Photographing large groups wirelessly
1

This might be nothing new to some of you. However, last week I tried using the wireless remote trigger using the Fuji App to photograph a large group. To my delight I got great results. I mounted the Fujifilm XT-2 fitted with 18-55mm f2.8 lens on a Portaflash stand using MeFoto ball-head (love it). I was able to raise the camera about 3m. I then triggered the camera using my iPhone with the help of Fuji's camera Remote App. The camera/lens combination is light enough to remain stable.

Here are the result:

Not perfect due to lack of space but better than any other option. This might not be earth shattering for you but for me it was a great and simple solution to photographing large groups.
