I originally got one of these to use with my RX100 but I've just been having a play with it with the A6500.

All I wanted it for really was to replace the ludicrous video record button as I was getting tired of carrying cocktail sticks round with me to operate it with.

However, another huge bonus that I didn't realise it could do is that the zoom rocker on it (which I use to control the optical zoom on the RX100) actually operates the Clear Image Zoom function on the A6500 (and the other A series cameras)

Being able to power the camera on and off from it as well is also very neat.

For £21.99 it's certainly a lot cheaper than the official Sony one that it, erm, 'resembles quite closely' too ;)

May I suggest a wireless version for the folks that want to save even more cash :)

Blimey !

Wonder how forgiving it is when not pointed directly at the front of the camera (presuming thats where the IR receiver is) ?

Yeah unfortunately it has to be LOS to work reliably. I only need the zoom rocker so I can have a smooth clear zoom with prime lenses...
