Helicon Tech support has advised that WiFi still does not work with HR and this camera.

Tried again. HR version is 3.9.7 (Android) device is Samsung Tab S. Camera is Nikon D850 FW 1.10. HR did work for many months wired to camera. Last such use was Feb 24. Several attempts to use it since have failed. Connects to device but after one task completed (ie Preview or focus), the software l...

Tried HR again... I can get as far as Camera detected successfully, but with msg to reset camera settings and try again. Do so and get the same, endlessly. Camera settings always come back the same, incl IP address when detected by the tablet. Camera D850 FW 1.10, Tablet is Samsung Tab S. Noted &quo...

Thanks Catherine.

I tried last night, could not get the Bluetooth/WiFi transfer to work with Snapbridge.

Could not see how to set it up using the HR instructions but was rushed. Will try again.

Samsung Tab S is my device.

This update (released this week) implements WiFi on this camera.

Has anyone tried it with HR yet?

Thanks

Richard.

Hmmm strange.

Tried new cable again and old one (known to work with this camera). No go.

Plugged D3x in (different cable type), worked. Plugged D850 in... now it seems to work.

Complete failure with this version: (Using Samsung Tab S -SM-T805W) Can only do one action (autofocus or preview or Take single image), then it locks up completely. Focus works, preview appears to work (progress bar moves to end but "stop shooting" is still displayed) no image displayed on...

Using HR (current android version), there is an excessive delay (several seconds) between shots. I cannot find a reference to this in the manual, or in the app settings. MUP is not set on the camera (D850). The '"Shutter Delay" setting is not set. Is it possible to reduce this (to be simil...

This seems to have disappeared. I found it useful for doing a quick check on results (changing parameters etc.) rather than processing the full size images.

Stas,

OK, looks like Google did not push 3.9.1 down to me. I was using 3.9.0.

I forced it and it now seems to work.

Thanks.

Auto-focus used to work, but no longer does. AF works in Liveview on camera (both back-button and shutter 1/2 press) Focus by arrows still works but tap screen auto-focus no longer does (focus motor does not operate on tap-screen).

Stas,

The closing ] was replaced by another char, IIRC it was a question mark (?).

Simplest solution is to check all chars are valid and properly enclosed by [...]. (AKA "range check"). This would cover misspelling as well as missing delimiters.

Richard

Stas, problem solved.

The issue was not the path name... it was a bad file name definition in the settings.

The error msg is inadequate, it should state what the problem is, not "check enough storage avail, permissions etc." (paraphrased)..
