I've had some success with this, managed to focus and take a shot remotely, but after switching the camera off it won't re-connect to the laptop. Reading the fine print in Sony's guide I came across this
Connecting the camera to the computer
For the Remote Shooting, stabilize the camera with a tripod, etc., and then connect the camera to the computer using a USB cable.
On the camera, select MENU → [USB Connection] → [PC Remote]. Set [Ctrl w/ Smartphone] in MENU to [Off] beforehand.
Connect the camera to the computer using a USB cable.
“Connecting... ” will appear on the monitor of the camera.
I've searched the menus and the Sony Help document but can't find the command Set [Ctrl w/ Smartphone] in MENU to [Off] beforehand.
I don't possess a smartphone so this is tending towards gibberish for me, any more phone literate people able to help?
