Informatie (ENG)

At the search, how to emulate my Nikon IR remote control, I found following site. bigMike. A first sketch was written fast and with best results. A friend of mine would like use the same easy system to control his Canon. I found the Canon timing and a lot of others at a thread here. Not just Canon, also Minolta, Sony, Olympus and Pentax. I decide to write a Arduino library where all timings are included. Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Olympus and Sony cameras are working very well. The other cameras have to be checked. It would be nice if you could do that and give me a feedback. Some cameras do have the possibility to control a lot of more then just the shutter. For example zoom and other things. I would like to implement these features later if it is clear that the timings are working well.
Please don’t forget to chose a mode of your camera where it will receive IR commands!

Commands

VOID SHUTTERNOW()
The camera will shot directly a picture. It will work with every camera.

VOID SHUTTERDELAYED()
The camera will wait after transmission for round about two seconds. This is only supported for Canon, Sony and Minolta cameras.

INT ZOOMIN(), INT ZOOMOUT() (OLYMPUS ONLY)
zooming

INT TOGGLEVIDEO() (SONY ONLY)
start/stop video

INT TOGGLEFOCUS() (PENTAX ONLY)
toggle Focus
