Good little tool4
I just bought this after realizing I needed a remote of some sort.
First the good.
Just plug it into your camera and it works. Not having a wire attached to the camera is a definite bonus. The button is easy to press even if your fingers are cold. Works with antennae down at least at close range. Small enough to fit in my pocket, and both units are small enough to not take up any of that precious space in my camera bag.

The bad.
The remote requires a sewing machine screwdriver to replace the battery if it goes dead. There is no battery access like there is on the receiver. The battery for the receiver is not a standard grocery or convenience store purchase like a AA or AAA. If you are in auto/auto-focus mode, there is no positive feedback on the button to tell when you have pressed the button down enough to trigger the shutter.

All in all it has done a great job and performs as expected.

Works great4
I purchased this to use with my D300. It came in a basic no thrills box and came with the batteries. It has worked fine. I went on a three day workshop and used it every day all throughout the day. When I used it all day I left it on the camera the entire time and screwed it into the plug - when in my home studio I just plug it in without screwing it down, it stays on just fine. Overall I probably shot about 1000 pictures with it and it seems to be going fine. If I ever get to the point of convincing myself to put a piece of velcro on my camera, then I will secure it to the camera with a piece of velcro; I'm afraid that it dangling and swinging will eventually put stress on the wires and break them, but so far so good and still velcro free. There are some visible dip switches on the remote, but I didn't buy it for its look, I bought because of the good price. The switches enable you to change the frequency if needed.
Great product5
This product is far less expensive than others but works great. Have used it with my D300 with great success.
remote picture perfect5
this product worked perfect. easy to carry. easy to install. easy to use. i was a little skeptical when i made the purchase because i have not heard of this brand before. however, after using this for hundreds of pictures of my wife and i, and it not failing even once , i am giving it 5 stars!
