App Additions with the PT Hub and Tripod Head
When the CamRanger app is started with the PT Hub and MP-360 connected, a tripod button
will appear next to the other tab buttons.
A directional pad is displayed on the tripod tab. Press and hold to move the tripod head in the
desired direction. Double tapping will continue to move the tripod head in that direction until
the directional pad is tapped again. The slider below the directional pad controls the pan/tilt
speed of the tripod head. The approximate MP-360 battery capacity is shown at the top left.
The panorama button at the bottom left expands the tripod tab to display the controls for
configuring an automated panorama.
To perform a panorama, a calibration must first be performed. To calibrate, press the
“Calibrate” button and follow the steps. The calibration is valid for four hours or until the
session is restarted or the tripod head speed is adjusted.
After calibrating, the number of shots, total number of degrees, and panorama direction can
be specified before pressing “Start” to begin the process.
Camera Setup
Canon
•
Exposure Simulation: Camera setting that controls if the live view exposure should
match the camera’s exposure settings, or always show a reasonably exposed image.
Typically a photographer would want exposure simulation o
ff
when the ambient light
doesn’t match the amount of light during capture, such as when using strobes or
flashes.
•
Image Playback Time: Camera setting that specifies how long an image should be
shown on the camera’s rear LCD. A long playback time can impact certain functions,
most notably it can slow down focus stacking.
•
In-Camera WiFi: In-camera WiFi and all similar settings must be turned OFF.
•
Image Transfer/FTP: Any image transfer and FTP transfer settings must be turned OFF.
