Triggertrap Press Release

Triggertrap announce support for triggering your camera from Apple Watch

Today, Triggertrap unveil the latest update to camera-triggering app Triggertrap Mobile, introducing support for triggering a DSLR camera from an Apple Watch for the first time ever.

The free update enables photographers to activate five of the most popular Triggertrap modes from Apple Watch: including the simple cable release mode, long exposure modes, and timelapse modes.

The Apple Watch app also features a customisable trigger delay. This lets the photographer set a delay of up to 10 seconds, which makes it perfect for self-portraits or solo light painting, as it gives users plenty of time to get in place.

Triggertrap have also rolled out an update to their first “pro” app - Triggertrap Timelapse Pro. This update brings Apple Watch triggering to the modular timelapse app.

Triggertrap Timelapse Pro makes use of the Apple Watch's unique Glance function to enable users to check on the progress of a timelapse without disturbing their camera.

Both updates are available to download on the iOS app store now at http://tri.gg/ttm and http://tri.gg/tlp. Triggertrap have also put together a short video showing the new features, you can find the video at http://tri.gg/watch
