Hello forum,

Wifi connection to iPad and controlling via qdslrdashboard I get realized.

Tethered shooting with my windows 7 (64bit) Notebook is not possible, because of no reaction after trying to connect to the Sony A7 via USB symbol in qdslrdashboard.

# Is tethered shooting in this combination possible?
# What I have to do for successfull connection to my camera?

Thank you in advance

There is no USB connection with Sony and qDD. Only Wi-Fi.

You can still do the wifi tethering with A7 and Windows 7 notebook, just use the camera's remote control app
turn it on and connect A7's wifi with notebook, then open dslrdashboad (windows version), click the sony icon to connect.

One thing is that, while tether shooting in this way, u can't use the EVF ( it works this way with my a7rii, i guess it's the same with a7)
