Monitor
- Choose how HUD settings (ISO, SHT, F, WB) open: slider strip or wheel window.
- The strip no longer jumps back to the camera value while you slide.
Player
- Fixed: in landscape, the chevron closed the player instead of hiding the HUD.
Photos & DRIVE
- DRIVE only offers the modes each camera supports (CH+ no longer appears where it doesn't exist).
- Z 9: Q · C15/C30/C60/C120 can be selected from the app. If the dial is in control, the selector warns you before trying.
- ZR, Z 8, Z 6III and Z f: C15 to C120 can be selected directly.
- CL and CH speed configurable from the app (CH only on Z 8 and Z 9).
- In C15 to C120 only JPEG is offered.
- Z 9: TONE tables per codec and photo AF modes (3D, DYN-M, DYN-L, PIN).
- AF AREA updates when switching between AF-S and AF-C.
Shutter
- In CL, CH and C modes, press and hold to shoot a burst; release to stop. Works in Control and Monitor.
- The SHOTS counter counts photos saved to the card (a RAW+JPEG pair counts as one) and updates live while you hold.
Tether
- Bursts arrive grouped: a few thumbnails per burst, with files transferred only when you pick a photo or request the whole burst.
- The station can download bursts automatically; a burst requested manually only goes to whoever requested it.
- No more repeated downloads or duplicate files when reconnecting.
- The JPEG from a RAW+JPEG pair is saved with its own name.
- Downloading an entire burst no longer runs the host out of memory.… more - 📈ZineControl entered the top 10 in 2 chartsTop Paid · Photo & Video · ES · Top Paid · Photo & Video · NL

Review momentum
ⓘ How we measure thisReview momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
