ShutterSnitch App now supports Fujifilm’s built-in WiFi

FR-reader Trenton (thanks) shares this news with all of us. ShutterSnitch app now supports Fujifilm’s built-in WiFi. He tested it and here is his feedback:

“Ok, managed to make it work. It does work, but with the current Fuji’s rendering of “PC Auto Save” it has nothing to do with wireless tethering.

Basically, once you’ve registered your iPad as a “PC Auto Save” destination, you gain the ability to transfer photos to that iPad. Not automatically, mind ya. Not “transfer as you shoot”. But by going into playback menu -> pc auto save, then you’ll have to initiate a pc auto save session… after you’ve done that, your ShutterSnitch gains the access to jpegs and RAFs on the card of the camera. You can select which ones to download and do just that.

Any button press on a camera breaks the session, so this is not a tethering. However, it saves a helluva lot of battery power by using an external access point instead of creating ad hoc network.

In short: good start, but needs a lot of Kaizen love to become a true tethering solution.”
