*CR2032 battery included and pre-installed in the Transmitter
The MicroSync II Kit enables remote firing of strobes or most DSLR cameras up to 200 feet away. The radio signal technology works around corners and through walls, eliminating any line of sight issues that are common with infrared triggers.

The  MicroSync II transmitter slides in to the camera hot shoe and secures in place with a locking ring, with a lightweight and compact design ideal for mobile shooting. The MicroSync II receiver includes four interchangeable plugs that are compatible with most monolight or pack based flash systems with a synch voltage range between 3- 100 volts. Simply select the correct plug and then attach to the flash unit,- no additional sync cord is required.

Choose from sixteen available channels to insure that only your equipment fires. Channels 1 - 4 can be used with previous MicroSync receivers for additional flexibility. LCD panels on both the transmitter and receiver clearly display the set channel, which is visible at a glance.The Power Management system conserves battery power through a sleep state, then responds immediately when ready to trigger.

The MicroSync II can remotely fire most Canon, Nikon and Pentax DSLR models that have an electronic cable release input and an optional camera firing cord (sold separately). When properly configured, both the camera and flash unit can be triggered simultaneously.

The MicroSync II Kit includes all the components necessary to set up and trigger flash units within minutes when shooting in the studio or on location. The compact design minimizes bulk, while the easy to use functions allow for trouble free shooting.
