I just bought this, connected it. The Neewer Battery pack shutter button focuses but won't take the picture. What is going on...?

Unmount it and redo it again. Unlock the release botton by lining the white lines. If it doesn't work after the try, send it back.

1) Just as NikonBrad suggests, try it in manual mode. 2) Can you take the same shot, in auto, with the regular body trigger? If so, the unit isn't sending the signal to record.

Have you tried shooting with Manual focus? (will the button release the shutter at all?) If the shutter still wont release i'd contact the seller.

There's a power switch around the shutter button. Turn it on and it should work.

Make sure that when you set it up for use that you go into the camera settings and enable the remote for "quick response." I've noticed that when I go to long without using the remote it enters a stand by mode and I have to re-enable it again. If that doesn't work then you might need to change the battery. Happy shooting!

Try taking out the battery..I have had that happen before with my other Kodak cameras, but it was only temporary..I just fiddled with it until it worked. Some times the lens gets stuck...hopefully you won't have to get a new one.

I just got my camera back from the Cannon Factory and they said found that it was an internal issue, they replaced "something" and sent it back and it works just fine! Sorry this isn't a more helpful post for those of you without a warranty! I'll keep looking through my paperwork at home and see if they were more specific AT ALL in stating what the mystery "something" was that didn't work. Just wanted to update as I promised I would!

I turned that on with my sony a7 as well, but I can't get it to work. I removed the battery film. what should I do now...

Try going to the set up menu, go down several items till you get to "Release w/o lens," and enable this. This allows the shutter to work without a lens (which is what the camera thinks when there is an adapter in place).

I'm having this issue, too. Camera seems to get confused and the whole frame becomes blurry rather than focusing on the one object. It takes several attempts to register what I'm trying to do, and then it's too late - opportunity has passed and subject has moved. Time to really study my manual I guess or maybe this is a shortcoming with this camera.

You could try getting a new battery and make sure you have the right setting on your camera.

Thanks MC.While I was frustrated it occurred to me to do the same so I attempted to remove the battery. Like you said, "it works every time." Thank you again. I think now I'll really enjoy this camera.

two options here; for my experience whit the product looks like the battery don't work or exhausted or maybe the product is defective, because you don't need the battery for snap photos whit out timer.

Try resetting the camera. You might also try connecting the charger cord to see if a charge jolt would make a difference.

I had a similar problem. The sony analyst walked me through power resetting and pulling batter + memory card. None of the checks corrected the problem. I used the 'tap it on a hard surface' technique and it is back up and working. The pulling the camera lens did not work so the tapping technique will be used until we tap it into its grave.

Good morning, Sorry it took so long to respond; I have been on vacation. I hope that your problem was resolved. I tried my unit for the first time yesterday; and the main problem that I had was making sure to push down the button down on the transmitter and hold it there for several seconds in order for it to operate. Also where to place the receiver on the camera hot shoe in order to receive the single; had the receiver facing backwards so that it would operate. Als make sure the batteries are in correctly. Bottom line, you get what you pay for. Good luck and have a great week. Jeff

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!

May be out of focus. The camera has auto focus but you have to let the pic come into focus prior to hitting the button. Some times more light is needed.

Put the camera in rapid fire, manual focus, out the trigger in bulb... hit it once and the shutter will stay engaged.That might work.

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.
