I guess that most of you already heard about transforming your iPhone into a remote controler for DSLR. So here is the application to do the same with any android phone.
This can work with any Nikon DSLR using IR for remote control.
To use this application you need to have a IR dongle for your phone. It's easy to create some tutorial : here or here
I developed it for my HTC Desire
This application allows to do simple shot, long exposure shot (using the bulb mode) and makes it easier to calculate the time to have a correct exposition in bulb mode.
So the first screen is to release the trigger a single time, using the exposition parameters of the camera. Easy press the "shoot" button :
The second sreen allows the long exposure using the bulb mode. The principle is simple : a signal is sent to open the shutter and a second signal after the choosen time to close it :
The third screen is used to calculate the correct exposure time in the bulb mode. To do so enter the paramteres given by your camera, using the biggest diaphragme aperture and the highest iso and select the aperture and iso you want to use for your final picture and press calculate.
Finaly the last screen is giving some small explanation on how to use but will probably change to some new feature (when I find some interesting one)...
If you are in Europe this might not work. Simply because of the sound limitation of your phone. To remove this limitation there are some applications on the market...
Any comment or recommendation considering this application is always welcome. And if you have any idea of some more features that could be usefull share it and I will see what I can do...
You can find the .apk here
