Update to Supported Canon DSLRs
June 12, 2009 by Mike Wong • 18 Comments
Senior product manager Dan Harlacher sent me an update to the list of supported Canon DSLRs with our DSLR Camera Remote app. This is the official list as of June 12, 2009 and is broken out by type of connection.
Firewire Connection
- 1D Mark II
- 1Ds Mark II [ ((FYI, there is a bug in the 1Ds Mark II firmware that won't allow remote functions if the "quiet shutter" personal setting is turned on. If you're having problems, disable the quiet shutter and you should be good to go)) ]
- 1D Mark II N
USB Connection
Your camera must be set to PC Connection and your Firmware must be up-to-date
- Rebel XT/350D/Kiss Digital N
- 20D
- 5D
USB Connection
Your camera must be set to Print/PC (PTP) as the communication mode
- Rebel XTi/400D/Kiss Digital X
- Rebel Xsi*/450D*/Kiss X2*
- Rebel XS*/1000D*/Kiss F*
- 30D
- 40D*
- 50D*
- 5D Mark II*
- 1D Mark III*
- 1Ds Mark III*
Cameras listed with an asterisk ( * ) support LiveView

It appears that the “quiet shutter” bug in the 1Ds (list above) also applies to the 40d. Disabling “silent shooting” in the Live View settings resolved my connection issues.
Will the 500D / Kiss X3 be supported anytime soon?

I was just going over the instructions very quickly now and it ask’s the user to have a PC connection over USB Is there not support for Apple users as well?…

I agree 100% with bixby.
Also, I’d love to be able to start my 5DMkII recording video via the iPhone.
For Nikons It would be great if the App could work with WT-4 wireless transmitter
Same as Alan, wondering if the Canon EOS Rebel T1i/500d will be supported anytimei n the near future?
Just got the new Canon SDK today. There is support in there for the T1i so you can expect to get that in the 1.1 update next month.
Thanks,
Mike
@Alan Stewart:
The 500D / Kiss X3 / T1i (all the same camera) will be supported in the 1.1 update next month.
@Sean Davey:
Sorry for the confusion. When it says “PC connection” it is not meant in the “Windows PC” nomenclature. The PC Connection is something that most of the camera manufacturers use in the generic “personal computer” phrase. Mac or Win. Apple users are indeed supported.
Hi Mike,
Still cant resolve connection on 40D … thats because I cant find how to set the connection mode to “PTP ” mode ..despite searching menus, manuals and google on line …. any chance you guys can post a link showing the how to ?? Thanks… Brian
@Brian:
To the best of my knowledge, there isn’t a setting you have to change on the 40D – that PTP setting is automatic. Try contacting our tech support team with this form.

Can the iphone remote app be used for the Canon G11? Or will it someday?
thx
After searching Yahoo I found your site about Update to Supported Canon DSLRs – One onOne with Mike Wong . I think both are good and I will be coming back to you and them in the future. Thanks
Works fantastic with the Canon EOS 7D in live mode!
Will this work with the new Canon Rebel T2i (550D)?
thanks!
Wow! such unique info on the subject.
