A perfect trigger for everything

A perfect trigger for everything and anything. The various mode just works from sound trigger to laser trigger to lightning detector. A perfect trigger for all occasions and situations. It works best with a smartphone to set the settings.

Great affordable trigger.

Love this trigger so far. I am not a pro, so I can only evaluate it from a hobbyist point of view. Uses your smartphone as a controlller. It has a ton of useful tools and options. No directions come in the box, so it's helpful to know that the user manual manual buried under the menu (three dots) tab on the app.

Great trigger

If you are in the look out for a high speed trigger that works on sound, light, or breaking a laser beam (which is part of the kit) This is for you. Catch that lightening or the dart hitting the balloon. Tis is a great device controlled from your phone. There many different modes to work with

Pluto is Awesome!

I had a chance to use it last week while in the mountains shooting astrophotography. Combined with a skytracker it worked flawlessly. With the companion app I was able to set up my camera to shoot a series of shots automatically. I can't wait for another opportunity to use it again!

Awesome Camera Trigger - Make sure you get this one!!

After much searching and checking reviews I did pull the Trigger and have been taking a lot of shots here in the area. Winter is here right now, so no lightening shots but the night star shots are pretty awesome with this unit.. Taking some wildlife and bird shots are right on too. This works very nice with my Canon EOS 90D and Samsung cell phone with out a flaw.. If your thinking about getting this piece of equipment, look no further and get it now.

Very, very happy!

I purchased this Pluto Trigger because I love storm photography. The first day I used it for daytime photography, I captured 4 different lightning bolt pics! That is tough to do during the day, but I got them! Can't wait to use it next week on my vacation to do some star trails pics! Great product, easy to use, and has already proven reliable!

Awesome and easy

These pics were from my first attempt at lightning and using the trigger. At first I had no idea what I was doing. I ended up in manual focus and 800 ISO , 4s shutter , f10 . The trigger was firing my Canon 6D MkII almost every 4s as the storm was incredible. I was in Oklahoma for business and shot these from my hotel balcony. Luck of location/timing was the biggest factor. I may have been able to get the shots myself, but no way could I trigger as fast as the Pluto. Can't wait for the next storm to try out again.

Good trigger for the price

The kit arrived in good condition, although the cable did not look like the one in the photo. It came with a short cable and I had to order the coiled one separately. In spite of that the trigger works well and I hope to take some water drop photos using the drop valve I ordered from the same manufacturer.

Over the years, photography has evolved with the advent of innovative technology, and the High-Speed Smart Camera Trigger is a testament to this progression. This advanced gadget is a photographer's ally, designed to elevate the art of capturing images with its multifaceted functionality and compatibility. The Pluto Trigger, a cornerstone of modern photography, is not just a remote trigger but a creative tool that opens up a world of possibilities for both amateur and professional photographers.

Crafted for precision and ease, the Pluto Trigger is a high-quality, durable device that boasts a compact design and is incredibly easy to use. It is the epitome of versatility, offering 24 different modes to unleash your creativity. From the simplicity of remote shutter release to the complexity of capturing high-speed events like lightning strikes, this smart camera trigger is engineered to respond with remarkable speed and accuracy.

The Pluto Trigger is controlled via a free, user-friendly app available for both iPhone and Android devices, connecting through Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for efficient power consumption. The app is not only a remote control but also a powerful assistant, providing tools such as a depth of field calculator, ND filter calculator, and even solar/lunar event tracking to ensure you never miss the perfect lighting conditions.

This smart trigger is designed for seamless integration with a wide range of cameras, thanks to its compatibility with 2.5mm or hot shoe connections. Its long-range performance, with a 300-400' range and 2.4GHz radio frequency on 4 channels, ensures reliable operation without interference, making it a superior choice over alternative triggers.

Whether you're looking to capture the intricate dance of water droplets (with the additional Droplet Valve), the nocturnal movements of wildlife with the built-in PIR sensor, or simply want to take a group photo including yourself with the selfie remote function, the Pluto Trigger is your go-to device. It even supports infrared (IR) remote control, extending its reach to a broader array of camera models beyond DSLRs.

For those who wish to synchronize multiple cameras wirelessly, the RF Transmitter & Receiver add-on is available, expanding the capabilities of this already impressive device. It's important to note that compatibility with BLE is essential for the Pluto Trigger app, so users should ensure their devices support Bluetooth 4.0 LE or later.

In summary, the High-Speed Smart Camera Trigger is an indispensable tool for photographers who value high-quality, durable, and versatile equipment. Its easy-to-use interface, compact form factor, and compatibility with a multitude of cameras make it an excellent choice for capturing a vast array of photographic subjects and scenarios.
