Finally a proper screen for this remote!

That looks really cool. Thanks for the intro to a new product I didn't know I "needed."

Another amazing review video Matt! I've been making timelapses for about a year, the ramping sounds quite interesting. Thanks for sharing, this was very helpful and informative.

I own the Pro Timer 3 I love it for the awesome simplicity size and versatility. I like the interval options as far as the ability to shoot less than 1 second and in ten second increments. I also own the Timelapse + View which adds to my options. Both work great with my Dynamic Perception motion slide and the Sapphire plus. I also own the discontinued Promote Control which also allows intervals below 1 second in tenth of a second increments down to .1 if your card and camera buffer permits. I love the manual programable bulb ramping time lapse features and focus stacking features. This device was ingenious for its time and still has nice features for today. All around the Pro Timer 3 is a great device and I was not disappointed and very pleased to add this to my arsenal of camera triggers.

Seems like a worthy upgrade over the 2.5, and even though I didn’t have it, the ramping was what still intrigues me, the 0.1” interval change is cool, but not crucial for me, 0.5 - 1 - 2s is good for me, I don’t know, maybe if I’ll have some spare money to burn I’ll finally give it a go 🤷🏼‍♂️ but it was a good review 👍🏻

I own the 2.5 version, the only thing I thought to improve was the knob. The new one looks way better! Also usb-c would be great for maybe the next version? Definitely the best remote on the market.

Great video mate! Maybe then I can stay with my ProTimer 2.5 because the difference is not so big. Thanks for the explanation 🙏

Hi, I like your videos and that is a nice endscreen in this video!

I'm currently using in internal timer options on my Sony cameras for everything except night work as the exposure ramping and timelapse options are very good. I use an inexpensive timer for astro simply to trigger the camera in conditions where it's so dark the camera will struggle for a correct exposure, or when I need very long exposure shots on the tracker. The LRT device looks like a good product (and would use the same cable as my SYRP gear) but the only thing I would be getting it for would be the <1 second interval, and only in cases where I can't achieve that with ND filters and continuous shooting, which makes it a bit hard to justify. Still love LRT and couldn't do a lot of my timelapses without it!

I use the 2.5 remote and love it, my only issue is the battery. When charging the indicator shows full all the time, when you remove the charging cable the indicated amount doesn't seem very reliable and I've had it switch off a couple of times. I now tend to leave it plugged into a PD source when using it, that's not really a problem cos I usually have the dew heater on the same PD anyway. I'd be keen to know if the PT3 is better in this regard.

Will be this little gadget good for the shooting Lightning?

[joshcarrick]

Great review 👍🏼... Toy I would love... Been trying various time lapse on Nikon d5300 and d7000... Trying to find a working remote for an old Lumix G1... But after far to many failed holy grails I just succeeded with a GoPro 7 in raw using Lrtimelapse. Love your work and enjoyed the beer 🍻 stream... Take care dude 👍

[stevefines]

Great info!

I use the Timelapse+ View. I bought a LRT 2.5 but couldn’t get it to work with the Sony a7r4, it only worked with older Sony cameras. The Timelapse+ works perfectly with the newer Sony cams.

Is there any alternatives to this one for 0.5 sec interval? I've had this for a year and it's been working fine so far, until on my last trip. I turned it off after use, and cannot turn it on anymore. The battery was about 50% on last time I see. A friend of mine had the previous option and warned me to keep this unit charged, as he has depleted its battery once and then cannot charge/turn on anymore.

[GiuseppePipia]

Whenever I'll upgrade my trusty and old 70D I'll be getting one of these. Looks minimal and does the job! I still use for my seldom timelapse photography the old and dismissed TriggerTrap, with a 2010 iPod! 😄 (Yes I would need an upgrade, but not much money flowing around 😞) It still gets the job done though.

[petrub]

can u use this for holy grail without the phone app?

[nikonfranky]

good review. i am not technical but i do timelaps but not the holy grale (day to night) has this thing auto day to night or do i have to change the settings when it becomes dark . i danot want thats becouse that is way to complex.

thanks for the review Matt, I use my Nikon intervalometer and also a Syrp genie mini, if I want some panning in the timelapse.
