Remote Camera Control

Remote Camera Control allows the camera settings from a live event to be adjusted from the Web App on another device! Never worry about the camera settings at a drop-off event again; the power to adjust settings while at another event, different location, or from the comfort of your home is now within your hands.

With the Remote Camera Control feature, camera settings will now be saved per event. This allows for more precise control and adjustment.
