Questions and Answers
Question:
Can
I also control my
camera with ZAP-SHOT? I don't have a Canon Digital
Rebel.
Answer:
ZAP-SHOT is tested with the
Canon EOS 300D/350D/400D/450D/500D/550D / Digital Rebel/XT/XTi/XSi/T1i/T2i. However, ZAP-SHOT basically replaces the
cable remote switch.
That means, if your Canon EOS camera allows the use of e.g. the remote switch
RS60-E3 (like various models of the Canon Elan,
Rebel and EOS Series do), it should work.
ZAP-SHOT might also work with other cameras with a
cable remote switch input. If you know about the plug pin-out of your camera,
you can build a simple adapter that goes in between ZAP-SHOT and your camera.
For
the Canon pro / prosumer cameras (Canon 50D, 40D, 30D, 20D, 10D, 7D, 5D, 5D Mark II, D60, D30, Canon 1D, 1Ds, 1D Mark II, 1Ds Mark II, 1D Mark II N, 1D Mark III, 1Ds Mark III, 1D Mark IV)
are ready made adapters available.

Question:
How much range can I expect with ZAP-SHOT?
Answer:
The range depends very much on the environment it
is used in. Other transmitter (e.g. pagers, garage door openers, …) will
influence the range. Also other obstacles, e.g. bushes or trees, can lower the
range.

Question:
Can I replace the batteries by myself?
Answer:
Yes, both units, the key fob transmitter and the
receiver, incorporate common low-cost, easy to get battery types and can be opened without tools.
ZAP-SHOT comes with a documentation that shows how to replace the batteries.

Question:
Can I control one ZAP-SHOT receiver with multiple
remote control key fobs -or- vice versa, multiple ZAP-SHOT receivers with one
remote control key fob?
Answer:
ZAP-SHOT allows the user to select the address
for the transmitter and the receiver. Therefore you can either set up unique
TX-RX pairs or control multiple receiver (cameras) synchronously with one
transmitter, or, control one receiver (camera) with multiple transmitters from
different locations.

Question:
What, if my ZAP-SHOT
interfere with another RF
application on the same frequency (e.g. garage door opener, wireless
thermometer)?
Answer:
If it’s just a matter of the address selection
(e.g. your neighbor also uses a ZAP-SHOT), just move to a different address
pair. If there’s a stronger transmitter than the ZAP-SHOT key fob transmitter,
you won’t be able to use ZAP-SHOT (at least at that specific spot).
