Who Uses DSLR Remote Pro?
Product photographers
use the grid overlay option for accurate alignment and composition of
product shots. The ability to control shutter speed, aperture, ISO etc.
from the PC and to take fast, large preview shots saves valuable time
when setting up a shot. The flashing highlight display and histogram
display (intensity, red, green and blue channels) give accurate exposure
feedback.
New! Color managed previews for more
accurate display of colors for critical applications.
New! Auto bracketing ready for blending
exposures to improve shots with high dynamic range without requiring
sophisticated lighting setups.
Portrait and event
photographers take pictures using the
camera as normal and download them automatically to a PC where an
assistant can show them to customers, take reprint orders or print them
on the spot. Comments can be added before or after taking a shot to help
identify the subject later.
New! The comment is stored in the photo and
can be used for the image filename.
