Re: T7I and Camera Connect - Can't get it to work

As long as I open the app on my phone first, then (when instructed) turn on the camera, it connects quickly and reliably. I successfully used it to take a selfie, and auto-focus worked perfectly. I did note that there was often a lag in the image on my phone; the image didn't always move as I did and I just had to wait a bit. Anyone else noticed that?

All-in-all, I'm quite happy with it. It makes it easy for the photographer to be in the photo, whether in a group or alone. I set a two-second delay so I had time to look up after pressing the "shutter" button on the phone and that worked well.
