The remote release does what it should and that too well. For the price unbeatable. However, I can confirm that the lock really occasionally snaps accidentally. Since I hold the shutter often the other way around in his hand, not to slip with the thumbs up. That's very good. But even in "normal" operation that is probably matter of habit to a great extent. A slightly greater mechanical resistance would however have been desirable and has cost the fifth star. The pressure point for autofocus I find but always unerringly towards other reviews. The plug and the cable make a good impression and the cable has been hitherto almost always long enough.
All in all, this remote trigger a must for any recording tripod and long exposure anyway.
