Changelog / Wish List

Current wish list for next versions:

- trigger the shutter by "light" via the built-in proximity sensor

- optional GUI rotation by 180° for smartphones with audio connector at "wrong" side

- persistant storage of timer and HDR parameters, respectivelly, as "profiles"

- "mirror lock-up" using a camera specific shutter delay ("2s", "3s" or the like)

- a more obvious distinction between "button pressed" and "button not pressed"

- option for cable S "S button without focus signal" to prevent the camera from focusing again on shutter release (after pre-focusing with the F button)

- motion trigger via the built in acceleration sensors

- motion trigger via live view of the camera

- GPS trigger (absolute und difference)

- option to write a GPS protocol with geo data for each picture taken

- continue running Timer or HDR sequence in the background (e.g. when the display is switched off)

- test option for an IR dongle

- bulb ramping in Timer mode

The sequence indicates in no way the significance of the subject. They will be addressed "as occasion arises".
