  Recently acquired the above unit, does anyone have one? I am having trouble setting
  Up the laser function on it, it seems to be extremely sensitive or maybe it is just the way
  I have it set up. Any tips?

  Instructions & Testing:
  1. Make sure the camera and PatchMaster Laser Trigger are turned off.
  2. Fix the device by mounting to the camera using the hot shoe mount.
  3. Plug the release cable to the camera.
  4. First turn on PatchMaster Laser Trigger and adjust the delay to the desired level.
  5. Set the delay to the desired level. Fix your laser pointer and direct it to the optical sensor of your device.

  I don’t know if the above instructions are of any help, but worth a try.

  Thanks miki, it is really just getting the laser part working, I only have a laser pointer and trying to hold the button
  In all the time it is nearly impossible to keep it steady! I selotaped the button in the end… :lol: but it is still so sensitive
  That it is firing the shutter all the time, I would say it is a matter of getting it set up on a VERY solid surface so that nothing moves.
  I will persevere. The instructions make it sound so easy!
