Have installed 5.2 and it works well, but for portability, it would be fantastic if you could covert this program to be an app on WP7. What are the chances???

Thank you for this great work patrick.
I am using it with D3100, I know that you didn’t list it as a compatible camera but I read alot of comments from users who do use it.

I counter an error when i open the program “line 653″
I can use the shutter Release problem, but i can see any previews!

[...] macht NKRemote gegenüber CameraControl 5.0 natürlich einen besseren Eindruck. Dafür ist letzteres kostenlos erhältlich und hat sogar noch [...]

So I have a D300 and I would like to still view a preview on the back of the camera. The “push to external viewer” button doesn’t seem to work.

Thanks all for your feedback and attention to this. I’ve been away with another project so haven’t responded. Good thing is goint to the PTP Mode solved the issue, at least well enough for me to use it for my intended purpose. Raymond how come there is no button to release the shutter from the PC in this revision?
Thanks again.

Muchas gracias por la pronta respuesta.

Ayer saque muchas fotos que luego las compile con Startrails y quedo bastante bien. Estoy aprendiendo.

Luis, thanks for taking the time to struggle with the evil English language.

You want to rapidly take 50 photographs. Each image to be of 30 second exposure.

For this case I would set Frequency=1, Shots each time=30, Total shots to take=30, Delay before starting=0

I have not tested this though. Perhaps you may test it first with a smaller number such as 3 or 5.

Hello:
In the first place excuses by the evil handling of the language.
Secondly, congratulations, excellent program!
And thirdly the question:
¿What is the configuration in
Frequency (seconds)
Shots each time
Total shots to take
Delay before starting
in order to realise 50 photographies of 30 seconds of Exposure with the smaller possible time it enters taking and it takes?
Greetings and Thanks.
Nikon D3000, WinXp

I am using a Nikon D80 on Windows 7 64bit. It is really odd. It goes through all the motions and I see it changing the camera settings and the shutter triggers, but nothing saves anywhere, not on the camera or in the directory I specify in the script.
