Visual Story 2.0 adds video today. Sony has released an update to their Visual Story app. The app is a mobile application for professional event photographers. As a result, it simplifies the process of delivering media. Clients can immediately see the media after an event through gallery creation. In addition, Sony’s AI assists the image selection and web delivery concurrently.
SD Card Reader Support and Mass Storage
In case the network connection at the site of the live event is not strong enough, Version 2.0 allows users to select and import media via an SD card reader. Or a USB mass storage connection. Photographers can connect directly to an SD card reader. Or directly to a camera in mass storage mode with a USB cable. In other words, you can use the features of the app without a connection and connect later.
Overall this is a strong update from Sony. They also said they’re working on an Android version.
