4K5 LightControl vs RawCatch

The Light Control app improves efficiency, flexibility and convenience when working on site. It allows 4K5 work lights to be controlled from a smart phone over a wireless connection. The output of the light can be dimmed in five levels from 20 % to 100 % for optimum and quick adjustment to the actual situation and task. In addition to the display in per cent, the set light level is easy to identify from an easy-to-read graphic. Four work lights can be connected to the app at the same time. It is also possible to operate a work light from two smart phones with synchronised operating status. For work lights running from a battery, information on the charge is provided by a colour and per cent display. The power consumption can be effectively reduced by adjusting the light output to suit requirements as only as much electricity is consumed as is required to complete the task. The work lights can be quickly switched off remotely when leaving the site.

Your Sony Alpha already speaks FTP. RawCatch is the receiver Sony forgot to ship. Take a shot. The full-resolution RAW lands on your iPhone or Mac in seconds — not a downscaled JPEG, not after waiting for the sluggish Creators' App. RawCatch listens on your local Wi-Fi, accepts the file straight from the camera's built-in FTP transfer, and shows you a preview with full EXIF before the next frame goes off. What it does: • Receives ARW over Wi-Fi via the camera's native FTP transfer • Real-time progress: live byte counter, transfer speed, ETA • Embedded RAW preview + full EXIF (camera, lens, ISO, shutter, focal) • Auto-saves to your Photos library (with your permission) • Delete in the app → also deletes from Photos • Survives the screen turning off mid-transfer • One codebase for iPhone and Mac What it fixes: • Creators' App has no RAW over the air. RawCatch: RAW first. • Transfer & Tagging Add-on is JPEG-only and unstable. RawCatch is built on Apple's Network.framework. • Other FTP server apps die in the background. RawCatch keeps the socket alive. • Sony's "100MSDCF / 101MSDCF" per-session folders break Lightroom watch folders. RawCatch flattens everything into one destination. Tested on Sony A7 III. Onboarding includes setup steps for A7 IV, A7R IV/V, α1, A9 II/III, FX3 and a generic fallback for other Sony bodies. No subscription. No cloud lock-in. No analytics. No accounts. Files stay between your camera, your device, and your Photos library. RawCatch is an independent project, not affiliated with Sony Group Corporation.
