Please note :
DSMC2, SCARLET-W and RAVEN all have built in wifi, older DSMC1 EPIC / SCARLET cameras require additional wireless accessories to work with foolcontrol (see below).
This application will only work with RED DSMC cameras. It does not work with the RED ONE or any other camera. Focus control requires a RED Canon or Nikon mount and a compatible electronic lens.
take fool control of your camera !
