With the built-in PIR sensor, Pluto Trigger can detect animals’ body heat and take photos.It can also wait until a person is smiling to shoot a photo, or take pictures triggered by motion or vibration. You know those fancy photos of water droplets colliding in mid-air? There's a mode for that too(Droplet Valve required) -- 24 modes in all.

Après quelques tâtonnements et grâce aux reviews sur Youtube, de belles choses commencent à sortir de mon appareil photo grâce à la valve. Concernant le trigger et ses diverses fonctionnalités, je n'ai pas encore testé le reste.
217/5000 excellent accessory purchased for photographing especially in hdr with very beautiful results. now I also want to try the "lightning" and sound modes as soon as I get a chance to do so. very happy with the purchase
Splendid results first time out of the box. Florida vacation 2019
Takes a while to learn to use it properly but it has served me well.
My only disappointment is that I haven't had a thunderstorm to photograph yet! Otherwise it is really easy to use, the app is great - I like the fact that you can see the settings so easily. I looked at al lot of triggers out there and Pluto was the most versatile and 'future proff' so as my skills develop I won't need to go out and buy yet another gadget for my camera. This one does it all - and it's a good price as well - especially considering the laser trigger is packaged as well; everything you need to get started is in the box. I took a series of Milky Way photos with my Pluto and stacked them - I'm really happy with the results. I would recommend Pluto over everything else.
The Trigger is great when combined with the water drop kit represents great value for money and by far the cheapest way to get in to water drop. The unit is not perfect the set times are not super accurate and are often 0.1 to 0.2 seconds short, over long exposures this makes zero difference to the image quality but worth mentioning, App has loads of functionality I have not even tried all the modes yet
Another great tool to add to my creative duffel bag! Easy to use, sets up easily and the menus are terrific. I am very pleased with the Pluto trigger for what I have used it for so far. Seeking every opportunity to learn all about it. Great design including the app. No buyers remorse with this!
I haven't used all of the features yet, but from what I've seen it works great. The lightning and intervalometer settings along with the iphone app are worth the purchase alone.
