DSLR camera remote A smartphone app and a program running on a PC connected to the camera.Drawback is it comes more heavy on the field. The convenience is that the smart device controlling the camera operations is wirelessy connected to the bridge computer and can be a very valuable companion in studio work. Hence proliferation of tools claimed to coontrol the camera from a smartphone, that are more conveniently using a real computer as bridge. Unfortunately very few smart devices have an USB host to control external readers, iOS would need a special circuitry attatched to their propretary port.

If your camera is listed, there is a chance that one or the other software will support it. The most complete list of cameras supporting PTP or other means of direct control is found in the gphoto project. Hence it's impossible to tell which cameras can be used for PTP bracketing. Not all PTP enabled cameras implement all features. However, availability of cheap USB host circuitry has triggered some do-it-yourself projects and apparently even some smartphones can use USB hosts nowadays.

Hence there are many programs to control your camera from a computer but only few that do the same from a portable device. The gphoto project also collects informations what cameras can be remotely controlled and in what ways:
For other OS's the gphoto project should provide access to such cameras. PTP is part of the WIA architecture on Windows, hence it is fairly easy to build a camera control software using f.e. Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) is built into many cameras and should provide a means of not only transferring pictures over USB but also controlling the camera remotely.
