A seamless means for wirelessly controlling your camera from a mobile device or computer, the Case Air Wireless Tethering System from Tether Tools is a compact device affording remote control and monitoring capabilities. The Case Air attaches to your camera via USB connection, and can be mounted via its hot shoe, and then produces an 802.11b/g/n ad-hoc Wi-Fi network for connecting to the camera via the Case Remote app for iOS or Android. A wireless range of approximately 150' is well-suited to a variety of on-location shooting applications, and within the app you are afforded a live view image along with tap-to-focus control, and pinch-to-zoom within the live view image for more critical focusing. Within the app you can also adjust exposure settings, including aperture, shutter speed, and ISO, as well as access creative shooting controls, such as exposure bracketing, bulb timer, focus stacking, HDR, and time-lapse shooting modes. The Case Air also lets you wirelessly share imagery from your camera to your mobile device for instant sharing on social media.
