Hi Product Hunt! I'm Oleksii, a solo iOS developer and an a7 III shooter.
Sony's current phone app only supports its newer bodies, and the old one never let me get RAW files onto my phone or turn an interval series into a video without a computer. So I built Camera Red.
A few things I learned on the way. Over Wi-Fi the a7 III doesn't speak PTP/IP: it exposes Sony's old JSON-RPC Camera Remote API, with live view as an MJPEG stream. RAW can't come over that API, but these bodies can push files over FTP, so the app runs a small FTP server on the iPhone and the camera uploads RAW+JPEG to it as you shoot. Timelapses are shot by the app as an intervalometer and assembled on the phone, and the frames are kept so the clip can be rebuilt up to 4K later.
There's a demo camera inside, so you can try the whole app without a Sony. No account, no analytics, nothing leaves the phone.
I'd love feedback on which bodies you'd want next, and whether a Bluetooth remote or geotagging matters more to you.
