gentLED-liveVIEW is our solution to trigger Canon stills cameras with
Liveview, and Sony NEX cameras. It
can be triggered directly from a standard Radio Control (RC) system, and
controls the camera shutter release and starts / stops video recording. This is
all achieved from one channel on the RC system by pushing the
"joystick" in either direction. Comes with a 25cm (10") servo
lead, & weighs <4grams.
Features include:
continuous operation:
This allows multiple pictures to be taken if the RC
servo control is held down in the shutter position. This is useful if you want the camera to keep taking
pictures automatically approximately every 1.5 second.
video operation: The switch needs to be held over for at least
0.75seconds to start and stop video. This ensures the video doesn't start or
stop if there is interference on the radio system.
simultaneous shooting:With Canon cameras it is possible to take stills whilst recording video.
More information: Operating Manual.
Note: To work effectively you need to be able to use this device on a center
biased joy-stick channel or have auxiliary switches available with 3 positions.
