Jerry Cresp replied to Mark Williams's discussion Smartphone for aerial photographs
"Spag?,
I gave up on trying to trigger any camera  from the APM. It became simpler and easier just to set whatever camera you are using to a 3 second interval and let it go. With the capacity of SD cards these days, it is easier to delete the photos…"
