Both of these update in real time and are easily customizable to match your shooting needs. The app also provides an optional false color overlay if you want help dialing in the perfect exposure on your subject.

Intuitive Focus Controls

The Monitor & Control app also provides creators with access to a variety of intuitive focus controls like Touch Focus and AF Sensitivity, and a control bar on the side of the screen to enable control of settings, including manual focus. Because of the wireless connection, another user can tap a subject shown on the second screen from the tablet or smartphone to track their subject using Real-time Tracking. This way, the camera operator can concentrate on moving the camera without worrying about focusing. This is another major enhancement in the quest to provide freedom for creators to create.

Sony Monitor & Control App

The new app even provides control of Picture Profile/Scene file settings, LUT switching and other operations. LUT can also be applied in Log shooting so that an image resembling the finished image after post-production can be checked on a larger screen while recording.
