Is the description on this item correct? It says it has a lot of featured buttons, but I only see the vertical shutter release button on the photos.

the button slides back, toward the camera, not up or down. Slide it back, it will unlatch then you simply turn the opposite way you turned to get it on.

There is a long wait period between fully depressing the shutter button (this is after focusing with a half press) and capture.By the time the picture is taken the moment is well over.I have a Canon G3 - it does not have a similar issue, however Canon's support is unwilling to acknowledge that there is a problem.Locking the exposure prior to the shot fixes the problem, but then you have to do this for each shot and it means another flash.

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.

the battery door detaches and there is a slot on the grip to put it so you don't loose it. the slot is on the section that gets inserted into the camera.in the picture here it is the right where the slot is on the vertical part.

Sounds like you got funkled as I did recently by a Marketplace vendor. She told me I could get a refund through Amazon. Would send you a photo of mine, but it's a .7 and the buttons are different from yours. Sorry!

I decided to sell the camera before trying to install the new button so I really can't say. Good luck.

Actually it is. I had to find out how to use it in 4 months. A lot of people on here said it but never explain it. I'll explain it for ya. When you got to the "menu", scroll down to where it reads "Enable Shutter Release". That's how you use it. I never knew what that meant and Sony damn sure ain't going to you either. My advise is get a really good tripod and the remote control. If you hand held shoot with these tubes, you'll be pissed. Enjoy, peace.

Well, LOL, let me break the tie. Until I read the question I didn't notice the quick release lever just below the threaded head piece. Now that I read it, I see it and it's definitely better than unscrewing the camera after each use. Sweet. So Yes, it has a quick release lever.

Not sure if this is an answer to your question? The button does not lock. But if you have a setting on your camera for long exposure such as night shots. It will trigger it just fine. My wife and I use it for night shots and low light shots all the time. We use it with a Nikon D200. We like it.

there are not universal buttons. You are supposed to be able to operate the camera through the plastic enclosure. It did not work very well which is why I returned the product

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.

May be out of focus. The camera has auto focus but you have to let the pic come into focus prior to hitting the button. Some times more light is needed.

Yes, simply hold down the button on the controller for about 1-2 seconds and let go, but with mine I've notice that it doesn't stay locked for long especially with long exposer time lapse photos, for example: 30 second exposer over a period of an hour, it only took about 3-4 photos every time, I eventually had to babysit the shutter release and my camera to make sure it was actually taking the photos... It could be just mine that's defective... Still works great though!

Usually there is a little rubber cover over the hole for connection. Look in the hole and see what it looks like and compare it to the end on the shutter release. Not all are the same for the different models and very frustrating.

This is a great camera but there are so many features I don't know them all yet. I'm almost certain I remember reading that it has a self-timer, but I haven't used that so I don't know if it applies to more than one pic.
