Sony ha annunciato l'applicazione mobile 'Imaging Edge' che sostituisce l'app PlayMemories Mobile. Il software offre funzionalità di controllo remoto e geolocalizzazione e gli utenti delle recenti telecamere Sony saranno in grado di trasferire video 4K oltre alle immagini a risoluzione piena, mentre i proprietari della Sony a9 saranno anche in grado di auto- trasferire in FTP in background immagini da 2 MP.

Una versione pro "Transfer & Tagging add-on" sarà disponibile per a9, a7R III e a7 III consentendo di aggiungere tag ai metadati delle immagini, incluso l'input vocale per i sottotitoli.

Inoltre, sulla a9 gli utenti saranno in grado di utilizzare la funzionalità FTP in background della fotocamera per trasferire rapidamente le foto a risoluzione intera automaticamente sullo smartphone o su un server remoto attraverso la modalità wireless tramite un punto di accesso Wi-Fi o tramite tethering diretto a un telefono cellulare (se il telefono lo supporta) o tramite connessione USB. Funzioni disponibili dalla primavera del 2019.

Alla fine di questo mese, la versione 1.4 dell'applicazioni desktop di Sony verrà aggiornata e le app Remote, View e Edit supporteranno la creazione di filmati in time-lapse insieme a una migliore usabilità.
