The ShutterBoss II Timer Remote Switch for Cameras with a Canon 3-Pin Connector from Vello is a remote shutter release that provides photographers with enhanced levels of exposure control. Featuring specialized functionality such as continuous shooting, self-timer, long time exposures, and interval shooting, the ShutterBoss II is a huge asset to keep in your camera bag. This ShutterBoss is compatible with cameras that have a 3-pin connection, including Canon EOS 5D, 6D, 7D, and 1D series DSLRS, and select mirrorless cameras.

With the ShutterBoss you can set timer delays, exposure times, and intervals up to 99 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds in one-second increments. You can also select from 1 to 399 continuous shots or set the device to take an unlimited number of photos. Since you can set exposures without touching the camera you will capture clear, blur-free images. This remote has a 4-line backlit LCD status display for easy viewing of timer and exposure settings.

The ShutterBoss is great for time-lapse series of blooming flowers, sunsets, or the night sky. It can also function as a simple manual remote shutter release. Simply establish the camera's settings and push the remote's shutter button halfway to focus and fully to shoot. In bulb mode, slide the shutter release button forward to lock and the shutter will stay open until you release it. 

The ShutterBoss II has added two features that will offer easier control over the remote's settings. First is a power off option which gives you the ability to power down the remote to conserve battery life. Second is a reset option that allows the ShutterBoss settings to be reset to default settings with just the hold of two buttons. A default reset is a time-saver when you want to avoid changing each setting individually. 

Whether it's for simple shutter release, extended self-timer options, continuous shooting, long exposures, or time-lapse shooting, the ShutterBoss II Remote puts creative camera control in the palm of your hand.

question

What is new in version 2?
Asked by: John
According to Vello, there are two new additions with the Shutterboss II over the original model. A power off option has been added to simply help conserve battery life. The other option is a reset back to factory settings so that each setting does not need to be reset individually.

I purchased a Shutterboss a year ago for my 7D. The cable connection to the Canon socket was terrible - it was loose and only connected 20% of the time - so I returned it (thank you B&H) Is this a new and improved version?

Hi Barton! The short answer is no. You need the one that says, 'Vello ShutterBoss II Timer Remote Switch for Canon with Sub Mini Connection'. That one will work with your T4i. Hope that helps!
