I have used the Digital Director with a Nikon D800 in the studio for a number of years now and have found it to work well to shoot without looking through the viewfinder or the small liveview screen It had some issues early on with things like RAW format but those have been resolved When using strobes it would be nice to have a switch that would either open the lens full or kick up the ISO to a predetermined number to be able to see it better to focus or check postion With video most monitors have a mirror function that flips the image left to right if you want the subject to see themselves in a more natural way Having that feature would make it more useful for YouTubers I could complain about the hardware being a bit too plastic But I can say we have paid for this thing numerious times over and saved alot of time If I could give it 4 5 stars I would But it is a near miss for a full five                 Does what it should after a few stumbles MN Photographer

No issues found the hardware update and installed easily Loaded the app and everything is great in iOS 11 The feature I really enjoy is when the histogram updates for zoomed areas Makes pulling a face mask histogram a treat I can also setup my lighting by myself without having to go back and forth from the subject position to the camera I would like the option to download video clips full aware of the issues that may create                     Works Great MyPox

I am happy with the device itself but as I ve written before the app needs to be updated and expanded to include more features that are useful to Camera Operators and Cinematographers The emphasis that Manfrotto has put on still shooting while only giving lip service to the video operator is really disappointing and I m afraid is a direct indication that they have all but given up on the product all together This is all deeply disheartening as I generally really love all of my Manfrotto products             Still Missing Critical Features JNihart

I have the iPad Air version of the Digital Director and the app does not recognize the Digital Director anymore It just shows an error saying Cannot use device The connected device is not supported I have looked around looking for a solution and many people are having the same problem but there has been no support or attempt to fix this issue This are not cheap products and now they are obsolete without the app     Does not work with latest iOS CiscoLamessi

Love this It does need a couple of more features to make it more professional use First we need to have different aspect ratio crops for viewing and proper framing such as 2 35 to 1 Second many video shooters use a flat video profile such as canon cLog We need to have 3D LUTs available to make viewing on the monitor look more like the final product Small HD and other monitors have done these features nicely                 great needs a few more features Ron Josef

This app used to work great with my 5DMiii and 6d now it won t recognize either of them Please fix whatever you screwed up in the last updates     Useless Brooklynjibaro

I have the latest app and firmware but the app keeps saying it can t work with the attached digital director It is the model made for iPad Air 2 and of course I am using an iPad Air 2 Will not connect Shows error message every minute Support No help Their comment is try the latest app and firmware     Will not work Jackypo88

No matter how many times I try to use this app with the hardware it never works     Piece of junk Mikekrum

You re paying 500 for an app and a piece of plastic The documentation is nonexistent Every time I try to use the focus function in the app it focuses to the upper left part of the screen no matter where I touch I have to use the camera to focus And yes limited documentation I checked the camera settings thoroughly It s very clunky overall Feels like a beta product Bottom line it s not ready Certainly not worth 500 This will be shipped back to Amazon     Not worth the money Bill Baber

Please make this app compatible with all canon cameras t3 or greater Thanks             Great app but not compatible with all cameras djprozac
