It is a versatile way to capture images using lightning, sound, or laser to trigger your camera or flash. It features six different modes of operation with adjustable sensitivity depending on your given shooting situation.

An app for either iOS or Android allows you to control the MIOPS Smart from your smart phone using Bluetooth connectivity. When not using a smartphone, all functions can be controlled by a color LCD screen on the unit. The trigger also comes with a PC sync cable for connecting a flash.

Miops Smart+ Camera Trigger

The MIOPS Smart+ Camera Trigger is a versatile way to capture images using lightning, sound, or laser to trigger your camera or flash. It features six different modes of operation with adjustable sensitivity depending on your given shooting situation.

In addition to the lightning, sound, laser, timelapse, and HDR modes enable additional creative output. An external port can connect to various sensors to trigger your camera based on variables such as temperature, pressure, or humidity. An app for either iOS or Android allows you to control the MIOPS from your smartphone using Bluetooth connectivity. When not using a smartphone, all functions can be controlled by a color LCD screen on the unit.

Lightning Mode
A built-in light sensor detects changes in light and triggers your camera's shutter in just a few nanoseconds. You can capture only bright lightning strikes, or the smallest strikes, simply by adjusting the sensitivity. This mode can also be used to capture fireworks, or other events where you need to capture images based on changes in light.
Laser Mode
The MIOPS has a built-in sensor to detect when a laser beam is broken, thereby triggering your camera's shutter. This is useful for detecting subjects such as water drops, animals, or intruders when conducting surveillance.
Sound Mode
MIOPS's built-in microphone can detect sound, triggering your camera or flash to capture things like breaking glass, or a popping balloon. You can adjust the delay of the trigger as well as the sensitivity of amount of sound needed to trigger the shutter.
Timelapse Mode
This mode lets you specify the interval time anywhere between one second and one hour, as well as how many photos to take. The LCD screen will turn off to save energy, allowing you to take a timelapse photo for days, or even months if you use an external power source.
HDR Mode
Even if your camera doesn't have a bracketing feature, MIOPS allows you to set a center exposure, as well as the over and under exposures needed in order to make an HDR image.
External Port
A port on the MIOPS can accept any external trigger that has an output signal between 0V and 3V, such as a temperature, pressure, or humidity sensor.
Combining Sensors
You can combine sensors with MIOPS's Scenario feature by creating a custom scenarios with up to five different steps. For example, you can set the MIOPS to start taking timelapse photos only after it detects lightning.
Triggering Your Camera and Flash
MIOPS has two dedicated outputs, one for a flash, and another for a camera. They are electrically isolated from each other, reducing risk of a short circuit. The MIOPS trigger can be used with multiple cameras (not simultaneously) by simply changing the camera connection cable.
Mini-USB Port
The mini-USB port allows you to charge your Li-ion battery, as well as update the MIOPS's firmware.
Compatibility
MIOPS can be used with any cameras which have a remote shutter trigger port or an IR port, and any and flash units with a PC sync jack.

I've had countless issues with other triggers in the past, especially when you have multiple photographers shooting in the same spot using them! I had a night shoot recently and this was a dream to use! I cannot wait to test out with more scenarios!

So far I love it.

I like how this allows me to us my phone to trigger the camera. Funny thing is I live in Kansas and since purchased this lighting trigger we haven't had a single storm. and looking 10 days out there is nothing in the forecast hopping to get to use the lighting trigger soon but the wireless trigger part work very well. I did use it to shoot fireworks last week.

question

I have Nikon 800, 7000 and a 7200. Will one model of the Miops work on all 3 cameras. In other words is it compatible or do I need different triggers? Thanks. Patti
Asked by: Patti G.
The Vello 2.5mm Remote Shutter Release Cable for Nikon DC-2 Cameras included with the Miops Smart Camera Trigger with Cable for Nikon MC-DC2 Cameras Kit is compatible for use with the Nikon D7000 and D7200 DSLR cameras, both which use the MC-DC2 remote terminal. However, the Nikon D800 DSLR camera uses the Nikon 10-pin remote terminal. As such, you would have to purchase the Vello 2.5mm Remote Shutter Release Cable for Nikon 10-Pin Cameras, B&H # VERCCN125, to use the remote with the Nikon D800 DSLR camera.

What is the difference between the Smart+ and the ...

What is the difference between the Smart+ and the FLEX?
Asked by: Kanon
The differences between the two units is the FLEX offers camera control from a smartphone/tablet, allows you to transfer images to a smartphone, allows social media shering, lightning stitching, Live framing, image backup, focus stacking, assisted geo-tagging, and advanced HDR capabilities, as well as timelapse preview on the go and holy grail timelapse. The Smart+ offers stand-alonge usage without a smartphone, offers bulb ramping timelapse, and for remote & long exposure without smartphone, it has cable release, press & hold, press & lock, timed release, self-timer, and timed release with self-timer capabilities. It also has a built-in LCD screen and has battery life for 4 days, wherease the FLEX would have approximately 2 hours battery life.

question

What cable do I need for the Nikon d600?
Asked by: Anonymous
I don'y know. I have a Canon DSLR. But it's not strictly dedicated to Canon. I'm guessing it does, but check your Nikon manual for infra red. And ask B&H. They are very helpful in answering phone questions.
