Using a modified cable and LRT Pro Timer 2.5 - gs87nt - 2019-04-16
Hi there!
I would like to know if the LRT Pro Timer 2.5 can be used with a cable modified, I mean a cable without autofocus connection!
Thanks!

It works, but I'd not recommend to do so, since the LRT Pro Timer has a sophisticated management of the AF-Signal and uses it very targeted to wake up DSLM cameras for example. Apart from that you can control the usage of the AF-Signal via the timer settings. I've explained the configuration in the manual: https://lrtimelapse.com/lrtpt/advanced-features/
Bottomline: to unleash the full potential of the LRT Pro Timer, use a standard (not hacked) release cable.
