Quoting Stan Halpin <[email protected]>:

The default/home screen shows Canon. You need to make a menu choice on camera brand to see Pentax models and the requisite connector cable.


Yeah, but their camera selection system is borked. For example, if you select Pentax Q, you don't see a message telling you that the camera isn't supported (it isn't - it doesn't have a wired remote port), you still see the default screen with a list of cables.

Even more confusing, if you'd previously checked the Pentax K-5 (say), which is supported, and then checked Pentax Q, the screen remains unchanged, telling you that the Q is supported and can use the same cable as the K-5.

All a bit strange but it doesn't get away from the fact that Triggertrap looks very useful.



Cheers

G'day all

Triggertrap is a Smartphone app that, combined with a dongle that
connects your phone to the remote port of your camera, turns your
phone into a sophisticated intervalometer.  It looks as if it would be
useful for things like star trails.

Anyone tried it?

Details here:

Are any Pentax cameras actually supported?

I see they have a dongle that fits Canon "along with a load of other cameras that accept a 2.5mm socket", but I'm leery that they don't specifically mention Pentax.

Moot point for me, since I'm still using a dumb phone & already have a "sophisticated intervalometer" that I bought just before making my trip out west in January.
