Hello, I want to use my HP laptop as a field monitor for my Sony a6000. Naively, I thought a micro HDMI to full HDMI to DisplayPort adapter would do the trick. Unfortunately, HP DisplayPorts are typically for outputting not inputing. A capture card (HDMI to USB) can display what the camera is recording onto the laptop screen. Although, this is not for recording. I simply want the laptop to act as a field monitor. Without the use of the USB on the camera, as that is being used for a remote shutter release. There is the Imaging Edge Webcam software. But that doesn't support the a6000 and is not really the field monitor solution I am looking for anyway. I feel there must be a way to have the camera's micro HDMI connect to the HP laptop and display the camera screen. But how? I'm close to the point of giving up. Is a solution I'm missing? Kind regards, Emrys -

I use A99(full frame) and A68(CSC). I too use the Zeiss 24-70mm f/2.8 on the a99 - as my "walk around" lens I also use a Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8 and Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 (thinking about upgrading to 70-20mm f/2.8) for landscape and architecture. I have a Sigma 170-500mm attached to my a68 for wildlife but sometimes carry my Minolta 500mm in my bag for lightness. For low light and fine work, I have a Sigma 50mm f/1.4 "art" lens. As you probably guess, I am an amateur who dabbles in various forms of photography. All my equipment is second hand, but in excellent condition - so it may not be the most up to date, but still quality glass at less than 1/2 the price of the latest gear. -

I just moved from a LUMIX GH5 to the A7SIII, and I couldn’t be happier! I also couldn’t be poorer. 😀 -

Hi, unfortunately i have the same issue with my a7ii and imaging edge mobile. Did you find any solutions yet? -
What Altura Flash ? Are you sure you have the Sony version ? Which hot shoe adapter ? The A850 is also using pre-flash TTL so it should work unless there is an element in your set-up that is not communicating properly with the body
