OnOne Software has just released an update for its excellent DSLR Camera Remote app that we've written about before. The updated version 1.2 of server software for the app -- which lets you use your iPhone or iPod Touch as a wireless cable release for DSLRs -- adds support for the Nikon D300s and fixes a number of issues including (according to onOne blogger and VP of marketing, Mike Wong):

  • Fixed an issue with the Canon Rebel T1i preventing its use on Windows
  • Fixed an issue with Nikon D300 when used in LiveView and Burst mode at the same time
  • Improved permissions detection and warning on Mac OS X
  • Fixed an error on Mac OS X when an old version of Nikon Camera Control is installed
  • Fixed an error when attempting to autofocus in LiveView when the camera is set to manual focus

Unfortunately there's still no support for the new Canon 7D, because Canon hasn't yet released a 7D SDK to developers.

Because all the changes have been made to the server side software (which you download and run on your computer), there's no need to update your iPhone app -- and no iTunes App Store approval process to wait on.
