The latest photo gadget to launch on Kickstarter promises to give Sony owners a better way to control their cameras: from their smartphones.
Arsenal is a hardware device that sits atop your camera. It will give photographers full control over their DSLR and Mirrorless cameras from up to 100 feet away.
The app includes built-in modes for advanced techniques like photo stacking and timelapse. It will write the merged RAW file directly to the camera’s SD card.
Arsenal also offers manual controls, including live preview, full-resolution photo review, and social media sharing.
But the biggest innovation comes in the form of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms that compare your scene against thousands of other photos in Arsenal’s “memory” to recommend optimal settings in any conditions.
Arsenal will support the following Sony models will be fully supported at launch: A7, A7S, A7R, A7ii, A7Sii, A7Rii, a3000,a5000,a5100,a6000,a6300, and a6500
