Asus Transformer + D90 Some really great work in progress this, great features and tools without being bogged down and confusing. Easy to setup (literally plug the camera in and its good to go) and easy to use. Only thing I'm missing right now is the ability to shoot in RAW, seems I can only select JPG options.

So easy, so powerful Working with this app on a Transformer Prime with Canon 50D. Such a no brainer, just plug in the camera and you're up and running. Focus stacking and remote control are excellent. Only had one crash, and it had to do with unplugging the camera and plugging it back in. The app would freeze with a notice about having crashed, but you couldn't dismiss the dialog until the camera was unplugged again. Then it would crash for "real", close, then I could plug the camera back in and it worked ok. Something relatively minor that I guess needs to be worked out. Otherwise so far, so good. Definitely recommend this app if you want mobile, powerful remote control, especially for focus stacking.

Great App! This app works very well on my ASUS Eee Pad Slider (Honeycomb). I love it! This will be a great, useful app, especially for macro shots. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to use the app, but now that understand the A/B buttons and all, it is simple to use. Thanks for a good app, developers! It is so handy to have this on my tablet, especially when doing outdoor photos in the field, especially when travelling. UPDATE: The app no longer comes up as an option when I plug my camera in and turn it on, unlike other camera apps. It works fine when manually opened, but I miss the handy instant selection option. This app is far better than DSLR Remote for focus bracketing, but I prefer DSLR Remote for single photos and HDR/exposure bracketing. I bought the license for this app for the ability to shoot in RAW; it is definitely worth it!

D7000 + Asus Transformer Really good remote, the only question I have is there a way to get the shots to save to the camera, this would allow for faster shooting for time lapse ? Other wise this is the best Nikon remote software on Android!

Asus Transformer & D300 Sometimes it hangs but not too often since latest upgrade. Works well with my Transformer (with USB from Keyboard dock) and D300. Used it for focusing on close up shots. Quite convenient and damned good for a beta.

Work fine on Asus Transformer 4.0.3 Work fine. A button INSIDE the app to see the photos in folder will be good in the final app. Good work.
