Despite we do not yet carry shutter cables for Canon 400D..1000D, we tried an off-the-shelf 3.5mm to 2.5mm audio cable as a shutter cable for 450D today. And it worked! We will soon start carrying those cables as an official Promote Control accessory. Meanwhile, all of you Canon 400D/450D/500D/1000D folks – shutter cables are coming, right along with all associated goodies – faster HDR sequences, automatic Bulb for >30 second exposures in HDR, Manual Hold and so on. Stay tuned

400D..1000D Got Bulb in HDR!
Friday, July 24th, 2009HDRs from Las Vegas
Tuesday, July 21st, 2009I just got my hands on processing a series of bracketed exposures I took in Las Vegas this spring with the Promote Control and my Nikon D3. It was the first serious workout for a final production Promote Control unit, and it performed beautifully. Set the tripod, press one button, and have the full series shot. Pick your tripod and move on to the next location – press a button there and have another series. Sweet Here is one pic:
