    I received this timer remote control when I brought my camera and I found your video tuition extremely useful. I am sure that I will watch your tuition again when I am uncertain on a function. Thank you very much.

      Hi Joe, after having played around with this for two months and being unable to figure out why I always had far fewer photos after a session than I should have had, I finally figured it out: while attempting star trails and getting considerable gaps, I realized that it's not functioning correctly for me. After going through an exposure, it doesn't release the shutter until the next round takes place. I use it primarily for astrophotography, so I'm generally doing 2-5 minute exposures. If set it for 30 two minute-long exposures with an interval of 5-10 seconds, I only end up with 15 two minute-long exposures. It stops recording after 2 minutes, but it doesn't release the shutter until the next sequence, and thus doesn't do anything in the intervening two minutes. If I manually press the shutter release button during the interval though, everything works fine, only I can't be doing that: I need to sleep!
      I've played around with all settings - noise reduction is off, I've tried recording only as RAW, only as JPG, switched to long intervals, intervals longer than the exposure time - everything, but nothing seems to release the shutter after an exposure.
      Do I have a faulty unit? Is it just not compatible with my Nikon D3300? I've written to and called Neewer, but haven't gotten any response yet (and I'm super impatient). If you have any insight on this, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

    • @JoeJacksonJr

      The camera will need time to process the file after taking the photo. I recommend setting an additional gap of 5 seconds between the shots. What is likely happening is the remote is telling the camera to take another photo before the camera is ready and thus it skips it. So in the end you have less photos then you thought you should. I have ran into this before with night time-lapses. This is why for that I only use a simple wires remote shutter then I can lock down the shutter button. If I put it in continuous shooting mode, it will take the photo, process it and as soon as the camera can take another exposure it will. Hope this helps.

    Just got this and you video helped me understand how to use it! It's a good product however their website stated that the bulb mode does work also as backward timer (without the need to press the button again to close the shutter again) but it's not like that... it was the main reason i got this remote control! Can you suggest any work around? Is there any hidden function to set a specific amount of seconds within the bulb mode?

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  7 років тому +1

      Hey Luca, glad the video helped. But I do not know of any work around. Cheers..

    • @_luca_7126
      @_luca_7126 7 років тому +1

      Joe I've managed to make it work that way with a countdown! Just have the camera on bulb mode and the remote control NOT on bulb mode BUT on intervalometer mode! (the one you start to describe at 2.36)
      There you'd set one single repetition and the amount of seconds you want the shutter to stay open. It works nicely with my Canon 6D however at times it's not very precise but will do, for example if you set 45 seconds on the remote control you might actually get 44,8s in camera, on another test it was precise tho (150s).
      Thank you again for the vid!

  • @Angie-bv3ih
    @Angie-bv3ih 8 років тому +1

    Hi,
    I just bought it and I really wish I'd found this before hand, honestly. In any case, I'm having trouble with the exposure. I want to experiment and want to extend the exposure past the 30" available in the camera so I decided to give this a shot. But no matter the number I put in the LONG option (20" or 15'), the camera shutter always stays open for the same time -- not very long. I already have my camera in BULB mode, am I missing something else?
    Thanks again, great video.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  8 років тому +2

      Thank you Angeles. Try using the BULB on the intervalometer and also set the camera to Bulb. Press the button until you hear the shutter open, you will notice the timer will start. Then press the button on the intervalometer again when you have reached the amount of time you wish to use. Hope this helps. :-)

    • @Angie-bv3ih
      @Angie-bv3ih 8 років тому +1

      Yes! It worked! Thank you so much! It arrived the last minute for tonight's stargazing (I read in your other comments that this is not the best intervalometer for this, but there isn't much to do about the delay now anyways) and the exposure really troubled me. Apparently when I was trying to learn what BULB was I had the High Speed selected or something, and it kept taking pictures until I pressed the button again, not keeping the shutter open. Thank you again, and for the speed as well!! You saved my night :)

    • @JoeJacksonJr

    Thanks for the video. Nobody talks about how to set the channel, though, or wireless function advertised in the not so well written manual. The power / channel button does absolutely nothing (except for turning the device on and off) but no channel assignment whatsoever. Any hints?

  • @arijitghosh6378
    @arijitghosh6378 5 років тому

    Thanks for the tutorial. I have a question though. Where exactly in the interval timer shooting mode do we set the shutter speed? And can we lock the Shutter with this intervalometer so the camera keeps on taking pictures?

  • @marcjodar1411
    @marcjodar1411 6 років тому +1

    Hey thanks for the video. Just a question, when shooting a Time-Lapse the camera is non responsive. When the remote controls the camera, I cannot review my images or change exposure or anything. I can not do anything with my camera. Is there anyway to bypass that?

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  6 років тому +1

      Hey Marc, there is no way around it. We normally just take a few test photos to make sure everyone looks good. Then setup for the TL and drink a glass or two of tea while we wait for it to finish :-)

    • @marcjodar1411
      @marcjodar1411 6 років тому +1

      Hey Joe! Thanks for your reply! That's a shame, as I like to shoot day to night Time-Lapses, so I need to adjust the exposure while the light is changing. The only way around it I've found is to disconnect the remote, review the images and whatever I need, then plug it in again before the next shot. The only problem is that when I plug it in again it shoots. So I just need to delete that intermediate shot. Thanks anyway!

  • @JohnnySummerTime
    @JohnnySummerTime 6 років тому +1

    so would that mean in between every group of ten photos there would be an extra second since "RE" only goes to 1 second minimum? meaning that shots 1-10 are 2 seconds apart but shot 10-11 are 3 seconds apart then going back to 2 seconds for shots 11-20. I just bought this timer and if thats the case i'm gonna have to return it.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  6 років тому +1

      Yes it is possible to have delays between sets. If you do not want a delay between sets then just leave the value at 0. Hope this helps.

    • @JLBA14
      @JLBA14 6 років тому

      Joe Jackson yes how do u set the value to zero? I want to do just a basic interval say for example a photo every 5 seconds. But the RE messes it up. Unless you put it to 5 seconds to... should re have a 0 value?? I’m so confused.

      +RMS956123 Good question and thanks for commenting. I honestly have not used the 870 so I can not honestly say they are the same or not. This little intervalometer was very unique to me and I made the video becuase there was no information for anyone about setting it up. Now I also have another video on regular "normal" intervalometers on my channel so that video may also interest you as well. Cheers, Joe

      @jeanm7115 8 років тому

      Hi Ana, Hope you succeeded with your star trails project, I am too wanting this unit for star trails, but somehow still confused between 2 models to buy, this model here looks with more buttons, (logically more controls) how would you set it up for 200 photos, no delay between each shot and 30" exposure, this is set on the camera of course but how would it be on the cable release? thank you in advance.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  8 років тому

      I actually would not recommend a intervalometer for star trails. The reason being you want your camera to take a photo as soon as its ready without any delay. So if you got your camera on 20sec shutter, as soon as its able to take another photo (which is more like 22 to 23 seconds total) you want it to start again. This is a huge pain with intervalometers. This is why many including myself use a standard wired remote shutter release like this one here from Canon: amzn.to/2abCtZm This gives you the ability to lock the shutter button down. So when you set your camera to continuous shooting, as soon as its done with the last shot, it takes another with no hesitation or delay. Hope this helps.

    I want to set the unit to take a group of 3 photos ever 40 seconds. The 3 photos I want them to be a few seconds apart, like 3seconds apart for example. Then repeat this until I stop it. This model does it, and is now unavailable on Amazon. I have this model for my Canon, but now need one for my Sony, and not having luck.
    This feature of taking multi shots with defined times apart and then repeating this as long as you want is not clear in descriptions.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  8 років тому +1

      +james .mannequindisplay My 80D has a built in build timer. But I rather use this. It will prevent me from shaking the camera and ruin a nice long exposure. I just picked up a Hoya NDX400 two weeks ago and I am wanting to get out and test it some more as well. Need to be able to get longer then 30sec exposures. At least this has two things in one. Less gear is always better.

    • @mannequindisplay

    Joe: you will cause more Neewer products to be sold than the manufacturer is otherwise able/willing to do on its own. Reason: they can design & produce it, but must perceive that "how-to" videos as well as clear, unambiguous instructions are not necessity(s). Thought your video was thorough and well produced. Thanks for what you do.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  9 років тому +2

      +Vincent Alcazar Hey Vincent, over look my other reply mentioning the video was already out.. LOL I just noticed this post. Here is the catch to Neewer products. They do not actually make anything, what Neewer does is sub contract other companies that have been making products like the NW880 for other companies under other brands. To then make it for them. This is why their gear is still very much hit and miss at times in terms of quality. But also why they are able to sell at lower cost really good items also. Sad part is they honestly IMHO have very little information about the majority of the items they sell other then, a part number and description. This is why if you go to the Neewer youtube channel there is no videos, at least there wasnt a few weeks ago.. LOL But anyway I just hope everyone finds this video helpful. I like to save my viewers money and this is one of the products that I feel is excellent value the money. Cheers and Happy Holidays!

  • @kenlorig9239
    @kenlorig9239 7 років тому +1

    Your explanation of the BULB mode , is very vague . Have you figured that out better ? Trying to see if it will lock the shutter open for a determined amount of time, but cant get this option to work. Does the camera have to be in any specific shooting mode to get this option to work ? I have a T5i .Thanks

    • @kenlorig9239
      @kenlorig9239 7 років тому +1

      I figured it out by reading through other comments . Set your camera in MANUAL mode and then the shutter speed to BULB and then with this remote on BULB hit the shutter button on the remote and it will count down , and then hit again and it will close the shutter.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  7 років тому +2

      Hey Ken, I fully understand how bulb mode works with the remote. You do need to put your camera in bulb mode also or it will not work. I apologize if that part of the tutorial was not clear. But bulb mode does just one thing and they keeps the shutter open until the button is pressed again, while giving you the time you have kept the shutter open. Its just that simple. Hope this helps.

    • @kenlorig9239
      @kenlorig9239 7 років тому +1

Just wanted to help any one else that was stuck there as well and thats why I explained what my problem was. Very helpful video you have and the only one that explains this remote. Instructions that came with it were terrible. Thanks again.

  • @jeanm7115
    @jeanm7115 8 років тому +1

    Hi Joe, thanks for the video. I am considering buying this unit, but need some clarification. I will be using it for star trails. As my observation I can dot it in 2 different ways (or maybe more) the first way is using the CH mode, and the setup is on the camera 30" shutter speed (NOT BULB). This way it keeps shooting 1 after the other once the 30" exposure finishes until i stop it (acting like a simple shutter release being locked) .The other way is setting the "Delay" to 0 (I don't need a delay startup) setting "Long" to 0 (I have this setup on camera for 30") then set "Intervalometer" to 0 I don't need delays between the shots, "N1" to 99, then "Re" to 0 and "N2" to 2 this way i can make 99*2=198 photos. But in your video you said that the lowest value for "Re" is 1....... is that true? unfortunately I don't have the unit yet, but if this is true I am not going to buy it.... a simple 5$ cable release with lock can do the job.... (I don't need to buy it if i don't do time lapse). Awaiting your confirmation. Regards.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  8 років тому +1

      Hi Jean, I actually would not recommend a intervalometer for star trails. The reason being you want your camera to take a photo as soon as its ready without any delay. So if you got your camera on 20sec shutter, as soon as its able to take another photo (which is more like 22 to 23 seconds total) you want it to start again. This is a huge pain with intervalometers. This is why many including myself use a standard wired remote shutter release like this one here from Canon: amzn.to/2abCtZm This gives you the ability to lock the shutter button down. So when you set your camera to continuous shooting, as soon as its done with the last shot, it takes another with no hesitation or delay. Hope this helps.

    • @jeanm7115
      @jeanm7115 8 років тому +1

      Thanks a lot Joe for your reply. Indeed it helped understanding the global situation. I was thinking that the CH mode will do like the shutter lock, isn't that correct? Then if I buy the intervalometer I would be using it for timelapse.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  8 років тому

      Hey Jean, not sure what CH mode is to be honest. I use only Canon cameras so the other terms I am not familiar with. The intervalometer is ideal for time-lapse, but not star trails or time lapses of the night sky. Even if you use the intervalometer and get it to work, you will be plagued with jerky night skies. My method mentioned is so easy that you set you exposure, lock the button down on the shutter remote and just walk away. Nothing else to worry yourself with :-)

    • @jeanm7115
      @jeanm7115 8 років тому +1

      Hi again Joe. Yes the simplest and cheapest is to get a cable release with lock button option. CH Continuous High Speed as described in your video. So i was thinking this might act like the locked cable release (the shutter speed will be set on camera for as many seconds as i want), or am i wrong? then with this unit i can plan for future timelapse not only star trails... Cheers.

      @ikhanrpk 7 років тому +1

      Hi Joe, thanks for the video. I have the 870 model which is identical to this (as far as appearance and options go). This video is really helpful. I would add that the CH button is for channel selection. It has 32 2.4 Ghz wireless channels. This remote comes with a wireless receiver that connects to the camera through wire and you can use the main remote wireless within 100 meters.

    Trying to get it to take 8 second long exposures one after another without pressing the button each time so I can leave it to take as many as I want, how can I get this to work?

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  7 років тому +2

      I find just using a standard wired shutter release that you can lock the shutter button down with works better for this. The reason being is that with a 8 second exposure, you then still have to wait for the camera to process the image and save it. Which can mean it could take up to 12 seconds before the next capture. This makes using a intervalometer a pain. With a wired shutter release. You just set 8sec shutter speed in the camera. Press the button down to lock it on the remote and your done.. No other worries. Plus as soon as the camera can possibly take the next photo, it will. This is what I have been doing for star trail and night sky time-lapses. Hope this helps.

  • @JLBA14
    @JLBA14 6 років тому

    What’s the different between RE and INTERVAL. Re does what interval does. Interval only seems to matter if N1 number is more than 1. So if I wanted to do a basic time lapse. A photo every 8 seconds. I just change the RE to 8 seconds. I don’t touch INTVL... cuz INTVL can’t do that...

    Just re-watched this. Confusing , especially for someone doing long time exposures, say Milky Way shots. If I am using a 25 second exposure, I should set the interval to at least 30 seconds (25s+5s) to allow the camera to process each image.

    • @MakeSenseBoxing
      @MakeSenseBoxing 8 років тому +1

      +Joe's Photo & Video Channel Thanks for the reply! Let's say you want to take a photo every 3 seconds infinity times. Do you set "RE" and "Interval" to the same number of "3 seconds"? Cause if they're different numbers, then i'm assuming it would take photos at different intervals according to what RE and Interval are set to.

    • @MakeSenseBoxing
      @MakeSenseBoxing 8 років тому +1

      +Joe's Photo & Video Channel
      So for example if I have the following settings applied.
      Interval: 3 seconds
      N1: 3
      RE: 1 second
      N2: Infinity
      Then will the intervalometer take 3 photos 3 seconds apart, then wait 1 second, then continue and take another 3 photos 3 seconds apart followed by another 1 second pause?
      Sorry I have all these questions. I wish I had the product in front of me to test it out.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  8 років тому +1

      MakeSenseBoxing INTVl sets the time between shots for set N1, RE sets the interval time between REstarting the interval. N2 sets how many sets of N1 will go through. So for your setting listed. It will actually take a photo every 3 seconds for infinite amount of time. Technically there will be a light pause of 1 sec (RE) between every 3 shots.
      A better example would be INTVL 5, N1 3, RE 60min, N2 Inifinit. Were as this setting would take 3 photos(N1), 5 seconds apart(INTVL), once every hour(RE) until you decided to stop it(N2).
      Hope this helps.

    • @JoeJacksonJr
      @JoeJacksonJr  8 років тому +1

      MakeSenseBoxing If you want to set this remote up to take a photo say every 5 seconds a part for infinity. The best setting is to leave INTVL on .01, N1 to 1, RE to .04 and N2 to Infinite..

      Hi there, Stewart. Notice how the shutter cable which came with this NW-880 closely resembles the shutter cable you're using with your wireless remote switch there? I used this same NW-880 cable on both of my Viltrox and Pixel brand wireless triggers instead of the original cables those triggers came with. This way you are ensuring consistent, perfect internal terminal contact at all times between cable plug and your camera's accessory socket.

    N1: 01
