This is not a Flash/Light unit itself.it is only a softbox attachment/cover to fit on a flash/speedlight. It has no electrical parts.

It does not have TTL capabilities,so it will work with the Canon, but you have to set the power setting manually. Of course the softbox is not a flash. It is just a light diffuser that mounts on almost any flash, but the Newer flash cannot be used for video and it does run on aa batteries and the rechargeable ones are reccomended.

Yes, I have a T3 and it works fabulously. I have had mine for about a year and a half and have not needed to change the batteries. It works every time.

It can work without the hot shoe. That is how I use it with my Rebel T3i. I just hang it from a carabiner on my backpack. Make sure your time stamp is correct with GMT and then the pictures will sync by the time stamp using the included software. Fiddly but it works.

I have 2 of these to extend the battery life of my two Canon 580 EXII flashes when we are on location shoots. I only shoot with a t1i and have the battery grips on both my main and back-up camera so I can use two batteries. I have had the cameras last for 6 hrs without ever being turned off and have never had them drain a fully charged set of batteries.

Have not used with a Canon T3, but I have used with the following Canon Cameras 5d, 5d mark ii, 5d mark III, 1d mark IV, 7D, 7D Mark 2, 70D, 60D, and 50D Given the T3 uses the same flash system as the above cameras, I would be quite confident it would work fine As for studio flash, I use it regularly with ALien Bees equipment, and have used them with other studio as well as remote flash set ups.

1) no. 2) I have used a battery pack and it charges the camera's battery just fine 1-4 hours and during this downtime you cannot use the camera till it is finished charging. After my purchase I contacted the company and asked several questions also made a few recommendations as a customer that could make the camera more user friendly etc. No response! I am currently researching for another camera that will fit my needs and use this one as a backup or spare.

Yes, it will work in the Cannon T3 camera. I have purchased 2 back-up batteries for my camera...just good to have spares available for when out taking photos...just in case! Joel

I would advise that you refer to your owners manual on the 5DII. It should work fine. I get full TTL capability with it on my Canon T3. I like that I can control the flash by adjusting it to over or underexpose by half increments. The only thing I don't like about it is that it only uses two "AA" batteries. This causes considerable recharge time for the capacitors on the flash, but for the price, it is a damn good deal. I get great exposure with the flash knowing how to control the flash. I've always liked Sunpak flashes and you can't go wrong with them. It's your call though. Good luck!i I would advise that you refer to your owners manual on the 5DII. It should work fine.

Yes, it works just fine on my Canon t3i. I use it for astronomy photos during meteor showers. The only "feature" that I don't like is the lack of a real "power off" button. When I'm through using it, I usually just remove the batteries.

The battery should last about 3 hours, That is if you don't keep it on for long periods at a time. I film about 15 min at a time and get right at 3 hours out of it.

It works perfectly for the T3i Rebel. I also have one (with a different plug) that works great for my Canon 7D and 20D. This thing is a real bargain.

I use this flash with my Rebel T3 and it works flawlessly. If you use the half power setting or lower the flash recycles almost instantly.

Hello.The short answer to the question is: No. The battery in my camera (CANON EOS REBEL XT DIGITAL SLR 350D DS126071 8.0MP) and the battery used in the Canon EOS Rebel T3 are different. The T3 uses a model LP-E10 battery. The XT uses a model NB-2L battery. The good news is: Amazon has a kit for the T3...same deal for $21. Here is the link to the product...

I have 2 batteries for my V10 [which I really like]. The flash uses battery quickly. The LCD uses juice fast, too. After you get familiar with the camera, set power conservation to the most conservative settings you can go with, and I think you will be pleased with the results.

Yes, that is the camera I have and it works fine. You have to remember, if taking pictures over a long period, to disable the camera auto shut-off. Otherwise the camera will go to sleep between frames and you will miss shots

I shoot with a Nikon that has options to trigger a remote flash. Not familiar with Canon T3i.
