Does the timer also control the length of the exposure, and if so, what is the longest exposure which can be set (other than "bulb")?

Yes you can set the exposure time.According to the directions from 0sec to 99hr 59min 59s (in one sec increments)

Forever by holding the button down you can go forever. Using the lock button after pressing the button holds it open as well.

Yes there is the option for infinite shutter actuations (ie photos taken). You can just set the interval and bulb times and then select the "infinite" tab in the app. Theoretically your camera should keep going until the batteries run out. My suggestion would be to download the app so that you can get familiar with the control settings. Overall, I'd recommend this unit very highly. Also the support people are great and got back to me immediately, so if you have questions I'm sure they'll do the same. Also with the App, there's the possibility of updating it to improve future functionality. ;-)p

YES it does though it says the timer button .. you really have to hit the exposure button on the right side of the dial.I just made a video using the process today. I havent been able to take a shot while shooting video though...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY69KSvKoEk&list;=UUEjpSE4pOhftupgVjQw1UGA

Yes, I tried it and it will hold the exposure as long as you want. Set the camera to bulb mode remember to cover the viewfinder when doing this. Check your owners manual (pg 100) for bulb exposures for more detail.

Absolutely. I often use this remote for star trail photos, where I set the camera to BULB, and the release manages the exposure. I can easily do &gt;30 second exposure, and often have left the camera and remote set up shoot a series of 5-minute exposures for as many as I need to get the desired effect, up to the limit for the remote.

In bulb mode it holds the shutter open until the set time elapses. I think this is accomplished by keeping an electrical circuit closed for the set time.

Oh, I misunderstood. I thought you were talking about time lapse photos. Frankly, I did not realize it had a timeout setting that cannot be over-ridden. My use of this has been purely as a wireless shutter release cable doing product photography. Will merely taking a shot before the 15 minute timeout reset the timer for another 15 minutes?

I am sure the timer allows you to manually override the timed settings. (Most timers do allow this.) The On/Off buttons provide this capability.

Yes. You slide the tab under the switch button. You don't have to hold the button down for a long exposure.

The pictures always are taken, sometimes it takes a few seconds to focus it. I have not used the timer function yet but the flash always works when its needed, and if it doesnt go off when you want it to you can force it on by changing the mode to backlighting and it will always go off.

Assuming you mean to set a timer to delay taking the picture, the answer is no. AT least I have not founfd a way to do this.

Actually David if your shooting with a SLR you should have a bulb setting on your camera. In this mode you control the length of your exposure. The remote has a lock feature that will allow you to take long exposures.

The timer is controlled by the photo eye, but can be set to be lit 4-hours, 6-hours or 8-hours and/or remain lit until dawn.

I have been setting my timer to 9 hours, and that seems to work well. You can control the timing. If you think 9 hours is too long, set for less.

This Timer is Great to have,however I fine it much easier to set up a Action in Photoshop to handle ev +/- 5 stops faster and have it save each exposure as a file,then open the 5 exposures in any HDR programs that you may have.Or you can set it up in camera raw presets.Look around you can download actions as well. Also Lightroom can process different ev as well but Photoshop Action is Quicker.

Yes there is. Set the exposure dial to "P". This is the programed (automatic) mode.

Yes. Set camera to bulb mode in manual exposure. Then you can set shutter time with the remote.
