NightShot® on/off via Sony Camera Remote API and/or LANC code -
now sony camcorders have electronic control on nightshot function (eg fdr-ax100, hdr-cx900) possible (and awesome) if controlled via wifi and/or via lanc.
filming nocturnal wildlife can made easier using pir motion/heat-based detectors , daylight sensors. in past nightshot feature had physically switched on/off using servo controller such http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/jluqss4rwte/hqdefault.jpg control of nightshot via wifi/camera remote api and/or lanc suited filming wildlife, , possibly many other applications such security/surveillance.
camera housing divers use lanc codes (example mvhs-ax100) , use nightshot function filming deep underwater covert infrared lighting. looking @ lanc codes http://www.boehmel.de/lanc.htm doesnt appear nightshot has been implemented yet.
note fdr-ax100 & hdr-cx900 have access lanc controls via multi-terminal , sony 10 pin a/v r jack adapter vmc-avm1.
i think purposes lanc command enough, including in upcoming update of sony camera remote api add more versatility. or perhaps implementing via wifi easier via lanc?
