Helicon Remote #1
Today I have tried this application with my Nikon and a USB OTG and I have to say that is quite interesting specially if you don't have a wireless/IR remote control for your reflex.

I have done few shots on auto and works perfectly. Obv also in manual works.

The apps is free and there are a lot of similar, anyway is available here: Click

Few screenshot:

Aw: Helicon Remote #2
So basically, do you connect the camera to the PC and then somehow control it via an app through the pc?

Re: Helicon Remote #3
No, I was buying on amazon the IR remote but with USB OTG I can do the same things and much more.
Anyway if you camera has the WiFi you don't need OTG cable

You connect the camera to your tablet/smartphone.

Re: Helicon Remote #5
Or even for Windows, something like Digicamcontrol that is free. But for your Canon there are a lot of apps.
