Can I take multiple shots with this, or do I have to reset it with each shot, as with using the wireless remote?

yes, once you set the shooting mode to continuous it will keep shooting as long as you keep the remote button pushed. i personally don't use it much this way but i have tested it and it works fine.

I haven't used it for a while, but I seem to recall that you can set it to upload after each shot automatically or only when you decide. I think I determined that you should NOT have it upload after each shot. I do know for a fact that I have been able to shoot a lot of photos and then transfer the lot later. Also, check that your mobile device is not set to sleep. That would certainly kill the connection. Sorry, I can't be more helpful at the moment.

Inside of each device (the remote and the receiver) there are four pins where the batteries are. These four pins can be on and off individually specifying which frequency channel to use. Make sure the pins are exactly the same inside of the remote and inside of the receiver! Thus they get the same frequency channel and can talk to one another.This way you can have your individual frequency channel when there are more photographers around, giving each photographer his own channel so the devices won't interfere with each other.Please tell if it works.

To use the remote with multiple cameras, you will need the remote to be on firmware version 2.0 & have multiple AS100V's.To get to the mutli-cam option, you need to press the menu button when not connected with a camera, go to the network setting and select the multi-camera option. You need to also make sure the AS100V has it's WiFi setting set to "Multi".

I have the 7D, but it sounds like you may be setting your DRIVE mode to either 2 or 10 second self-timer... I know it has the remote icon next to it, but it doesn't need to be set on those to utilize a WIRED remote. (you only need to put it on that mode to activate the wireless remote functionality) You can set the DRIVE to single shot, continuous shot, high quality multiple shot, (and silent versions) 2, or 10 seconds from that option. Try the continuous shot, with the remote plugged in, and it'll work.

Although I have used the remote to trigger my camera, I have not tried the extended exposure part. The instructions do say when you activate the trigger and push it forward it will lock the shutter open for timed exposures. Sorry I haven't been able to use it more often.

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

No, you set your camera to the self timer function and scroll down until you find the remote wireless setting.

Yes.. you need one per light + the transmitter (from the camera)If you want a cheaper alternative get the PW PlusXNote: I use PW because got 2 as gift quite some time ago and to keep compatibility, as my light set up grew. However, there's more affordable remote trigger systems out there that are very reliable (as per my fellow photographers who use them)

Make sure your camera is in the mode to use the remote. I had a problem as well at first and then realized my camera was not in the mode for remote use.

I usually use the 6 shot mode. I seem to be losing a little power after 20 (6 shot) sequences---- though I am not sure. More testing.

No, just only set shoot mode to "remote shoot" or something like that (press at the left side of the wheel on the camera). And remove (pull) plastic cover from the remote unit to make battery connected and supply the unitIf does not work - either camera or unit is not fully operational then.

Yeah. I use mine with remote wireless triggers all the time. I really like the flash. It works great on the hot shoe in manual or ettl and the wireless remote has only missed a couple of times but more due to the trigger than the flash. It's a solid flash

Does the remote need to be pointed directly toward the camera, or I could I discretely signal the shutter release with my hands behind my back for example? Hoping to avoid running back and forth for large group photos.

so far I have only used it once. I took 9 or 10 shots. im planning to use it again in a few days. I checked to see if it still worked just yesterday and had no problems....

No, it just duplicates the functions on the shutter button. So, you can set the camera's exposure to "bulb", and use the remote to open and close your shutter (and if you shoot in mirror up mode you'll get even less jiggle), but you'll still have to watch a clock to determine when to release the button and close the shutter. I'm not aware of a remote with an integrated timer.

Yes. If the camera shutter speed is NOT set to "bulb" or similar and you lock the remote shutter in the on position, it will perform continuous shooting. However depending on the length of your exposure, a better option might be to use the timers built in delay timer, as longer exposures take more processing time.
