FDR-AX53 Remote Control ?

[Tantramancan]

My Old Handycam has a remote control pad which has good uses in certain situations, but I cannot seem to find out if the FDR-AX53 has one OR an equivalent method ( ie android app ) to do this function. I sometimes want to zoom in/out from fixed tripod on one camera whilst mobile with other camera. Thanks for any help.

Hi guys I have an old Sony RMT-807 but only the zoom function works (set to VTR2) with the FDR-AX53. Is there any way that I can get the other function to work?

Hi smileyd777..

According to the Sony website, the RMT-807 is not compatible with the FDR-AX53.

Does the menu and playback work when using remote?  My ax53 touch screen stopped working and I cannot get into menu or playback.  Looking for remote to see if that is a work around.  Thanks!

Thanks four post about changing the Settings to turn the remote control function on. I just got a replacement FDR-AX53 and knew my old one worked well with the RMT-835, but didn't with this new AX53. I just had to enable it in Settings and all was good. Thanks again, saved me a lot of searching.
