Trigger Trap

[randrew1]

<p>Trigger Trap uses the various sensors on a smart phone to trigger a shutter release. The app is free. Dongles and connecting cables are required and are available at reasonable rates (under $50). <a href="/photodb/user?user_id=251161">Jos van Eekelen</a> posted a brief comment about this technology in January. Has there been any experience with this app?</p>

<p>I've not used Trigger Trap but do use DSLR Remote which is a free Android app.; it triggers the camera via IR, cable, audio or Bluetooth. The simple interface is DIY. <br>

<p>I have Trigger Trap and the Dongle, but I haven't used it much. For most of the really cool shots, like water drops, bursting balloons, etc, you need to trigger a flash in a dark room, not the shutter. </p>

<p>I use the Trigger Trap, though mostly just as a remote release. I've fiddled with some of the other trigger capabilities -- and they're fun and work -- but those features aren't something I have much use of beyond for playing.</p>

<p>Trigger Trap can trigger flashes, too, according to them: https://triggertrap.com/shop/tt-flash/. I haven't tried it.</p>

<p>I purchased it and till now only used it to demonstrate its capabilities. It works, it's great but does not fit into my present type of photography. (This may change next week/month - you never know).</p>
