What's wrong with the one that is already provided in the camera's firmware?

You can get any remote shutter that works with your Sony.

Never having used one before (the Canon remote 4 times in 3 yrs) I'm unfamiliar with them ,but this years challenge to myself is learning long exposure and night shooting and using a tripod more often (currently about 2% of my photos use a tripod)
I was also looking for thing to put under the tree from Santa !

Although my camera has 1 built into it I purchased the Vello Shutter Boss 2 from B&H. If you want to change any settings , its easier/quicker to do so than going into the camera menu.

I've used several generic intervalometers for different cameras, and they all worked fine. I've paid anywhere from $5.00 - $35.00. Look at the features, and make sure you get what you need.

I like Neewer's intervalometer for Sony:
https://www.amazon.ca/Neewer-Intervalometer-Photography-Multi-Terminal-DSC-RX100III/dp/B00NSE1F6I/ref=sr_1_4

I have two of them. They work well.

I have never had much luck with wireless intervalometers and always use a wired unit.
