Overview

Shutter is a widget for the Maemo desktop which allows your N900 to send a single IR command. It is configured to work as an IR remote control for either Canon, Nikon or Olympus DSLR cameras.


Help

If the widget doesn't show up after adding it, please reboot your phone. You can check the functionality by looking at the IR port ofthe N900 through another digicam (while pressing the shutter widget).


Screenshot

Bugs

Use this paragraph to report possible bugs:

  • Press the widget, get an error, "Shutter: IRSend failed: 1". Not very informative. (UPDATE: Reboot fixed it) --qole 06:59, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
  • [1.0.0-2] Tried with Canon EOS 450D (Rebel XSi), does not work for me. "Official" remote (Canon RC-5) works. --juise- 11 March 2010
  • [1.0.0-2] In desktop edit mode, config and remove buttons stack onto each other and the widget, making it difficult to manage with a thumb. --juise- 11 March 2010
  • It does not work on my Canon EOS 500D. Camera has been selected to shot with remote control. Software has been set for camera canon. After pressing the widjet, message says: "Shutter: IRSend took 0 seconds (Canon RC1....)". Nothing happens in the camera. --Davide- 11 March 2010
