Wireless DSLR control new
      #3425063 - 11/02/09 07:47 AM

Hi all,

I'm a new to this forum and for starters I'd like to say hello to all you guys.

Second, I own an EQ6 mount. For now I have used it with the normal Eqmod software. Recently I've seen some mods that you can make in order to control everything through wireless/bluetooth. The problem is that this mod has no point in doing if I cannot control my camera from Maxim DL also through wireless.

The question now is: have you done or come across something like this?

Andrei

Well it depends on your camera , most of the newer Canons can be controlled through a single USB cable and the older through a shoestring astronomy cable in the remote plug.
