Any Remote trigger for a6000/a7?

[uzman1243]

I've never used a remote trigger before but I'd like to get one to shoot in bulb mode. Can you guys suggest some?

There are two options I know of. Sony makes a remote that works for their cameras. The remote that came with my A77 works with the a6000. You can also download a remote app from Sony to the a6000 from their play memories apps. It works with the iPhone and maybe other smartphones but I am not sure. This app turns your iPhone or iPad into a remote that even lets you see the composed image in the phone or tablet. You will also need the play memories app for the phone/tablet.

Triggertrap looks interesting, you buy their dongle/cable and use it with your mobile. It´s seemingly got a large number of features, a motion detector that uses your phones camera for instance, wich sounds potentially very useful/fun. Also soundtrigger. (Bulb mode too of course)

Caveat: Haven´t tried it myself so I can´t at all vouch for its functionality IRL. Have the impression - after a quick google - that it´ll work a bit better with Iphone than Android.

I use Yangnuo RF-603ii and a 2.5mm - micro USB cable. I don't use bulb but it's exactly the same as the shutter button with half press a 11fps if needed so I imagine bulb would work just fine.

I use the following cable and remote. The best thing about this remote it is can be used wired, wireless and with any system with the right cable.

This is one of the best wireless shutter remotes out there. The nice thing about this remote is if you change camera brands you can still use the remote by just buying a suitable cable. Also it uses AAA batteries in both the TX and RX which are easy to obtain. Highly recommended.

Looks good. Can I use it wired if I wanted to?

Are there any wired remote options intervalometer that have the 2.5mm port so it can be used with any camera?
