Flash switches of automatically on alpha 7

Hi,

I just bought wifi booth and really like the app but I encounter one strange problem when using it with my Sony alpha 7.

After connecting the app I have first to turn on the flash in the camera menu. Than the flash will wok for three or four pictures and then be turned of automaticall by the camera. I have then to reactivate it in the camera menue again. This renders the app currently practically useless.

Is there anythin I miss? I would be happy for every hint.

Thanks and best regards

Uli

Hi Uli,
That is very strange! When you use the official SONY app to take pictures (instead of wifibooth), does the same thing happen?
Assuming the answer is yes, then you could try updating the firmware of your camera, and also updating the app "Smart Remote" if you didn't already do that.
