Ratings and reviews

Seems like a great app. Range and connection is great. I think my only gripe is how "big" the previews are. I'm not sure of the exact resolution of the preview, but they take a few seconds to load. I wish we could get a lower res preview for more of an "instant" result, in both party mode and live view. I know a few seconds doesn't seem like a lot but when you're against the clock or working quick, it can add up. Can this be an option in a future release?

D750 is not fully supported. Area focus AF-C does not work, it keeps changing to wide area AF-S focus. Liveview is too laggy to use for action shots. Works fine for portraits and still photos though. Tried connecting with USB and wifi, same results. App still works ok overall. I don't think it's worth a subscription to get all the features of pro and I definitely don't recommend paying for pro features you won't use. But still, it is better than the other apps I've tried which is good.

My biggest complaint is the lag on S21. It's almost unusable when shooting with it. Connection makes no difference Anyone else? REPLY: like I said connection makes no difference. What I mean by thst it's the UI that lags not the image coming from it. So just trying to do things within the app or click to take focus, or shoot is all super lagged. I've even reset, made sure all resources were clear but for sone reason on my S21 it's crazy slow.

What's new

* can change highlight color for Focus Peaking
* fix bug in liveview when zooming picture
* FIX: movie recording did not work for some Nikon cameras over USB (Nikon Z, D7200)
* adaptions for Android 14
* support for Canon EOS R5 Mark II
