Camera Connected but no functions or Live View?

The weirdest thing just happened. I have been using helicon remote/focus for over 2 years now and have had my issues with troubleshooting different things. I use to have this issue where all of a sudden the focusing steps (in-camera focusing steps on canon) would make huge leaps. Ex. I would set my ...

Re: Canon R5 Flash Not triggering

Thank you!

I believe the Preference -> Shooting -> Enable live View When Shooting to "No" is what solved it. Appreciate the tip, I didn't know where to find this option at first!

Canon R5 Flash Not triggering

I downloaded the beta and tried to run my first stack but noticed my strobe would only trigger on the first 2-3 images of the stack, otherwise no flash goes on after.

Issue with steps + Shutter speed?

I've been having a really weird issue lately. I've used the helicon remote with my canon 5dsr and 100 mm in the past perfectly fine. But lately, as soon as I start to increase my shutter speed 1/40+ it just randomly decides to take much larger steps then I originally set. Sometimes when I disconnect...

Helps to improving stack

Hey guys, I've been working on improving my stacked shots for over a year now. And while I believe I have made significant improvements considering all the variables (camera, rail, subject, lighting and software) there is still one big hold up. In some of my stacks, there seems to be blurring when t...
