Remote photography and recording

With the app, you can easily capture images remotely. Using the user-friendly Bluetooth remote control function, you can activate your camera from a distance. Shooting remotely opens up a whole new world of creative possibilities for both photos and videos Think, for example, of photographing shy animals, working with long exposures, or capturing things like selfies and vlogging. You can view your camera’s live view on your device and also adjust a wide range of camera settings.

Location information

Geotagging your shots can be very useful when inventorying and organizing all your images. If your camera does not have built-in GPS, the app uses your phone’s location data and automatically adds location information to your photos. Thanks to the app and your phone’s GPS function, you can still tag all your images with a location and map out your journey. During long-distance holidays, you can easily adjust your camera’s clock when traveling across different time zones.
