Helicon Remote Reviews
Remote Photography
I use the Helicon Remote on a Nikon D850 to photograph Hummingbirds wirelessly and it works perfectly. You can set your camera to silent mode and not disturb the birds, the burst feature works well. I have not used the stacking feature as yet.
Great App… Wi-Fi connectivity issues
Great tool for focus stacking! Works well …. when working. Has difficulty staying connected, or even connecting, to Wi-Fi on my iOS devices. Fortunately it now can be teathered to the iOS devices, but would be nice to have the Wi-Fi working properly.
Does not support Sony with iPhone
So iOS app only supports WiFi, and Helicon Sony support does not include WiFi support. So bit of a bust for me.
No longer works
Updated the app and is now just a blank screen. Running iOS 15.2. May as well delete. Worthless.
Total garbage app
I bought this remote/focus stacker app a few years ago to use on my iPhone and a Nikon D7100. It has linked up to WiFi once or twice. So I haven’t used it since 2017. Now in 2021 I thought I would try again with my Nikon D500 and iPhone 8 running the latest iOS. And again, no connection at all. And to add insult to injury. Tried to contact the company from their web page. And guess what? Yep! That won’t work either. What a waste of $50.
Does not work MOST OF THE TIME
I’ve had the app “work” before, yes, and it’s great when it does. But note that you should absolutely never expect it to work, this way it’s a crazy surprise when it actually does, like you won the lottery while being struck by lightning AND enduring a shark attack in shallow water. Not the best odds, but you better get out of the water I guess, because IF that lightning strikes, look out (because when this stupid app does work it’s amazing)
Useless app
Completely unable to connect this app to my Canon T7i. I went through the connect process, the camera goes into live view, but the Helicon app says the camera isn’t connected and then drops the connection. The Helicon website offers no insight, except to say that the app supports T7i. I will remember this when I buy my stacking software
iOS 14 issue with Helicon Remote?
App worked as expected prior to latest iOS update. I use 2 mobile devices (one at a time depending upon project). One device accepts the registration but cannot connect to the camera. The second device says my registration is expired. Both worked fine prior to the iOS update.
