I think B&H carries Flash triggers & extension tubes in their own Vello brand. I'm looking for such for my Canon & was wondering if anyone has had an experience with them.

Hi Raymondh,

I have two Vello battery packs for my Nikons, they work just fine and a lot cheaper than the Nikon brand.

At the recommendation of another photog, Ive just purchased the ext tbe set for canon from Amazon. I believe I paid $79. They have metal mount and stack well. I havent been shooting much with them yet.

Every Vello product I have used has performed as expected and B&H stands behind every sale. Can't see how you can go wrong. ;)

I thought Vello was its own brand, not B&H private label. I have the IR Remote Control for Canon. Vello provides no documentation other than read the camera manual. For my Canon 60D, I have to set the camera to self-timer. Confusing? Yes, but that is how it is.

I was just looking to buying the Vello intervalometer for Canon. So, I'm interested in this thread. Also, not sure Vello is a B&H "product".

Your probably right - I was on Adorama's site & they didn't carry it.

I have been using that for a while for making time lapse videos and it works great.

Used it last night to make this 30 second TL:

I use a number of Vello products; LCD protectors, battery grips, remote releases, etc. They're excellent! Vello is not a subdivision of B&H. They just market the products along with a number of others.

B & H has the Vello brand, I just purchased the 35.00 model a week or so ago. So far have used a few times and has good range, deck to feeder about 100 feet. Durability unknown but I,m sure it will get a workout this coming week in Maine

Nice time lapse. How about their battery grips compared to Canon?

Has anyone used this? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/753841-REG/Vello_RWII_C_FreeWave_Plus_Wireless_Remote.html " rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/753841-REG/Vello_RWII_C_FreeWave_Plus_Wireless_Remote.html

Thanks, glad you liked the TL.
I have a Vello battery grip on one of my 7Ds and it works just fine.
