Am I missing something? From what I see, it requires the hardware piece to work. Have you've gotten that one already, John, or was it just a sarcastic comment from you aimed at apps?


While this unit looks interesting, it seems rather specialized, - in the
sense of the situations where you'd be using it. (I don't mean that it's bad, it's just that you should be in a specific genre to need it.) That's before you enable the control from the smartphone. But as a remote trigger, which would a much more used functionality, - isn't it a bit too expensive?

BTW, the subject line is a bit confusing, in the sense that in the smartphone-controlled triggering, there is not much of the "high-speed" functionality involved, is there? I.e. high-speed triggering is "orthogonal" to controlling from a smartphone.


Also, it seems to have gotten some mixed reviews on B&H:

and on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/MIOPS-Professional-High-Speed-Smartphone-Compatibility/product-reviews/B0143ENX1Q/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_hist_1?ie=UTF8&filterByStar=one_star&reviewerType=all_reviews#reviews-filter-bar
(It looks like QC is not the best.)


As for Amazon, - it placed a label "Amazon's Choice" for "miops":
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0143ENSSO/?th=1
Given that it is the only "miops" (which is actually not a category but a brand name). So, Amazon wisely chose the only one product in the "category". :-) As my grandpa used to say: "The first guy in the village that has only one house."

Might be fun if I can ever figure out how to install an app on my iPhone. The App Store keeps telling me I have the wrong username & password.
