Helicon Soft Forum

Are there any step by step tutorials on how to use Helicon Remote? I tried defining a start and end point but when it finishes, I only get one slice no matter how many pictures I tell it to take.

Please use Helicon Remote tutorial:

I read all that but was looking for something that indicated what camera settings to use on the D5000.

There are no special settings for D5000. Several users reported that D5000 is shown on the list but does not properly function. We are looking into this now.

Do I have to remove my camera's memorycard when I connect with Helicon Remote ?

Some Nikon cameras work much slower if memorycard is inserted. You can try the difference with your camera.

Why can't I use this app in sync with studio lights? Or can I (canon 450D)?

With 450D you can't unless you set the lens manual focus mode. Then you can go to File->Preferences->Shooting and set "Disable live view during shooting" to "Yes", it should make flash work.
