Take photos/video when in area

Imagine the following scenario: Camera is on a tripod at the bottom of an interesting segment of a ski slope. Now you would need a camera man who starts and stops recording whenever I am in view. instead my phone broadcasts its GPS position and whenever I enter a predefined area, the camera starts r...

Re: GPS and USB issues

ad 1) How often is the GPS position sent to the unleashed? I would set it to a low time value, e.g. every second. Not sure what the impact is as well, so why would somebody set that to 300s ever? The D810 has a menu screen where you can see the current GPS locations and in one of the info screen, a ...

Re: Unleashed app as Snapbridge replacement

Mixed feelings. On the one hand there is no doubt that the unleashed plug has its upsides, like leaving the camera for a couple of hours without app connectivity. On the other hand, your app so much better than Snapbridge, would love to use that all the time. No problem as long as the plug is connec...

Re: Z6 keeps waking up

I concur with your statements and suggestions. Now I was writing about a few more thoughts but at the end deleted the entire post. Because actually, the best behavior would be to prevent the camera to go into metering-off while the unleashed is communicating. Can this be done? Btw, the proper term i...

Re: Z6 keeps waking up

I have created a video to clear matters up. https://photos.app.goo.gl/VRH8LfMRRbP8CCyi9 At 0:07 I turn on the camera 0:18 I click on the Mode button because the unleashed does not connect with the camera by itself although it is connected. 0:47 the camera display dims a bit 0:50 turns off completely...

Re: Z6 keeps waking up

Turn on camera and app. Both are running and in foreground. After 30 seconds the camera will turn off the metering - you can hear the camera curtain - and two seconds later the camera does wakeup again. Constantly off - on - off - on in that 30 second cycle. If you do something in the app it remains...

Unleashed app as Snapbridge replacement

From a pure technical point of view, I would like to ask "What do we need the unleashed dongle for"? The only reasons I can see are provide the last GPS position in case none is available at this very moment To allow timelapse without the smartphone being nearby. The smartphone tells the dongle the ...

Z6 keeps waking up [solved]

The normal behavior is that you are in the Photo screen, camera is turned on and after a few seconds the apps shows the buttons active. Now you wait for a few seconds, camera turns off its metering and stays in this power saving mode. With the Z6 the dongle wakes up the camera immediately after and ...

Z6 Menu names do not match [solved]

In the Video screen the app says "Change g4 to Record Movies". The setting g4 is a different one in the Z6. In the Photo screen, when the DISP switch is set to Video, the app says "CSM g4 is set to Record Movies". That text is wrong and does not make sense in case of the Z6. Should be rather somethi...

Re: Preview downloads jpeg and raws

Thanks Peter, for taking the lead. I went so far as validate the raw&backup causes preview to show two images.
@Andy: I wonder if you should consider the timestamp of the files. In bursts with 12 pictures per seconds you might not want to download all either? Don't know.
