Seriously flawed. To connect to the camera using Bluetooth, you have to be able to connect to a wi-fi network? How is that helpful in most situations that I would want to use my smartphone to take a photo? Even then, it works sometimes...connect, take a shot, reconnect...repeat. when it works, it's awesome, but I'm afraid the connection issues will make me miss shots. Going with a simple remote instead.

I forgo the need of a computer and card reader because I can send photos directly to my phone and edit .jpg images with processing software apps. Just a little tricky to set up in the beginning but once you are able to connect (which REQUIRES your phone's location setting to be ON), you are viewing, selecting, and downloading pictures to your phone from your phone as it is hooked up to the camera, or from the camera itself. You cannot send raw format for some reason. No information is given regarding this massive inconvenience.

It's not without its flaws, but this app is really neat for what it does. Pros: Connects to camera from your phone or table to review and/or download photos that you've taken before you dump them to your computer. Connects for remote control of your camera for tripod use. You can change (depending on camera mode) ISO, White Balance, Shutter Speed, Aperature, lighting type, then take pictures remotely, without touching your camera Cons: Isn't terribly intuitive to connect to the camera from your phone. There should be a tutorial for each camera type on how you do that. The interface isn't terribly intuitive once you get it open, either. Changing multiple settings can mean backing out of "remote shooting" mode and going back in to get to other settings. Because it keeps your sensor open and continues to send images to the phone while you're using it as a remote, it burns through the camera's battery *very* quickly. I'm somewhere between a 3 and a 4 on the app, but when I need it, I'm glad that it's there. I'd really love for some clever 3rd party developer to create a better version of this app. I'd be all over that.
