How to get files from Camera to Laptop with Bluetooth

Post by micksulley »

I have just bought a new camera, a Sony A7, which has Bluetooth. It was very easy to pair camera and laptop, reports success, which is encouraging.
What do I do now? I was hoping to see the camera show in file explorer but it doesn't and I have no idea what I need to do next.
Any suggestions?

Thanks
Mick

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately that didn't help. All of the examples show file transfer being initiated from the remote device, but there does not seem to be a way to do that on the camera. I will continue to investigate and post if I find a solution.
