Yes, it can be used as a remote shutter release by pressing the center button.

Yes, it does have instant release. No settings, just press the thumb button.

I've used it in low light, and if I set the time to 2 seconds before taking the pic it you will get a better picture. Because when you physically hit the "snap" button you move the camera a bit, setting the time to 2 seconds gives the camera time to focus again besides adjusting for low light . BTW, the timer button in live pic mode is the left button under the record dot. Hope this helps!

No. But after holding the button for about 3-5 seconds into the exposure, when you let go, it will still continue and then end the exposure when you press the button again.

I assume you are referring to high speed sync. The answer is no, holding the button for an extended period will work to keep the shutter open in bulb mode, but that's about the extent of its usefulness (outside of continuous exposure mode). However, if you set your camera and strobe properly for High Speed Sync, it will work properly with just an instantaneous press of the release button.

Anything you can set the camera up to do when you push the shutter button you can do with this. You're just pushing the shutter button remotely. So if you can set it up in the menu and then push the shutter button, it's no different.

You can set the 10 sec timer. You press the button to take a picture and you have 10 seconds before the camera takes a picture. You just have to push a few buttons to change this setting beforehand.

Hi there, sorry for the late response but we just started using this. The shutter delay is basically non-existent, it snaps as soon as the button is pushed which is awesome! Highly recommend!

I do not know exactly how long it takes to trigger the camera but it has been acceptable for my use (still photo's at a mineral lick). The trigger intervals can be set at 20 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes or 10 minutes. CAUTION: I purchased my camera about 4 month ago and it worked great for 5 weeks before it failed. I returned it to Wildview, they "repaired" it and sent it back to me approximately 3 weeks later. I put it back out and it worked fine for about 4 weeks before it failed again.

I'm one of those guys who starts pushing buttons before I look at the manual. hah This is what I figured out: First, you can use the button to take photos even without batteries or the power turned on. If all you want is a remote shutter without any of the timer features, you should be ok without turning it on. Across the top are the following marks: DE - Delay.. how long to pause before taking the first photo BU - Bulb.. basically how long to keep the shutter open when your camera is in BULB mode INT - Interval.. how long to wait between taking the next photo N - Number of photos to take. Blank for unlimited &lt;speaker&gt; - Volume of beeps. Including countdown beeps before next photo is taken LEFT/RIGHT on the direction pad to select which of these you're changing CENTER BUTTON on direction pad to tell it you want to change the selected item After you press the CENTER BUTTON, you can use LEFT/RIGHT to select which item to change (hours/minutes/seconds/etc).. if you press LEFT/RIGHT again when you're on the first/last setting for that item, it'll go to the previous/next item so you can set all your parameters without exiting "edit mode". Once you ever everything set, exit edit mode by pressing the center button again. Press start/stop to start the countdown and image taking sequence. Looks like you can also hold down the main button (has HOLD printed on it) to take long exposures (might require BULB mode? haven't tested this). Also, sliding the main button up appears to hold it down for you until you slide it back down. You can't slide it up with the button pressed (I originally thought you'd press then slide up to hold but it doesn't work like that). The light/lock button lights up the display on a single press, locks the settings on a long-press. I think that's everything. Hope that helps!

yes. presss the release once to open the shutter, and then again to close it. This is after the shutter speed on your camera is set to "bulb", of course.

Yes it works, It's cool. In Bulb mode, yes you have to keep it press to keep the shutter open. But, You can put manual mode and then chage shutter speet to 'Time' (after 30seconds) and then use this as wire relese. 1st Clic "Open", 2nd Click "Close". It's superb

I doubt you can hold a button down via wifi, I believe you can set a long period of open shutter time though. Email CamRanger, their support is very good and somewhat prompt. support@camranger.com

Yes, I use this shutter release all the time. Very handy for an inexpensive shutter release.

You would set your camera's exposure to 1 sec and then set the timer to 3 second intervals. So it would be 1 second for the exposure and 2 seconds in between shots.

I haven't used it as a shutter release but will work. There's a switch on the transmitter that will switcj from flash trigger to shutter trigger.

On my d90 and d3300, it does take longer intervals. The idea is that this will hit the shutter release button for you at any time interval you set, so u can put it on any setting. But make sure to have the focus on manual or it'll refocus every shot before taking it.
