Pentax Remote Assistant

Does the Pentax Remote Assistant software work with the *ist DS? If not does anyone know of plans by Pentax to issue a similar package for the DS, or of third-party soaftware that does the same job?

I tried it and the answer is 'sort of'. You can fire the camera with it, and some of the functions work, but the button layout in the program window reflects the *istD and only where the two cameras are the same does it make sense. Also the automatic transfer of the picture to the computer seems not to work. Download it and see!

Tony,

Thanks, I'll give it a try. At least it sounds like it won't break my camera!
