ShutterSnitch 2 Adds Automation, Metadata And Speed. Lots Of Speed

ShutterSnitch, the iPad app that lets you lamp photographs right away from your camera to your iPad, has been

First – what ShutterSnitch won't do: unless you jailbreak your iPad to let it emanate its own ad-hoc Wi-Fi network, ShutterSnitch requires possibly a router or a P.C. to emanate that network. If you have a battery-powered Mi-Fi, that will work only fine.

So, what's new? Rob Galbraith, photographer, blogger and gear-head, has been contrast v2.0 for a few time, and has a minute cheap on every new aspect. The initial large changes are speed and stability: instead of crashing, you can now siphon large files in to the app, as swift as you like, and it will keep on going. Your collections may be a lot bigger, too: ShutterSnitch will let you put thousands of images together without bogging down.

But you're here is to new gimmicks, right? Now you can suffer full-resolution zooms and encouragement for RAW files (although recollect this functions over Wi-Fi, so those large files will be slow to transfer). There is encouragement for elementary metadata, inclusive geotagging (this grabs the place from your iPad and embeds it in to the photo.)

But most appropriate of all are Actions. You can automate what happens to the photos when they arrive, adding metadata, saving a duplicate to the photo-roll and even exporting, sending photos to Flickr, Facebook or an FTP server. And there are lots of other tweaks, too, inclusive slideshows and external-display support.

To use ShutterSnitch, you'll moreover need a way to send the photos. The easiest way is with an Eye-Fi SD-card, that turns any camera in to a wireless photo-transmitter. If you have a receiver for your SLR, one of Canon or Nikon's units, for example, those work too.

ShutterSnitch 2 is in the App Store consent tubes right now, and should strike any day soon. The refurbish will be giveaway for ShutterSnitch 1.x owners, and $8 to purchase new. The cost will go up to $20 early in the new year.
