Sony has released a new desktop application called Imaging Edge Webcam that allows users to easily transform their Sony digital camera into a high-quality webcam by simply connecting it to a PC via USB, free of cost.

Imaging Edge Webcam allows users to live stream and video conference in one easy step while also taking full advantage of Sony’s advanced imaging technology such as industry-leading autofocus, high resolution picture quality and additional unique features of each compatible camera.

“We will continue to adapt and evolve to meet the needs of our customers. Their voice is critical to everything that we do in this industry” said Ryo Ochi, General Manager, Digital Imaging Division, Sony Electronics Asia Pacific. “Given the growing demand for live streaming and video communication, we’re excited to share a new application that gives so many loyal Sony’s customers the ability to quickly and easily transform their camera into a highly effective webcam for live streaming, video calls and so much more.”

At launch, Imaging Edge Webcam is compatible with 35 Sony camera models and the newly announced Alpha 7S III as well.
