You have to install and open PlayMemories Mobile App in your Iphone first and connect it to the camera before you can transfer a photo to Iphone.
Select "Send to Smartphone" or "Send to Computer" under Wifi connection Menu in your camera to transfer the photo.
I did exactly like this......

Put the handphone very close to the camera (basically side-by-side), it should be fast now.
Don't forget that on the first time you connect via wifi, you will also have to use the Sony software to configure your computer as the wifi point. Program should be called 'Wireless Auto Import' if I recall correctly.
Generally transfer over wifi will be around 15-20% slower than using SD direct transfer.
Head on to this site for firmware update 1.10 (for Windows):

Hi,
Anyone observe the following and know why:
1. Distortion is quite high when taking wide angle shots - eg. for group photo, people standing at the extreme left or right have their faces or head distorted.
2. The camera seems to select much higher ISO is P, A, S, M mode than in Intelligent Auto mode or could it be that the ISO recorded is wrong.
3. When taking selfie or using self-timer, it focuses & determines the exposure when you press the shuttle. Anyway to set to it do do so when it takes the photo when the timer ends?

1. You are using raw?
2. The set slower shutter or high aperture in these mode triggers a higher ISO.
3. No.

3. No.
1. No, not using raw. Is there a auto-correction of the lens distortion that I can turn on?
2. I tried many times taking a scene with intelligent auto & P mode, same aperture and shuttle speed was selected by the camera but the ISO is higher in P mode.
3. Oh, then must use mobile phone to take pictures with the camera on a selfie stick. Any wireless remote available for this camera ?

Problem 2 just resolved after updating firmware from 1.00 to 1.10. I think the ISO value is wrongly displayed for intelligent auto mode in 1.00.

This is inherent in all wide angle lenses. The distortion cannot be corrected but can be reduced by careful placement of your subjects within the frame.
If im not wrong, u can always correct inaccuracies with zooms lens using lightroom. Just take ur photos using raw.
You could always shoot with a longer focal length, you have a wide choice afterall.
Yes, you are right but you also lose the F1.8 aperture.
f2.8 ain't really that bad, but i suppose that depends on personal preferences which i can understand.
