Canon, you need to step up and give this app REAL remote shooting abilities!

Surprised and dismayed at how limited the remote shooting is!

It can zoom and snap a photo, but thats really about it! Theres no exposure control, no interval shooting, and no video capture!

What adds to user consternation is that Canon nowhere describes what can and cant be done.

Surprisingly, the old tethered Remote Capture was leaps and bounds ahead of this app. While it, too, couldnt do video, it had the full panoply of controls-- change modes, set aperture, set shutter speed, change exposure, set white balance, zoom, choose macro focus, change metering and focusing area, etc.

This is a pale copy of that program and its disappointing. It fails to match the quality of Canons cameras.

For those interested in remote shooting, such as for fashion, wild life, or astronomy, the app is a big fail. I would urge Canon to revamp and upgrade this app greatly. Modern cameras deserve modern apps. Other companies, such as Panasonic, do a much better job in the app world.
