I did a search in here and didn't find anything about a remote control. I looked on line and found a LOT of gibberish that I'm not sure is applicable. I don't particularly care if it's wired or wireless, but I would like a multiple shot, intervalometer-style remote like I'm used to from the DSLR.

I can find a bunch on Amazon, but if the remote works for an A7R III or A7 IV or A9 does that mean it ALSO works on the Alpha 1? I don't know if the items just hadn't been updated in a long time, but I didn't find many that said they'd work on an A7R IV - would one of THOSE work on the Alpha 1?

I HAVE an older, universal, wired remote that I've used on my Nikons. It SAYS it'll work on the A7R ???, and the cord it showed for the Sony was a USB 2 Micro B. Tried it. Nothing...

Everything I've found appears to plug into the Micro B port but the one I have and tried did nothing. What do I need for a wired/wireless remote for the Alpha 1?

[QUOTE="GracieAllen, post: 21898, member: 5112"] I did a search in here and didn't find anything about a remote control. I looked on line and found a LOT of gibberish that I'm not sure is applicable. I don't particularly care if it's wired or wireless, but I would like a multiple shot, intervalometer-style remote like I'm used to from the DSLR. I can find a bunch on Amazon, but if the remote works for an A7R III or A7 IV or A9 does that mean it ALSO works on the Alpha 1? I don't know if the items just hadn't been updated in a long time, but I didn't find many that said they'd work on an A7R IV - would one of THOSE work on the Alpha 1? I HAVE an older, universal, wired remote that I've used on my Nikons. It SAYS it'll work on the A7R ???, and the cord it showed for the Sony was a USB 2 Micro B. Tried it. Nothing... Everything I've found appears to plug into the Micro B port but the one I have and tried did nothing. What do I need for a wired/wireless remote for the Alpha 1? [/QUOTE]
