FAQ's

To turn off the autofocus in between shots of sequential shooting or the Basic Timer Function, ensure Autofocus is disabled on your camera.

A number of channels are available on your remote control to allow you to use several receivers, each set to a different channel, activated by one single transmitter. Simply change the channel on the transmitter as desired to activate each separate receiver.

To calculate the number of shots taken, multiply N1 x N2.

If using bursts of continuous shooting, to calculate the number of shots taken, multiply 'frames per second' setting of the camera x Long x N1 x N2.
