4.5 Timing Mode (Intervalometer)

The timing mode allows for advanced interval shooting, ideal for time-lapse photography.

   • Number (N): Number of shots to take.
   • Repeat (RPT): Number of times to repeat the entire sequence.
3. Press the start button to begin the timed sequence.

Example: To take 10 photos with a 5-second interval between each, set N=10, INTVL=00:00:05. If using Bulb mode, set LONG to your desired exposure time.

5. Maintenance

• Keep the remote control units clean and dry. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe surfaces.
• Avoid exposing the units to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight.
