Remote Canon 5D II with iPhone

Phase One has a method of allowing use of the iPhone to remotely control Capture One, this also works with the Canon Utilities. Here's the URL:

It took 5-10 minutes to get this working on a Mac. My older iPhone (1st generation) often gets "out of memory" warnings but these can be ignored until it crashes, the utility then needs to be restarted. VNC Lite is recommended and seems to work fine.

That sounds cool. Too bad I don't have an iphone. I did just buy a china-made remote to do time-lapse etc., but it doesn't control the shutter speed below 1 s.

If you wanted shutter speed lower than 1s, wouldn't you just set that in the camera?
