Apple® Mobile Devices and EL-Skyport WiFi: There's an App for that!

The first wireless system which enables you to control and remote Elinchrom RX flash units from your Apple® mobile device such as iPhone™, iPad™ or iPod Touch™ will be available this month.

The idea is to use devices for controlling flash units, which already exist in big volume in the market and which many owners consider to be the most practical and user friendly mobile devices ever. This was a good motivation for Elinchrom to develop the mobile remote application and the EL-Skyport WIFI module, to enable a link between the two systems.
