Not badNovember 22, 2008 I wish the range was better, but it certainly does what is says it does. You have to be right in front of the camera as not too far away. Worked great for family portraits with the D40 2 second delay on remote.
It's greatNovember 18, 2008 Simply it's great. It does its job perfectly. Very small size too (which makes it easy to lose :)
Nikon ML-L3 remoteNovember 17, 2008 I used this with my D70. Little did I know, many of the higher end models (I now own the D300) don't even have the remote option for such a tiny price and a tiny product as this. It IS worth having but there are challenges:
1) You need to point this thing in the direction of the infrared sensor (you can't be behind the camera or have a lens between the side of the camera with the sensor on it - unless somehow my product was defective -which sometimes I wondered). It is often tough to get it to trigger.
2) This thing is tiny. A bit of anecdote here: I lost 2 of these so to prevent me from losing another, I added a bright blue bit of plastic string and taped it on with black electrical tape. I could put it around my wrist too. Anyway, the security at te airport doesn't like to see remote controls with WIRES attached. They though I was triggering a BOMB not a shutter.
Such a big review for such a tiny product. Anyway, this is good to have for a hobby photog. but isn't acceptable if you are working professionally because it can be frustrating to use and doesn't work from all positions.
Why wouldn't you own this?November 14, 2008 This little item should be in every Nikon users bag. I just got into digital slr photography. I got a Nikon D90. One of the first things I did was try different techniques, you know, playing with shutter speeds and apertures etc... I found out right away there were going to be times when I wanted to use slow shutter speeds and my hands and arms are not always steady enough to hold the lense perfectly motionless. I can set up the pod, step away and just hit the button. It also helps with taking family(group)pics. No more setting the timer then sprinting over to the group and taking my place just in time. No more of the group having to hold the smile for an eternity waiting for the snap. When you're ready you just click. I would have payed triple the price for this little gadget. At this price there is no reason to not own one...
Great ItemNovember 11, 2008 Great Item works great and for the price you can't beat it, you can bounce the signal off shiny objects so you don't always have to be In front of the camera
