Camera Control Pro

The name Camera Control Pro does not tell you much, except that it's an application for controlling some type of camera. Its actual name should probably include the name Nikon and DSLR, since this program was designed to work as a sort of auxiliary device for a number of Nikon digital SLR products.

This application supports USB connection as well as wireless, of course, if your camera has the extra module needed for this type of connection. In terms of what can be done using this program, the answer would be just about anything. First of all, make sure the app recognizes your Nikon DSLR. A message should be displayed, informing you of a successful connection.

As expected, the program acts as a remote for your camera most of the time. As a result, you can assign different key combinations for shooting pictures, adjusting autofocus, and recording videos. Here, reverse indicators can be adjusted for an optimal result. One can also sync the date and time between any connected Nikon DSLR and the PC it's been attached to.

Two other tabs deal with color management and live view settings. Managing colors will ultimately require the user to import a default RGB color space file. The program can then be instructed to use this file instead of its presets. The live view tab gives some options for this feature, dealing with camera monitoring and its physical designated button on the product.

Camera Control Pro can definitely help in a professional studio by making a Nikon DSLR camera easier to work with by offering access to features and options in a straightforward way. As long as your camera is compatible with this program, you've got yourself an ally in whatever photo project might be under your supervision.
