SONY Nex 5N without telecommand if HDMI Video link

[nisouck]

Hi,

With my Sony Nex 5N, I can see a strange problem; I explain.

Without video link via the HDMI output, all work perfect; I can start photo or video via my Stratosnapper or my gentled.

If I make a video link with the HDMI output I can start and stop the video but the photo can't be started.

Do you know this problem?

I am with the firmware version 1.01 and somebody told me that's the problem doesn't exist with the 1.00.

So, if somebody has this Sony Nex 5N 1.00 firmware version it's would be great!

This is being discussed Ina couple of threads right now. Try searching for one called "NEX downlink". Lots of info there, but the short answer is that it's caused by the auto-focus. Switch to manual and it should work fine. Some other folks claim to have success with auto if you set the camera up in a vet specific way, but I haven't personally tested it yet (hopefully this weekend).

Yes, thank you!

I go to the subject dowblink and I can confirm that Kilby is saying:

With setup P,S,A or M and Flexible autofocus that's work.

Many thanks.
