Just a quick reply mate, The wireless or infra remote can only operate the camera from the front, so you have either to be in front of the camera or at least pointing the remote at the front. I purchased the corded remote from ebay with a German seller £5.99 + £2.00 P&P. Try
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...534003296&rd=1 Also check his store as he does longer ones too. That's who I purchased mine from, delivered within a couple of days and only £2.00 P&P my first overseas purchase which couldn't of went any smoother. I've used my remote a couple of times, as well as half click for focus and full click for shot, you can also slide the button to lock open for longer exposures. Jessops also sell these and I was quoted £16.99 for the corded while the infra was cheaper at about £12.99. Acording to Jessops there corded version does not lock open....Just what the guy in the shop reckons???? Never had or used a remote before so I don't know what if any difference there may be between this and a more expensive version. But can't go wrong for the price as it does do what it says on the tin
Hope that helps.
Ken.
