MRMC, a Nikon owned company based in UK, gives a different meaning to telephoto: getting a photo from a digital camera that is far away from you. How far away? You may be at your home in New York and the camera may be in Sydney Australia (is that far enough?).

MRMC provides a robotic setting that embeds the camera with a lens (up to 500mm focal length) and software to control the whole setting and the camera. The robot is wireless connected to the internet and can be controlled from remote. The software controls both the robot (so that the photographer can point the camera in any direction for the right framing) and all camera settings (focus, ISO, aperture, shutter speed, …). The photographer sees on a screen what she would see through the camera viewfinder, including all data that are normally displayed in the viewfinder, can set the desired values and of course can press the shutter.
