Am I the only one or do any of you have the same problems using canon's remote live shooting mode using their camera connect app on ipad. It is slow and prone to crashing or freezing.
I finally figured out that you can do a USB connection to your camera using the camera connect but that too is horrible! Get 10 minutes of good use and then freezes. Quick restart of the app fixes it but why can't it be smooth. Why does it have to be a phone or ipad?
Anyway I'm reaching out to Canon and I got to let them know what would be a nice product to have.
An automated tripod head with pan tilt. Integrated into a physical remote controller that features a 6 inch screen. The whole thing integrated into the camera where the displays touch screen can be used to change any setting you want on the camera, touch to focus, record etc. Pan and tilt to any position you want. I want a physical analog style remote, where it's not just a button but how far you push a stick making the head move slow and smooth vs fast.
If Canon doesn't make this fully integrated remote solution then it's going to lose out to DJI. I just want to put my pan tilt head on my tripod with my camera on it and everything controlled by a single remote with a screen. No more relying on apps that are too annoying to connect and control. I'll put the setup in the field and go sit in the shade away from the camera and control everything from where I'm sitting.
My current solution is the PT5000 pan tilt head I found on amazon, but I'm willing to pay extra to be able to just have a fully integrated system.
Please make it happen soon.
