![]() ![]() The unit has got an IR-sensor, light / laser sensor and a sound sensor. The Module Pro has got a wide range of built in sensors. And both use AA-batteries that are also supplied in the package. Both the Module Pro and the IR-module have a detachable rubber protector to protect them from damage. The Module Pro kit is a remote (with an LCD-screen) and an IR-module. The Captur Module Pro is an extension to the basic Captur kit, and it can only be used together with the basic kit. The Captur receiver mounted on a Joby Gorilla Pod with the Nissin i40 That means you are very flexible in using the Captur with all kinds of speedlights. But I’ve also used a Nikon SB700 without a hitch. While using the Captur for this review I’ve use my own Nissin i40 (a Sony specific model) without a problem. For instance Nikon recons the range it’s wireless technology is about 10 meters, so the Capturs range is about 10 times longer. Besides that the range of the Captur set is way bigger than built in wireless technology. That means you aren’t limited to using speedlights of the same brand as your camera is. ![]() Some cameras and speedlights have wireless functionality built in, so why use a Captur to do that? The big advantage of the Captur is that you can use it to activate about every type of speedlight, as long as the speedlight has got a ISO hotshoe. Wirelessly activating your speedlight to use it off-camera.īoth functions have a range of about 100 meters (outside) because it uses 2.4 GHz wireless technology.Wirelessly using your camera to take a photo.You do have to remember that you still don’t have iTTL when attaching the speedlight to one of the Captur units.īoth units are powered by to AA batteries (supplied in the kit) and because the units are quite compact they’ll easily fit your camerabag. Because the receiver has got a hotshoe you can still mount your speedlight on top of the receiver, while the receiver is mounted to your camera. Because the Captur has got a two stage shutter realease you can still focus first and release at just the right time. The transmitter turns in to a wireless remote, to activate the camera wirelessly. The second option is mounting the receiver on your camera and linking it to the camera using the supplied cable (the Sony version of the Captur is supplied with a micro-usb wire). You can’t use iTTL (or pTTL as Sony calls it), so you have to set your speedlight manually. When you take a photo the transmitter sends a signal to the receiver, that activates the speedlight. In that case you can use the transmitter to wirelessly activate a speedlight up to 100 meters away. You can mount the transmitter to your camera hotshoe, with the transmitter making contact with your camera with a single contact on the hotshoe mount. You can add extra receivers to the set to use multiple speedlights, those are about 45 euro’s a piece.īoth the receiver and transmitter have dual functionality as you can use them two ways. On the bottom of the receiver you’ll also find a standard tripod mount to mount the unit to a tripod. The receiver has got a flash hotshoe mount (without contacts, it’s just to mount the receiver on top of your camera), an own flash hotshoe to mount your speedlight on top of the unit, and the same shutter release and LED as the transmitter has. The transmitter has got a flash hotshoe, a two stage shutter release button (press half to focus, full to release the shutter) and a LED that lights up red if the unit is active and turns green when a signal is sent or received. The Captur basic kit consists of two parts, the receiver and the transmitter. Klik hier om de Nederlandse versie van deze review te lezen op het blog van Degreef & Partner. The Captur Module Pro isn’t brand specific and costs about 130 euro’s, but can only be used in combination with the Captur basic kit. You can buy the Captur basic kit for different camera models, there are different versions for Nikon, Canon, Sony and Olympus / Panasonic they all cost about 80 euro’s. It only works together with that basic kit. The Captur and Captur Module Pro are two separate accessories, where the Capture Module Pro is an extension of the ‘normal’ Captur basic kit. In this review I’ll tell you more about both the Captur basic kit and the Module Pro. Beside taking pictures wireless the Captur and Capture Module Pro have a lot of extra functions. Two smart extensions for your camera that allow you to control your camera wireless. That’s why they developed the Hähnel Captur and Captur Module Pro. Don’t like unnecessary cables attached to your camera? Hähnel doesn’t either. ![]()
