Product highlights and buying context
Whether capturing images in the studio or on location, the Vello FreeWave Wireless Remote Shutter Release adds flexibility and versatility to your shooting style. You can interact with a model, view the scene or set from alternate angles, or set a camera by a stream to capture an image of a bear hunting while you remain at a safe distance away. This particular FreeWave unit is compatible with most Canon cameras that have a 3-pin connection.
This versatile shutter release features Smart Code technology so you can configure it to operate on up to 16 million possible radio channels. You can easily switch channels to zero in on a frequency that provides optimal range and functionality.
The FreeWave operates with radio frequency (RF) technology, so a direct line of sight is not necessary. Radio waves pass through objects including windows and walls. It is unlike other wireless remotes on the market that operate on an Infrared (IR) system and require a direct line of sight between transmitter and receiver to make things work.
Since touching the camera even lightly while capturing an image can create a blurred image, the FreeWave eliminates this by tripping the shutter without any disturbances. This is critical when photographing subjects up close, as well as for long exposures and macros. It is also extremely valuable when photographing nature, wildlife, and other subjects that are difficult for you to get close to.
EOS 10D, 20D, 30D, 40D, 50D, 5D, 5D Mark II, 5D Mark III, 7D, 1D, Mark II, Mark IIn, Mark III, Mark IV, 1DS, Mark II, Mark III, 1DX
The FreeWave's Smart Code feature allows you to operate on 16,000,000 possible radio channels. No DIP switches to set, and one transmitter can trigger multiple receivers. The units have been synchronized at the factory, so your system works right out of the box. To maximize signal quality and range, use the Smart Code technology to sense the quiet frequencies in your environment and synchronize on that channel.
The FreeWave can fire the camera's shutter from distances up to 320 feet.
Trigger your camera wirelessly or wired. Wired triggering works even if the receiver battery is dead or missing.
Press the transmitter's button halfway to focus and fully to trigger the shutter.
The two-second delay function gives you extra time to get into position.
You can take multiple shots with one press of the trigger.
With the FreeWave you can control the length of the exposure remotely.
Two LED indicators confirm prefocus and exposure when in the wireless mode.
The FreeWave includes a camera release cable that works with your particular camera model. By simply changing to another cable (additional purchase required) a single receiver can work with many other cameras as well.
