The FreeWave Fusion Basic 2.4 GHz Wireless Trigger System for Canon from Vello is a versatile, reliable remote control kit that will trigger a camera, shoe mount flash, and studio lights from up to 328' away. Sixteen discrete channels provide the ability to avoid interference from other users while maximizing your creative potential.

Use the system to expand the capabilities of a shoe mount flash or studio lights without the hassle of tangled PC cords. The FreeWave system is also great for capturing wildlife. Simply place the camera on a tripod and use the FreeWave Fusion trigger as a remote camera release from a distance. The trigger allows camera's shutter remotely to avoid unwanted camera vibration for sharper macro imaging. The 2.4GHz radio signal will pass through walls, windows, floors, and other obstructions.

The FreeWave Fusion Basic 2.4 GHz Flash Trigger Set is compatible with most major manufacturers' shoe-mount flashes with manual power control. Pentax, and Sony Minolta-type shoes are not compatible. Each unit runs off two AAA batteries (not included).

Wireless Triggering
The FreeWave Fusion Basic can wirelessly trigger hot shoe flashes, studio lights, or a camera from up to 328' away. It can also be used as a wireless "cable release" for wildlife or on a tripod for macro work.
2.4 GHz Frequency Signal
This low frequency signal can pass through and around obstructions offering greater flexibility in placement of flash units and cameras.
Flash Sync up to 1/250 sec
Take advantage of sync speeds that match the synch speed rating of a camera up to 1/250 sec.
16 Channels
The wireless system's 16 channels allow transmitter/receiver settings to be changed to avoid interference from other wireless devices.
Multi-Purpose Flash Trigger
Multiple receivers to trigger many flashes may be used with a single transmitter. Multiple cameras may also be triggered with additional receivers and shutter release cables.
LED Indicators
Confirm communication of trigger system with pre-focus, shutter release, and flash trigger in wireless mode.
Long Exposure Photography
Use the FreeWave Fusion Basic on a tripod with a camera's Bulb setting to make exposures as long as the camera will support without touching the camera.
Dual-Function Shutter Release Button
Press halfway to focus, press fully to trigger the shutter.
Wildlife Photography
Release the shutter from a safe distance for photos of hard to approach wildlife.
Macro Photography
Use the transmitter as a wireless "cable release" to avoid accidental movement when shooting close-up.
Single Shot and Continuous Shooting Modes
Allows the cameras motor drive to be used for rapid sequences.

question

Does this remote trigger support full TTL automation? I'm using a 80D with a 580EX-II flash and need full automatic exposure control with the off-camera flash. Thanks.
Asked by: Nicholas
No. This is a basic flash trigger. It has 1 pin for the hot shoe. There is no TTL communication. A flash would need to be set manually to work with these triggers.The Vello Captain has TTL communication. See this link: http://bhpho.to/29FzIz4
