I'm planning to build a 3-camera array to shoot astro timelapses. I'll use Sony A7Riii bodies with fisheyes lenses. I'd like to connect all three of them to one Pro Timer to trigger their shutters at the same time, is this possible? And if so, what extra hardware would I need so that I can run it from a single Pro Timer?

Since the LRT PRO Timer has only 2 ports, you'd need to build yourself a splitter release cable where you split one release cable into 2 outputs. I don't think such a solution is available for buying, but it's easy to solder by yourself. Just add a split to each of the 3 wires in the release cable. Those are 2.5mm TRS plugs.

Please note that you do such modifications on your own responsibility. We don't give warranty, if you short circuit the LRT PRO Timer and it gets damaged.

Just to follow up on this for future people if they come across it. I did a shoot with the 3 camera array for 360 degree timelapse. I did as suggested and split some of the trigger cables which worked perfectly. Here is a photo of the rig https://www.instagram.com/p/C7wJLX6KiSx

Looks great, thanks for sharing your experience! :-)
