CamRanger

A few weeks ago I ordered a CamRanger! It plugs into my Nikon D7000 and lets me take photos with it from my iPad/iPhone from up to 45m away!

In the box:

• CamRanger
• Case
• Camera connecter cable
• Charging cable
• Wall plug for charging
• Battery
• Network cable
• Instructions

So.. straight up, the wall plug is American and seeing as the CamRanger only works with iOS devices anyway and they all come with their own usb wall plug? Kinda redundant and a waste of shipping. Especially for those of us not in America.

Secondly, the CamRanger label is a sticker and the serial number sticker on the back was dirty around the edges which was disappointing for $300 plus $40 shipping. Picky, I know, but it dulled the excitement for me and made it look a bit cheap. Anyway, onto the photos!

The interface. Forgive the infinte mirror effect. I took the photo with my iPad while controlling it from my iPad. The app is free in the Apple store.

And again just for fun.

The focusing took a bit to suss.

But I figured it out with some help. (It was a hot day and I'd just woken up and even that can't excuse the state of my hair.)

The camera has to operate in Live Mode to show the image on the iPad which is kinda the whole point (besides changing settings on the fly) because otherwise my $25 remote would work just as well but Live Mode means there's a significant delay between hitting Capture and the photo being taken which means I can do things like this:

Look, no hands!

My verdict: fun, but I'm still waiting for an opportunity for it to prove it's worth.

Day 13

So this 365 thing.. My idea? Ha.. It's not that it's going badly. It's going too well! Every day I have too many photos to choose from! Here's a few that didn't make the cut just from yesterday. Go here or here to see the ones that did and check back later for today's photos :)

Project 365(s)

Happy New Year!

Photo-A-Day prompts got too messy so this year I've decided to go with Project 365 - one photo a day, every day of the year. Then I figured because most of those would be of Bailey I should do one for him and one for my non-Bailey photos! So..
