Professional photographers have many reasons to need to trigger their camera shutters remotely; from not wanting to disturb your subject, to putting your camera on top of a 40 foot pole, to wanting to interact more with your subject, and so on. A wireless trigger is the perfection solution in these cases.
If you’re like me, and you have tried one of these products before, frustration can definitely set in. Infrared links which need that direct line of sight can be a pain. Getting the correct focus on your shot is always an issue, and the best products out there right now that can handle most of these issues cost around 500 dollars.
ShutterBox to the rescue!
Imagine triggering multiple cameras, or off-camera flashes remotely from your android device, without the use of Wi-Fi. This new device turns your android into a powerful remote control.
With the push of a button you can take different types of pictures up to 200 feet away, including:
- Single shots
- Photoburst,
- Lightning photography
- Time lapse
How does it work?
It uses a wireless communication between it and the smart device. The product sits on the camera’s hotshoe, and comes with the appropriate cable to attach to your DSLR camera. As soon as you click one of the four options, the smart devices sends a signal to the controller which releases your camera’s shutter.
It’s that simple!
