the shutter button on the grip will not work. Do I need to do anything regarding settings on my camera for this function to work?

You must plug the unit into the camera with the cord that was provided with the kit.

Make sure the "patch cord" is connected between the grip and the side of the camera base. If it still doesn't work it may be the grip is malfunctioning.

You need a cable to connect between the grip and the gps port on the camera.otherwise, the shutter button on the grip don't work.in my case, the cable came included in the package.

It should work. It worked on mine without any further changes to settings. However, please not there needs to be at least one Nikon battery in the device or it will reject the battery.

I tried to use the button shutter release with my T4i, but found it awkward to activate with my thumb.

first things first, be sure that it's in auto mode. There's also a manual focus mode. To check all your settings, simply swipe the shutter button up, you'll see the manual setting sliders. Check if the focus slider rests in auto mode. If it is not, slide all the way to your left, and leave it there. If this is not the case, check for the updates. First you gotta be sure that you're running the latest version of both the OS and the camera app. If no updates available, try to uninstall and install the camera app again. If nothing works, could be a hw problem. Let me know how it goes. Cheers.

Yes. Send it back right away. The camera is faulty. Other than that, just to be absolutely sure go into camera settings and reset all to default before you make a final decision.

I would say try to find a way to reset the camera to all it's default settings to see if it was just something silly you pressed/touched. If that doesn't work, check your return policy. Other than that.....um....try a hammer.

There are 2 buttons located on the upper outside edges of the cameras that provide 3 settings. 1. IR ON 2. IR OFF ,3. IR AUTO . If not all of the positions work it's just a minor switch defect . Send it back for a replacement. The two buttons on the front are for On/Off and Camera Selection. Hope that helps.

Thankyou! I haven't used my camera in several months because of this same problem. I followed your suggestions. It took a few tries, but it is now working!! Just in time for Christmas!

Hi, sorry to hear that, i have no idea if fixing is needed, but have you checked if it is locked? there is a wheel you can can turn near the shutter relese that might be set to lock and thus you can't use it.hope this is the only issue and that this will solve your problem.

Maybe try pressing the reset button under the camera. Its a little dot inside the camera so you might need to use a needle to push it. Hope this helps :-)

I don't know either, but I suspect it won't work - in order to use the remote shutter, you have to run the Looq app - with the Looq app running, the button on the remote shutter arm will activate the camera -

I never had any problems with mine, still works perfectly. On the camera, there is there is switch option, as enter the camers the switch is @ top right hand, you will find a a camera symbol click to switch to your desired option. If it fails you know its faulty.

Hi , remove battery from camera, insert that plus another of the same battery into the grip, push into camera and tighten screw( making sure not to cross thread) connect cable to control aux. switch. Turn on and check operation. I had to return the first one as it had bad contacts. That's it, start shooting!

I gave the camera to a friend. She uses it to take photos of items to sell on eBay and she says it works great. I did not remember a button being on the camera.But I asked her to check for me. She said that nothing happened but she did get a message saying the button only works on "Windows Messenger." I hope that helps.

Double check to make sure it's not on "no flash" (lightning bolt with circle and slash through it) which youcan change by pressing the circle with the ok in the middle. If that doesn't work, turn the camera off, take the battery out,and then put back in and turn on. also make sure your camera is well charged. Otherwise, get service.

Recently returned one because the shutter would seize half way when the battery inside the grip went low. Instead of switching to use the battery inside the body, it didn't seem to do so, and I had a lot of problems. Missed a few shots during a wedding reception because of it.

make sure to read the film loading directions carefully, film has to be loaded when camera is on. If camera still doesn't work try maybe taking it in to a camera store and seeing if they can help you. If that doesn't work I would send it back. I just bougt this camera and I am not having this issue, so once you eliminate user error you may have received a glitchy one.
