A step in the right direction. Pretty stable connection and response times. I could see this replacing an external monitor which would be excellent. The only thing I don't like Is having to toggle between two screens to effectively use the touch focus. If you could touch focus from the main screen where all of your settings are this thing would be at home run. They only major thing I could not find and I don't think is included is focus peaking which would be phenomenal.

Thankyou so very much Sony for the latest update that now allows Gama display assist with the A7SIII. I imagine it is working for other cameras too. What a great and fantastic app! It was a long time coming but worth the wait. It has some advantages over some other monitors and monitor recorders in that no cable is needed for gimbal applications and/no additional transmitter if an assistant is monitoring or controlling focus etc. If someone would come out with a micro size RAW recorder Hmm.

I may have some nitpicks, but I'm still giving 5 stars for Sony addressing complaints by adding things like the Mode Dial Priority switch and then just recently Gamma Display Assist in the app for us A7Siii/A7iv folks. I will literally use this app all the time now.
