Wireless Radio-based Flash Trigger Control for Camera

Description:

• The Wireless Flash Trigger is a radio remote system for firing hotshoe or PC-connected flash units wirelessly.
• Camera Tigger Control consists of a transmitter/receiver pair housed in inexpensive black plastic enclosures.
• Each unit is about the size of a small box of matches.
• The transmitter fits into a camera’s hotshoe and the receiver clips onto the hotshoe base of a battery-powered flash unit.
• Operation is very simple. Turn the receiver on by sliding over the power switch, and then take a photo. That’s it. A radio signal is transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver that instructs the flash to fire.
• Maximum effective area of the Radio-based Flash Trigger: 30m
• Total weight: 114.5g

Transmitter:

• The transmitter also has a red LED that illuminates when a shot is taken, a small test pushbutton for test firing, a DIP switch block with two switches and a 2.5mm phono socket.
• Since the switch block has two switches with two positions each, a total of 4 digitally encoded signals are possible. The receiver will only trigger if both devices are set to the same code.
• Radio working frequency: 433MHz
• Size: 6 x 4 x 1.4cm

Receiver:

• The receiver is a small rectangular plastic box with a chamfered top.
• It has a hotshoe mount for attaching a standard battery-powered hotshoe flash unit, and an extruded aluminium L bracket screwed to the side which can be used for attaching the trigger and flash to a stand or tripod.
• The black-painted L bracket, which can be rotated to tilt the flash, is fastened to the box with a plastic-handled bolt.
• It also has a 1/4-20 hole for screwing the unit to a tripod via a normal mounting stud, and has grooves in its foot so it can fit into another shoe bracket.
• This lets you slide the receiver into an umbrella mounting bracket designed to accommodate a hotshoe flash.
• The receiver is apparently designed to work with a sync (trigger) voltage of 3 volts or less
• This unit powered by 2AAA battery(not included)
• Size: 8.4 x 3.7 x 2.3cm
