The CamRanger. Wireless DSLR Control For Your iPhone or iPad.
Wireless DSLR controllers have been around for some time now but the Cam Ranger looks like it might be the best one available now. The Cam Ranger retails for $299 US. Here is a rip from their website.
CamRanger is a stand-alone device that connects to select Canon or Nikon DLSR cameras with a provided USB cable. It creates an ad-hoc WiFi network that your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch can then connect to. The free CamRanger iOS app then enabled control of the camera. There is no need for a computer or existing Internet connection.
