Great shot Mark! Any chance at showing or explaining your DSLR set up for this?

Thanks,

Thanks, I love the fact that your image has a very realistic feel to it where as a great number of HDR images don't. I think there needs to be a new abbreviation for realistic extended range HDR like HDRR or something. Does DSLR controller let you save the settings? I have not rooted my Galaxy Note so I haven't gotten to use DSLR controller yet but have a Nexus 7 on the way and will be trying to use it with my 5DMK2.

just tested on my 650D, works flawlessly. Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Just a notice, if you are running on Jelly Bean, it is possible to get diagonal image corruption in liveview (you'll understand the description when you see it). A proper fix for this will be released mid-August. In the mean time, setting "renderer quality" to "quality" instead of "performance" under settings (cogwheel) will temporarily work around the issue.

Also, if you are running a Nexus 7, yes the buttons are currently small, this will also be remedied mid-August.

For now, I am on vacation !

HDR Mode Failure on SGS3

Ive just downloaded the app to both my Asus Transformer TF101 which appears to work flawlessly using the keyboard dock. I also installed it on my ATT SGS3 for which i have the factory Samsung host adapter. When i try and use the HDR mode im able to set all of the settings but when i tell it to start it takes one photo and crashes. Has anyone else had a similar issue?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dennishhh:
Finally I got to use DSLR controller with the arrival of my new nexus 7. Only have had time to hook it up and shoot a couple of images and will begin learning the program. Everything seems to work except there's a difficulty in adjusting the exposure compensation, might be a sensitivity issue, but probably more like just not using it enough. There definitely is a diagonal image corruption in liveview when magnifying the image but doesn't seem to last a very long and doesn't interrupt with capturing an image. Good news is the camera shows up and all functions seem to work. Will be back tomorrow with more after taking into the studio to do more extensive testing. One of the problems that I can foresee is not being able to charge the battery while using for shooting. Does anyone know if there's any way around this?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] BigBadBuddy:
I'd be interested to see how the nexus 7 works for you with this app. I've used the app on my xoom, but just dropped my xoom, so now I'm considering a nexus 7. Did you need a special OTG cable to connect?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dennishhh:
I did use a Micro USB OTG Host cable. I had bought the clear one which works just fine but also tried a right angle one that was supposed to be a Micro USB OTG Host cable but did not work. There are a couple of response to touch issues that I need to check out more but am hopping chainfire makes some modifications after his vacation. Will have more in a couple of days. I did not try a direct connection without the OTG to see if it works yet, I would suspect not.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dennishhh:
Does anyone know if there is a dual USB set up that lets me charge my tablet while the camera is connected and being controlled by DSLR Controller?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dennishhh:
I just finished my first series of tests with DSLR remote using the Nexis 7 and a Canon 5D MK2. As far as I can tell everything works quite smoothly with no delays or hangups. The only problem that I have is with the initial connection to my camera, I have to unplug the cable from the nexus and plug it back in to make a connection. I tried turning the camera off and pushing the shutter button which still didn't connect . Once the connection is made I can turn off the tablet and turn it back on and still reconnect with no problem. I've been doing multiple HDR exposures and single exposures successfully. One item that I haven't been able to get to work, probably because I don't know how to use it, is the focus stacking feature. Is there a tutorial or how to yet?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andrewilley:
Excellent, just got one of those. What sort of cable is needed to give USB host mode? Do the SGS2 cables work, as they are ten-a-penny on Amazon (e.g. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Micro-B-Cable-Samsung-Galaxy-I9100/dp/B004TJC1IM/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_1_0)

This is really exciting considering I'm getting my Nexus 7 soon! :D :D :D I read through the last few pages and saw some people got it working with the 7. Has anyone else used it in combination with an XSi (450D)?

I'm excited to see the this app come to v 1.0 and I'd like to help any way I can! :)

I ordered an OTG USB cable from Amazon for an expanded storage solution with a female end. Will any USB to micro/mini (can't remember the one the XSi takes) work in conjunction with that to use as a host cable?

This is the one I ordered:

Thanks in advance!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andrewilley:
I think I'll just order the one I saw and see what happens, it was only a couple of £s inc shipping.

Given the prices, I assume there's no clever electronics in these cables, so if it works on an S2 it should work on an S3 too.

Working with Kindle Fire

There doesnt seem to be much interest in the Kindle Fire but, since I have one I figured I would give it a try. I can confirm this is working on Android 4.0 and 4.1 Superuser permissions were required but if you can load Android onto the Fire you should have no problem figuring out SU. No additional configuration was required. And camera is a T3I. I can't post links but I bought the OTG cable by T&S Electronics from Amazon.

---------- Post added at 04:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 AM ----------

I was wondering the same thing and did a search for "powered usb cable" I am not able to post links yet but there is a thread on rootzwiki about a do it yourself with AA batteries. I also was able to theoretically put together a system of cables (4) that would plug from the otg cable to a splitter to camera cable and AC adapter. Just a thought, not a clean solution but a functional one :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ryusen:
Just wanted to add to the list of confirmations:

Nexus 7 with the Canon 5dMk3. Just tested it last night. Have not tried the video functions, but i dont' see why they won't work.

One thing i noticed is that Manual wireless flash triggers don't seem to work (i tried Cyber Syncs and Photix Stratto). On the other hand, the Odin, TTL transmitter does work. I would imagine Pocket Wizard TTL will work as well. As best as i can determine, this is an issue with the canon camera on live view rather than the DSLR Remote software.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dennishhh:
Great to hear all these devices are starting to show some consistency. Can't wait to hear if your 4 cable system works, I also purchase a couple of new cables, one from T&S, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005GGBYJ4/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i00 and this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0081CRXGI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 both of which work and are well made. The right angle one is nice because its a little more out of the way and doesn't get knocked out as easily.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Crafty77:
I appreciate chainfire is on vacation, but I see a few others posting here who are using their nexus 7, so I have two questions:

1) did you need to root to make DSLR Controller work

2) Any recommendations for an OTG adapter ? Especially from UK sources.

Thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ryusen:
I did not root.

As for the cable, i just randomly found one on Amazon. IT had a right angle adapter. One thing i found is that because the side of the N7 is beveled, the cable doesn't sit as tight as i would expect.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andrewilley:
I just purchased http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004TJC1IM/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00 from (Amazon UK, £2.30 inc free shipping) and it works great on my Samsung Galaxy S3, so I guess it would work fine on a Nexus too. Amazing what a phone can do these days!!

Hi

I installed the software "Remote Release" on my Sony Xperia Arc S (Android-4) and my Canon 50D.

Unfortunately, the terminal tells me: "could not find a supported camera. If You have a connected camera supports, please make sure it is Turned On. If it is Already turner on, try walking it up by pressing the shutter button. Please make sure a memory card is present in the camera as well! ".

Can you help me?

Feature set Saving Images

First off all, app works great on I9300 running on Wanamlite 2.0, Canon 7D.

The in the future available functions stated on the dslrcontroller website contains the feature to store images to your phone. This is the number one feature I am awaiting. Maybe the dev has the same opinions/ideas for this feature but if not, here are mine.

It would be great to be able to save photos (both jpeg and raw) from the camera to the storage of the phone, selecting a number of photos or import all.

Furthermore, for some applications, a feature to connect the phone to the camera, and just use the phone as storage.

For example, I would like to shoot a few pictures for an ad or other internet application. Then I connect the phone to my camera, put the phone in my pocket, shoot the images and dslrcontroller exports the shot images automatically to the phone`s storage, dropbox etc.

Thanks for the great work!:good: Enjoy your vacation and relax! Looking forward to the future features, especially the save functions since this would be similar to bringing wifi etc connectivity to my Canon 7D. No need for PC`s/laptops when travelling, just an internet connection! :D

50D & Transformer TF101

Hey...awesome app! Having fun using my camera again. (50D & Transformer TF101)

A couple of questions (sorry if they have been covered before, but I haven't had a chance to read all 180 pages of the thread)...

1) I'm using a 50D, and the live view doesn't work as nicely as in the video. It only displays the preview when I tap the screen to focus. I'm assuming that this is a limitation of the camera (it is the model prior to the ones that can record video), but if I'm missing something let me know.

2) It's a little annoying that the app won't even start without a camera connected, and closes when you turn off the camera. Is there any way to change this behavior?

3) I don't have a quad core tablet, but I'm hoping the 1.0 version will speed up the decoding a bit, as there is quite a lag between taking a picture and being able to preview it.

4) The feature I would most like to see added is being able to send all (or just selected shots) to a network share or Dropbox from the program. This would allow me to send photos I like to Photoshop on my Thinkpad for editing. Let me know if this already exists and I'm missing it.

Keep up the great work!

New firmware for EOS 7 announced : compatible ?

A few weeks ago Canon announced new firmware for the 7d:

http://www.dpreview.com/news/2012/06/28/Canon-EOS-7D-firmware-v2-major-update

Will this be compatible with DSLR controller ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Crafty77:
Chaps I've just got my USB OTG cable and am linking to a 450D with remote release. Have tried both my SG3 and Nexus 7 (both stock, not rooted).

The app recognises the camera and shows aperture details etc, if I press the shutter the app says "capturing", the camera shows a shutter time (i.e. it has metered) but the shutter doesn't fire.

I am reasonably sure the lead from the otg cable to the camera is not the correct lead for the camera, maybe that is the issue ? any thoughts ?

I'll try my 7D shortly, see if I can get that to behave.

If I can get remote release working I'm going to buy the controller app as I think it will be really useful.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] TheHighlightGuy:
I used my 450D with my Nexus 7 (stock, not rooted) and it works just fine. I didn't use the camera's stock USB cable either, I used the one for my 1TB HDD. Try unplugging and re plugging or doing a reboot.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Crafty77:
Couldn't get the 450D to work, but I'm home now, tried the 7D and it works fine, so purchased the controller app which also works, the app is awesome! can't wait to go shooting again now!

Great looking app

I first saw this app mentioned in the letters page of PhotoPlus magazine and thought I'd give it a go. My primary use for this app will be to control my 1000D when it's attached to my telescope. So far I've only used it in daylight and have had to get another OTG cable as the one I originally had was cheap and nasty and may have had a dodgy connection internally (sometimes DSLR Controller would see my camera, sometimes it wouldn't). My new cable seems much more reliable. I'm still finding my way around the interface and the facility of most interest to me is Timelapse, as for astrophotography I need to set up a run of several exposures of 2,5 or even 10 minutes each. Perhaps the only criticism I have of the app at this point is that it's not immediately apparent which of the - - - - + + + + controls is for minutes, seconds, miliseconds etc.

A couple of minor feature requests to consider:

A setting to toggle between "beginner" (where the controls could be M- s- m- m+ s+ M+ for example) and "expert" mode (controls are as they are now.

A "Night vision" mode where the text colour is red. This will help any astronomers who use the app to retain their dark-adapted vision

Feature request:

+1

Remote control through 3rd party applications, a second Android device, or a PC

There's been some previous feedback for this, ie. using bluetooth call button mapped to shutter, how it gets done I guess I'm not too fussed

ie.

* remote android app that "pings" a TCP socket to fire

* bluetooth "call" button or other

* a flash light that triggers a light level

* some sort of script ;)

I would dearly love this feature, I've been doing some light painting with the tablet hooked up to the camera on the tripod,

would be really neat to remote fire it

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] TheHighlightGuy:
Yup!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] marlar:
I also vote for a kind of scripting function and/or letting another app control th DSLR app. My scenario is this:

As an amateur astronomer I was in Turkey in 2006 to observe and photograph the total solar eclipse. Shooting an eclipse is very much depending on what particular part of it you want to capture. Obviously the bright partial phase needs much faster shutter speeds and higher F-stops than the dark totality, but also photographing the bright inner corona needs different settings than the darker outer corona.

Now, the only problem is that a total solar eclipse lasts no more than 8 minutes and usually much less. And since it is one of the most fascinating natural phenomena you can ever watch, it is a "deadly sin" to see it through the camera lens. Instead you should enjoy it with all your senses.

Enters automation! In 2006 I brought my laptop and a eclipse script with predefined shooting values to control my DSLR and capture the various parts of the eclipse, letting me concentrate on the great show. Imagine if I could replace my heavy laptop with my 340 gram Galaxy Tab 7.7, doing all the same?

Well, with DSLR Controller I can - almost. We just need a scripting function which could be quite simple. Something with a text file consisting of time stamps, shutter speeds and aperture values. One line for each shot. Of course, if another app could control the DSLR app, I could even make a dedicated solar eclipse photography app!

Btw, the app works great with my Galaxy 7.7 and Canon 600D. Only issue I have observed is that the camera keeps shooting as soon as a press the shutter button if the shooting mode is set to continous. I would expect it to fire only as long as I keep pressing the button.

External flash

I have a problem. I am using External flash and while using DSLR Controller i cant trigger it. With Remote Release everything works fine, but with live view DSLR Controller it doesnt work. Does anybody has the same issue?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sgsI9003:
External flash will not fire when live view is ON even on camera lcd, so that is a limitation of your camera model.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Wextercz:
Thank you, and is it possible to switch Live View OFF and setup DSLR Controller only for viewing preview after taking picture?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sgsI9003:
Actually I am not a user of this app as yet but extensively use live view on camera with laptop so I know that flash will not fire when live view is on so I switch off just before taking the shot with flash. You can configure Cfn (custom function) to set a button for LV On/OFF

I am sure DSLR Controller would allow that though I am not a user but on laptop I do this daily the preview is shown after the shot is taken.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] silentshoot:
Are you using a Canon speedlight? What model is your DSLR?

It is Live View problem, already solved it. If i switch Live View in DSLR Controlelr off, it works. I am triggering flasher with remote flash trigger, so i dont think it is Flash problem.

Working like a charm..

SGS3 + 550D + Magic Lantern.

(A video guys ultimate gear)

Now i would like chain to add USB file transfer in app also, which i guess is possible. Since using OTG means transfer of files to and fro. You can also add something like select where to store captured image "connected device or cam memory" which may be a bit more difficult to apply but any thing is possible.

May be you have alredy though about implementing this :banghead:

Reason my phone has a total 128GB of storage and my Cam has a Class10 32GB card...

So if its possible to transfer files between the phone and the camera then just imagine 128+32gb of storage on the go.

That way if you are a HD video recording adict like me just imagine the hrs of video u have at ur disposal.

Hope this takes this app to a even andvance level than it is now :thumbup:
