Before I bought the Sony A7R III I used to work with A7R. Because I am an Architectural Photographer I always take my shots with an iPad using Smart Remote Control and Imaging Edge Mobile.

Working with the A7R I could use the Focus Magnifier ( very large screen working with an iPad ) but now with the Sony A7R III there is no possibility to use the Focus Magnifier while working with Imaging Edge Mobile, so I can't take the advantage of a larger screen using my iPad 

Do I miss something ?

Henn.

No, it is not possible anymore. Your previous a7 had apps installed (play memories mobile, the predecessor of imaging edge mobile.) and what you want worked with one of those apps. Sony stopped with those apps on later a7 models.  Perhaps it is possible to install imaging edge (not the mobile version) on your pad and fully control your camera using your pad connected via a cable to the usb port of your camera. But I am not an apple man myself.

      A6600 + 18-135mm/f3.5-5.6, Image problem at 18mm

      By Pieter · Posted

      For modern lens design, this is totally normal behaviour. To minimize size and weight of the lens and to improve many optical aspects, compromises are made in areas where the image can be corrected digitally. Distortion is one of these compromises: heavy barrel distortion is very common at the wide end of the focal range, up to a point where the corners of the sensor are not even covered by the projected image (i.e. rendered black). This is fixed by applying the proper distortion correction in your RAW editor: the black corners are stretched to a point beyond the image crop. Any leftover vignetting is then also digitally corrected. All this is done in-camera when processing a JPEG image, which is why it only shows up in RAW files. 2. Yes, these black corners are a property of the lens, not of the camera.

      Hi Guys, I was shooting some flowers today. when I checked the images back home, I found out that all images in RAW format with 18mm focal length had heavy image distortion and were black-cornered. I wonder if this is the same case for you guys? If so,  is this issue solvable? if so, how did you guys solve it? 2. can I still use any focal length that's larger than 18mm( ex. 16mm) on this camera body?     Note: Len is Sony's 18-135mm OSS only images that had a focal length of 18mm had this problem only in RAW format. the same image in Jpeg did not get affected   Here are some sample images for your reference: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10-I9wUBPo9KT-aaW7Fhtx2v9WCnJ3vbT/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/10-I9wUBPo9KT-aaW7Fhtx2v9WCnJ3vbT/view?usp=sharing

      Check the contents of this forum, that subject has been covered many times.  If you are looking for adapters with best AF functionality, Sony's own offerings is probably your best choice.
