Review on Enhance your Sony Multi-Terminal Camera with the Vello ShutterBoss II Timer Remote Switch by Keegan Herbert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works, but could be more intuitive.

This works and allows you to activate the shutter on Sony cameras like the A7 series with interval, delay, long exposure and burst modes. The main difficulty is that the timer functions are difficult to program until you understand that you MUST NOT turn on the timer until you connect it to the camera while the camera is off. Otherwise, this is an exercise in frustration. These conditions are stated in the instructions, but they are not stated in absolute terms and are not asserted with reasonable urgency. Any other mode and remote control will work as a faulty unit. There's probably a communications issue that requires this, it seems like a pretty tricky requirement. Otherwise he does what he has to.

Pros
  • wow
Cons
  • boring package
