hi all

i've been using snap bridge to control my d850, but whenever i switch to another app (eg, respond to text) the app disconnects, then has to reconnect--potentially missing a shot.

using android OS samsung galaxy 22S ultra

is there a way to prevent the disconnection or a better app which does not have this problem?

or hardware solution, IR remote, wire?

 

thanks

The most reliable is a wired remote, either an MC-30A or MC-36A, depending on if you want an intervalometer as well as the remote. I prefer the MC-30A and using the built-in intervalometer in the body...

 

Another good solution is a pair of Pocketwizards with the appropriate cable with the 10-pin connector.
