The Lightning Strike! Micro MT PRO 3.0 Shutter Trigger for Select Nikon Cameras by AEO Photo is a light and motion activated camera triggering device designed to capture images of lightning, fireworks and other light producing events. We have all tried to shoot photos of lightning or fireworks, probably with limited success, but the Lightning Strike! Micro MT PRO 3.0 Trigger can give us a leg up on that tricky enterprise. Attached directly to your camera's hot shoe, the Micro MT PRO 3.0 detects lightning in the distance and triggers your camera in an incredible 0.1 milliseconds to capture the power and beauty of a lightning strike.
Unlike the other Lightning Strike! models, the MT is so designated because it is a multi-trigger system with a Lightning Mode and a Motion Mode, operated by a simple switch. In Lightning Mode, the sensor reacts to bursts of light in day or night and in Motion Mode, a 10M PIR sensor with a fresnel lens will trigger the camera when movement is detected within a 10 meter radius.
The Lightning Strike! Micro MT PRO 3.0 is extremely compact and well designed, measuring 2.75" x 2.25" x 0.75" (7.0 x 5.7 x 1.9 cm). The MT PRO 3.0 model features a locking hot shoe and tripod mount and a manually controlled sensitivity override for better triggering control in varied situations. Unique to the Lightning Strike! are their proprietary electronics which allow for image review after every shot and improved noise immunity to help eliminate unwanted firings.
Little touches, like the low profile LED to minimize reflections when shooting through windows and a "positive action" ON/OFF switch that will not activate accidentally and drain your battery make this a perfect tool for storm chasers. The Micro MT PRO 3.0 is compatible with most DSLR cameras and utilizes cables specific to each camera. This model comes with a MC30 cable and is compatible with Nikon F100, F5, F6, N90, N90S, DCS-620, D1, D1X, D1H, D2, D2X, D2H, D2S, D3, D4, D3X, D100 (with MB100 option), D200, D300, D700, D800 cameras.
Note! Individual camera shutter lag and exposure settings will determine how fast your camera fires.
- Compact, well-designed lightning trigger, measuring 2.75" x 2.25" x 0.75" (7.0 x 5.7 x 1.9 cm).
- Multi-trigger (MT) switch allows for dedicated function as either lightning activated trigger or motion activated trigger.
- Manual Sensitivity Control Override allows for greater triggering control to correspond with each and every shooting environment.
- Low profile "positive action" slide switch will not accidentally activate and drain battery.
- Low profile LED minimizes reflection of light when used shooting through windows and windshields.
- The Lightning Strike! Micro MT PRO 3.0 version has upgraded to improve its noise immunity (shutter hammer) from man-made sources. This helps to reduce unintended camera firings.

Arrived with dead batteries. Two Radio Shacks and Frys did not carry; finally found a set and tested device. Worked perfectly. Exactly what I want to shoot fireworks and lighnting displays.
Battery issue is a problem but can be solved. Manufacturer should provide more information on battery options.

Comments about AEO Photo Lightning Strike! Micro MT PRO 3.0 Shutter Trigger for Select Nikon Cameras:
I have wanted to shoot lightening for a long time. Never was ready when it happened. Now I just set up the camera on a tripod in the general direction, turn on the Lightening Strike Micro Pro 3.0 shutter release and let it fire the camera as lightening strikes. This model also can be set to motion activation but I haven't used that feature yet.I have captured several strikes and I get excited when a storm comes up. It works through glass so you don't have to be outside in the rain. Seems to be well constructed and has been totally reliable.
