[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 486451, member: 9240"] And my apologies for not reading with comprehension - I missed the timed release. The one thing you can't get from the Freewave is a programmable timed release or intervals, you only have single, multi (which I never use), Bulb (used as described above) and a fixed timer (5 or 10 seconds - don't use that either). Honestly, for those functions I see little need for a wireless remote and use the wired if needed. That said, both of the units you link are [B][I]wired[/I][/B], not wireless, which is what you said you were looking for at the beginning. I see that the Neewer unit calls itself "wireless" but I see nothing that would serve as the remote trigger in any of the photos. I do see that they make a wireless Shutterboss for twice the price of the wired. For my money what I have (wired Shutterboss, 2 Freewaves) is money better spent since I like the ability to trigger multiple cameras and I don't know if the Shutterboss is configured in a way that I could get it to fire multiple cameras from a single base unit. Depending on your plans for using them you could get both a single wired and wireless for $10 more than the wireless Shutterboss, and expand to a second wireless if you ever wanted. [/QUOTE]
