was not on a tripod, I had to run and gun in a small space with lots of people.)
4 I love that it can run the video even when the mode dial is set on A, P, S, etc. My fingers have never worked well with the camera video button.
5 It can view photos, zoom in and delete while the camera is on a tripod.
6 Menu key allows you to scroll thru the camera menu using the up, down, forward and back key.
7. Remote is the perfect size. It is actually smaller than it looks in the Amazon ad.
8. It can scroll thru all the display buttons for shooting and viewing. Very nice for checking the "blinkies" while on a tripod.
9. Can rotate the image orientation on camera.

Well, this arrived in the mail an hour ago so there may be more than what I have described, very inexpensive for all that it can do.

It took me a while to take the time to figure out that this RMT-DSLR2 remote does NOT work with the RX100 vii camera as had been recommended on one of the YouTube Sony CameraTutorials talking specifically about the RX100 vii. This is unfortunate.
Because I missed the window to return the product by a week, I can't get a refund. Lesson learned.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable and easy remote control for the camera

The item works exactly as described, no issues so far. The main tip is remote sensor on your camera must "see" the IR LED on remote. So, if sensor is located in the front then the remote must either be directed towards front of camera (not necessary on 0 degree angle, but some kind of) or infrared reflecting surface should be close by (for example, a wall or a screen).
When I used it indoor then it works even when pressed behind camera. Otherwise I tried at certain angle from the front side to achieve reliable control.
The best applications are: selfie and steady shots with tripod (or other steady base). In case of tripod you can make bracketing or single shots very sharp even with very slow shutter speed.
Depending on camera type you can connect to TV via HDMI cable and remotely control picture displayed on TV from camera. But this is just fun extra to main function.

Lo adquirí para mi Sony A6500 y funciona de maravilla, tanto para disparos a distancia como para reproducir videos, preferí adquirir el original que un genérico por menos de la mitad de su valor, vale la pena la calidad.

I used it for controlling the video taking on my very old Sony SLT A55 camera. Basically it works as intended as long as you can tilt the LCD panel of the camera to be sure that the video recording is on and off. Not every press is a success, you thus need to look at the flipped LCD to be sure that the recording is started or stop. It can't work reliablly without the camera's LCD.
