Been using cheap £12 intervalometers off eBay on my Canon cameras for years now, they do the job but the constantly having to re do the settings annoys me and I've been having problems with my new 70d where the picture preview doesn't always come up on the screen! Was doing my nut trying to do self takes the other night. So I've been looking at more expensive and hopefully better quality options. Any body got any recommendations for me?

Search on Amazon for pixel TW-283 it's a wireless intervalometer plug the dongle part into your camera that has an on /off switch and keep the remote in your pocket it has power on/off button and saves what ever settings you input into it . I use it it on my canon eos m6 mirrorless camera and it works great yes it's expensive at £56 but does the job and saves the settings and none of that pissing around removing batteries to turn it off and losing your settings

Hannel are very good, I used one for years, until I bought a camera with one built in.

You might want to look into Magic Lantern. I use it with my old Canon 5D MK2. It may or may not work with the 70D, but you've lost nothing giving it a go.

Hopefully they do a dedicated canon one, the hahnel one I had was universal with a few end connecters, was a right pain as the connector would look fine when it had come loose

Not sure if the 70D is supported or not, but there was a script called CHDK that others had used on Cannon camera's - you can basically set it up for whatever frequency you wanted

Might be worth a google at least - I never got around to using it myself though
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
